"The Hills were among the earliest of the linen merchants to establish a mass bleaching plant." Hillmount, a fine three-storey Georgian mill-owner's house, was built by one of this family perhaps about 1720, probably around 1760, certainly before 1778. Shown to be the seat of Mr John Hill in Lendrick's map of 1780, and Williamson's revision of 1808. It seems that the Hills prospered during the Napoleonic wars, adding the handsome single-storey bow-fronted bays at either side, and excavating the lake in front of the house when "the material taken out was distributed in such a way as to suggest to a stranger the remains of extensive earthworks". But by 1825 Mr Hill had failed; he was imprisoned for debt in Carrickfergus Gaol, and it was there that the purchase of the house, bleach-green and mill was negotiated by Dr William Young, one of the ubiquitous Youngs of Ballymena.

n 1768 land was advertised for sale, apparently as being in the estate of Rolleston Humphrey Esq (Belfast Newsletter, 5th Feb 1768). It included:

"?that Parcel of Ground called Barley-Hill, with several Houses, Tenements and Gardens, now in the Possession of James Cobham, Thomas and James Magill, James Penny, Matthew Barry and William Barkley?"

However, this was countered on the 12th February:

WHEREAS an Advertisement has been inserted in the Belfast News-Paper, that some Lands and Tenements near the Town of Carrickfergus, in the Possession of James Magill, Thomas Magill, James Cobham, Matthew Barry, and others, called the Estate of Rolleston Humphry, Esq.; are to be sold. This is therefore to give Notice, that Michael Savage, by his last Will and Testament, bearing Date the 17th Day of December, 1678, did devised the said Lands and Tenements to Thomas Orpin, and Sarah his Wife, their Heirs, or either of them, for ever: That the said Thomas Orpin, by his last Will and Testament, bearing Date the 21st Day of August, 1719, bequeathed the Tenements adjoining the Barley Hill to Mary Barry, otherwise Wissencroft; Margaret (F/P)eny, otherwise Wissencroft, and Others, who are now in the actual Possession of said Tenement, and have been for these 34 Years past: That the said Mary and Margaret, as also Ann Laverty, otherwise Wissencroft, and Martha Peny, otherwise Wissencroft, the Grand Children of said Thomas Orpin, are the lawful Heirs of said Lands and Tenements: That neither the aforesaid Rolleston Humphry, nor any other Person whatsoever has an Right or Title to sell said Lands of Tenements; whereof every one designed to purchase said Lands or Tenements, or any Part thereof, are desired to take Notice.
Dated at Carrickfergus, this 10th Day of Feb. 1768.

I'm guessing the Matthew Barry mentioned was married to Mary Barry, otherwise Wissencroft. So potentially it could have been:

Matthew BARRY married Mary WISSENCROFT, granddaughter of Thomas ORPIN?
- Matthew BARRY married Ann REILEY, daughter of Garret REILEY

Here's a connection between my last post and the Hills of Hillsmount. Belfast Newsletter, 1st March 1771:

To be set and entered upon immediately, in the Liberties of Carrickfergus, one Farm of Land called Carnamrock, on which the late Mr. Matthew Barry lived. Said Farm contains 36 Acres, Plantation Measure, and is divided into proper Parks, with Quickset Hedges, and is very convenient to Lime. Proposals to be received for the above Farm by John Hill of Hillsmount, near Ballymena. No Preference to be given to any one. Also four small Farms to be let in Drumra by said John Hill. The above Advertisement to be continued only four Times. Dates this 23d Day of Feb. 1771.

So one Matthew Barry dead by 1771, another still alive in 1773 ? Belfast Newsletter 28th May ? 1st June 1773:

To be set from the first Day of November next, for such Term as may be agreed upon, a Farm of Land, situate in the North-East Division of the Liberties of Carrickfergus, known by the Name of Bashford's Land, containing about 37 Acres, all Arable and Meadow. Proposals in Writing will be received by James Bashford, at his House in Belfast; and the Lands will be shewn by Matthew Barry who lives on and takes Care of said Farm. Dated May 31, 1773. This to be continued four Times.

Belfast Newsletter, 24th Apr 1772:

Dropt on the Road betwixt Ballymena and Portglenone, on Saturday last, a Silver Watch, Maker, William Birnie, Dublin, No. 46; on the outer Case is engraved a Coat of Arms; the Crest a Hand and broken Spear; Dial-plate enamelled, Steel Chain, two Seals; on one of them an H and E in Cypher on one Side, on the other a Hawk; on the other Seal, which is Triangular, is the same Arms in different Sides, &c. Whoever returns said Watch, &c. to Mr. John Hill at Hillsmount, near Cullybackey, Mr. Hugh Edmonston, Merchant in Ballymena, Mr. Andrew Crawford, Merchant in Portglenone, or the Printers hereof, shall have a Guinea Reward. Dated 21st April, 1772.

Belfast Newsletter, 3rd-7th November 1775:

WHEREAS on Sunday Night last, being the 29th of October, the Bleach-yard of John and Charles Hill of Hillsmount, near Ballymena, in the County of Antrim, was audaciously entered into by some Villains unknown, who feloniously lifted and carried off said Bleach-yard nin Piexces of 3-4th and 8-8th wide Linen, the Property of John, Charles, and James Hill?

I wonder what relationship John, Charles and James were to each other.

Note on the Orpins, again from The History of Carrickfergus:

"John Orpin was a pewterer and plumber and of mean descent; the way he came to improve his fortune was by being one of the Executors of the Lady Langford, by which he got considerable, but not justly." He died 1661, leaving his possessions here to his son Thomas, a glazier, who died 1719, bequeathing his property to his eldest son John, and his daughter Margaret Wisencraft, and offspring. ? Gill's MSS. MS.

Belfast Newsletter, 6th Dec 1768:
On Tuesday last was married, Mr. John Hill of Drumra in the County of Antrim, Linen Draper, to Miss Berry of Carrickfergus, an agreeable young lady, with a Fortune of 1500l.

1776 ? Charles Hill, Drumra ? listed in the Deputy Court Cheque Book, election for Antrim
1776 ? James Hill, Drumra ? listed in the Deputy Court Cheque Book, election for Antrim
1778 ? a T. Hill, Esq., of Drumra raised a corps called the Portglenone Volunteers

I think Drumra may be Drumraw, a townland roughly halfway between Portglenone and Cullybackey.

Now that I've put John Hill and Anne Barry's marriage into my tree it has brought up another tree on Ancestry. It has John Hill's parents as the Rev. J. Hill and Ann Moore. It has Anne Barry's parents as Matthew Barry and Ann Coleman. I don't know what the sources are.

Before seeing the above tree I remember making a mental note about a Rev. J Hill who I thought might be connected to John Hill of Hillmount. I can't remember where I saw it though!

Hillmount House, Cullybackey

I've just realised this was one of my favourite houses featured in Brett's Buildings of County Antrim. He says:

"The Hills were among the earliest of the linen merchants to establish a mass bleaching plant." Hillmount, a fine three-storey Georgian mill-owner's house, was built by one of this family perhaps about 1720, probably around 1760, certainly before 1778. Shown to be the seat of Mr John Hill in Lendrick's map of 1780, and Williamson's revision of 1808. It seems that the Hills prospered during the Napoleonic wars, adding the handsome single-storey bow-fronted bays at either side, and excavating the lake in front of the house when "the material taken out was distributed in such a way as to suggest to a stranger the remains of extensive earthworks". But by 1825 Mr Hill had failed; he was imprisoned for debt in Carrickfergus Gaol, and it was there that the purchase of the house, bleach-green and mill was negotiated by Dr William Young, one of the ubiquitous Youngs of Ballymena.

I'm still convinced John Hill of Hillmount was dead by 1788, so if there was still a John Hill there in 1808 I think it was someone else.

In 1827 the "House and Lands of Drumra, situated on the main road communicating between the considerable Market Towns of Ballymena and Portglenone" was to let, with applications to be made to Mr. Thomas Hill, Hillmount, Ballymena.

In 1829 there are ads for the "Bleach Mills, House, & Lands of Hillmount, situated about 3 miles from Ballymena" which were to be sold by auction in September. The ad also mentions the lands and mansion house of Drumra, also for sale. "Further particulars may be known by applying to Thomas Hill, Hillmount, Ballymena."

The adds stop in September 1829, so presumably the properties were sold. However, new ads reappear in 1832 for an auction in July that year, now just for the Hillmount properties (not Drumra) ? "for particulars, apply to Alex. & John Montgomery, Belfast".

This time it looks like there was no sale, because the ads continue, with a new auction date set for September 21st, then 29th October and finally the 14th December at which point they stop again.

The Warder and Dublin Weekly Mail, 8th May 1833, lists Thomas Hill, late of Hillmount, county Antrim, bleacher as an insolvent debtor, his case to be heard on the 23rd May.

In May 1833: "HILLMOUNT BLEACH GREEN: the interest in the Lease to be Sold" with proposals to be received by "Mr. B. Alex. Cannon, No. 4, D'Olier-Street, Dublin; or John Gower, Esq., Roundwood-park, Newtown, Mount-Kennedy."

April 1834: "To be sold or let" ? "Proposals will be received ? by John Gower [as above] ? Thomas Reilly, at Hillmount, will show the Premises."

Belfast Commercial Chronicle, 11 May 1836:
Of typhus fever, at Hillmount, near Ballymena, on the 7th inst. Margaret, wife of Robert Young, Esq. and daughter of Wm. Gihon, of Hillhead, Esq.

After this, as suggested by Brett, the Youngs continue at Hillmount for a few decades. (Incidentally, Robert Young was my 1st cousin 5 times removed.)

Hillmount House, Larne

Not to be outdone by the Hills of Ballymena, the Hills of Larne also appear to have had a "Hillmount House".

This ad is from the Belfast Commercial Chronicle, 2nd Nov 1822:

TO BE LET. For any Term no exceeding Twenty-One Years. Hillmount House and Gardens, with or without the Farm attached thereto. The House and Offices are in complete condition for the reception of a genteel Family ? situate on the Sea Shore, in a beautiful Bay, on the Road from Larne to Glenarm, within 1 ? miles of the former. The beauty of the situation, fine air, and Sea-bathing, cannot be exceeded. Apply (if by Letter, post-paid) to the Proprietor, GEORGE HILL, Larne, Oct. 23, 1822.

Is this the George Hill who married Mary Hill of Hillmount, Cullybackey?

This could be his death, Limerick Evening Post, 1st Jul 1828:
At Larne, George Hill, Esq.

That's not very informative, but a copy of his will survives at PRONI.

The Derry Journal, 22nd Sep 1835, contains a report that on one night in the neighbourhood of Larne, three valuable horses were stolen:

?one belonging to Mr Robert Shaw, of Cairncastle, another to Mr Joseph Barr, of Ballycraigey, and the last to Mr William Kirk Martin, Hillmount. It would appear that the fellow who stole them had galloped them the whole way to the Waterside ? neither of them being saddled; and, having rested them there for a short time, he put them on board one of the steamers of this port, which was on the eve of her departure for Liverpool. Mr Martin traced the thief to Derry; and having taken a passage in the first steamer to Liverpool, he there discovered two of the stolen horses in the livery stables of a Mr Lucas, who had purchased them from a person who represented himself to be their owner, and who had gone off with the remaining horse to a fair in the country. Mr Martin got the two horses delivered up to him; and Mr Lucas, we understand, set out in pursuit of the thief.

The Northern Whig, 1st Feb 1842, a "Mr. Richard Hill, Hillmount" is mentioned in a report on a ploughing match of the "County of the Town of Carrickfergus and Kilroot Agricultural Society".


By the time of the c1860 Valuation Book, Hillmount House in Drains Bay is still shown as belonging to the representatives of George Hill. This continues all the way through till 1928/9 ? 100 years after George Hill's death!?

The tenants for most of that time by the way were McNeils ? presumably descendants of George Hill mentioned in the first post (one of George Hill's daughters married a McNeil).

p.s. This house was for sale recently and can be viewed online if you fancy a nosy. Apparently built in the early 19th century, which fits with George Hill's 1822 ad.

4. Capt. Robert Adams, emigrated to Australia; m. 1844 Jane Anderson (Any relation to the previously mentioned Andersons??)

Can I be really annoying and ask what the sources are for some of this ? particularly anything that might prove George and Mary Hill were cousins? And that John of Hillmount was the son of the Rev John Hill?

What's your opinion on the lifespan of John Hill of Hillmount? There's a burial of a John Hill in 1784 aged 64 at Portglenone Church of Ireland ? do you think that's him?

Sure, no problem. A lot of that information came from the following book: On the Shining Bann: records of an Ulster Manor by R. M. Sibbett. Like yourself, I have been looking at this family mostly from a particular angle. In my case, a lot of my time has been spent researching the Macaulay family of Cushendall. One of the weaknesses with my research has concerned the Martin family. Quite a few years back I approached the FitzGibbon family hoping that they could help. Unfortunately, most of the information they had concerend only their male line and paid little attention to the distaff side of their family. As such, I wish to thank you for refiring my interest in Maria Martin, wife of Alexander Macaulay.

We need confirmation that:

1) Margaret died early, probably following a childbirth.

2) She had a son William HILL b. ~ 1844 (in Whiteabbey?).

Such an individual is recorded in the 1851 census of St. Peter Port on Guernsey, aged 7, staying c/o his "aunt" Margaret DIGMAN (nee WILLIAMSON), along with his uncle William WHITTLEY.
[Assuming he is who we think he is, then she was actually his great aunt.]

Aged 7 seemed a tad young for such an adventure, but then if he had lost his mother ...
[Also, Margaret DIGMAN desperately needed help running her spirit-grocer's shop / boarding house.
She had lost all her family during the cholera outbreak in 1832.]


3) This WH was identical with the William John HILL who married Ellenor Jane Warden STEVENSON on 02-MAR-1864 at Newtownards.
[Fathers George HILL and Henry STEVENSON.]

Ensuing family was (at least):

William Digman HILL b. 23-DEC-1864 at Donaghadee
Mary Stevenson HILL b. 05-JUN-1866 at Donaghadee
Margaret HILL b. 18-FEB-1868 at Donaghadee.
Lizzie Beatrice HILL b. 30-APR-1871 at Antrim
George Frederick HILL b. 29-MAR-1873 at Belfast 3
Frederick HILL b. 18-MAR-1879 at Belfast

To date we only knew of the first one.
He had been named Henry Stevenson HILL at birth, but had his name changed when baptised.
Your post inspired me to return to FamilySearch.org tonight, finding the others. Thanks!

William WHITTLEY had brought what remained of his family (after further sad losses) back to Belfast in 1862.
Presumably, his nephew William HILL (aged 17/18) returned with him.

Going by the information you've provided Pablo, I'm guessing you already know this, but I noticed that the Hill/Macauley and McNeill family can also be found on the 1851 census in Larne:

I've also now got my hands on a copy of The Shining Bann by R. M. Sibbett (1928). Here's the extract about the Hill family:

The Rev. John Hill, Presbyterian minister, was the first of his name to reside in the manor of Cashel. His son, John Hill, linen merchant, founded the Hillmount Bleachworks at Cullybackey, now among the largest and best-equipped of their kind in the world.
Elizabeth, eldest daughter of John Hill, of Hillmount, married William Adams, of Portglenone, in 1789. The two youngest members of the large family by this union ? a son and a daughter ? went to Australia. There the former, Robert, became a successful sheep farmer, and the latter wed another colonist following the same occupation. Harry Adams the last-born son of Robert Adams, acquired considerable fame as a skilful surgeon. He died later near Wellington, New Zealand. Captain Adams, the only son of Harry Adams, was killed in the Great War. His sister, Lady Glenny Wilson, well known in the literary worlds, resides in New Zealand.
George Hill Adams, M.D., Edinburgh, was another son of William Adams. Practising for some years in Australia, he returned to London, and died at Notting Hill, unmarried. Elizabeth, the eldest daughter of the worthy couple indicated, married the Rev. W. C. Wray, of Buckna, County Antrim. One of the sons born of this union, Dr. Charles Wray, was appointed health officer of Brisbane. He died there in 1902, of Bubonic plague, caught in the discharge of his duty.
Ann Adams, the second daughter of William Adams, wed the Rev. Clarke Huston, D.D., Macosquin. William, his fourth son, espoused Sarah Adair, daughter of Henry Newton Raphael of Galgorm. Their son, George Hill Adams, was identified for some time with the York Street Flax Spinning Company, Ltd., Belfast. Eventually he went to Australia, and still resides there, at Melbourne.
Three of his sons served in the Great War - Captain George Hill Adams, M.C., Australian Artillery; Commander Bryan Fullerton Adams, R.N., D.S.O ; and Wm, Ronald Adams, Australian Field Ambulance.
The last named is now a barrister in Melboune, holding a Government appointment. His brother Bryan, by heroism, covered himself with glory. The Naval Gazette, published some time after the Zeebrudde raid stated: "Lieut.-Commander Bryan F Adams led the naval storming party in the most gallant manner. He was the first to land on the Mole. Followed by his men, he bombed the German lookout, making it useless to them, etc., etc."
Specially promoted Commander for his services, and given charge of his own ship, Bryan had conferred upon him the D.S.O. as an additional honour. He was lately appointed to the Queen Elizabeth, stationed at Malta, where Sir George Keyes, K.C.B., flies his flag.
The eldest sister of George Hill Adams wed the Rev. S. Thomson, B.A. Another became the wife of James Gardiner, a Belfast merchant. Of this marriage there were two sons, James, who succeeded his father in business, and Campbell, a successful medical practitioner. A third sister was united in matrimony to the Rev. Clarke Huston Irwin, M.A., D.D., secretary of the Religious Tract Society. A fourth sister, E. R. Adams, resides in Belfast.
William Adams, son of Thomas Adams, and grandson of William Adams and Elizabeth Hill, resided in Portglenone, and was an elder in Third Portglenone Presbyterian Church. His daughter, Annie Adams, who occupies the old mansion, maintains the high traditions of her family in the educational and musical spheres.
The Rev. Dr. Park, one-time Moderator of the General Assembly, and many others, including solicitors, barristers, doctors, and men of business, could also claim descend from the Rev. John Hill.
Other family associations may be traces through the Hills mentioned. John Hill, of Hillmount, married Anne Barry, of Carrickfergus. Anne Barry's mother was Anne Coleman, a daughter of Dr. John Coleman, of Carrickfergus. Elizabeth Coleman, sister of Mrs. Barry, wed first Dr. Dobbin, of Belfast, and secondly Henry Ellis, barrister-at-law, Innisrush. Mrs. Ellis was a grand-aunt to Elizabeth Hill, who married William Adams, Portglenone. After the death of Henry Ellis, Mrs. Ellis resided for a time in WIlliam Adams's house, where she died. Her letters, which are still preserved, show that she was quite a personality.
The youngest child of John Hill married her cousin, George Hill, of Larne. One of her daughters became the wife of a member of the McNeill family in Larne, related to the Portglenone McNeills. A son and daughter born of this union wed a Portglenone sister and brother respectively. The Larne McNeills, connected with the Hills of Hillmount, followed the legal profession. A solicitor of their name consulted by the Grand Jurors of Cashel resided in a beautiful cottage at Glenone, the side of which is now occupied by James Heenan's residence. He was half-brother to Dr. McNeill, Portglenone.

Gilby, I am glad that were able to get your hands on a copy of The Shining Bann. I hope that at least a few pages of it will prove useful.

Yes, I was already aware of George Macaulay's daughters, Mary Hill, and the McNeill family being documented in the 1851 census. But still, many thanks for going to the trouble of making a post for me. With best wishes, Paul.

James Moore of Ballydivity was married to Margaret Gilliland, my gggggggg aunt. I've just found an extract of his will on Ancestry dated 1778-1783. It mentions his sister Ann, widow of the Rev John Hill of Drumna, and her three sons John, Charles and James, also her daughters Mary Given wife of Wm. Givern, and Ann Edmiston wife of Hugh Edmiston.

Nephews Charles and James Hill were of Drumna (Drumra/Drumraw) while nephew John Hill was of Hillmount. (This fits with the Deputy Court Cheque Book of 1776.)

Ah well here is what is on the "Registry of Deeds, Dublin : Abstracts of wills" available on Ancestry. This is a copy of a copy of the will/codicils. As I mentioned I hope to be able to see the original at PRONI someday. The square brackets are not mine - they're on the abstract on Ancestry.

Do we know if Edward Hill was a nephew on George Hill's side, or a nephew on his wife Mary Hill's side?

There are trees online which have Edward Hill of Bessbank being the son of Trevor Hill. Is this then the Trevor Hill of Larne who married Theodora Brice?

I see the obituary of Theodora Hill (n?e Brice) refers to her "the late Trevor Hill, Esq., of Bess Brook". I wonder if Bess Brook is the same as Bessbank.

Ah thanks for the Clifton Street link Aghadowey ? I'd forgotten about it. Were you able to find a headstone to go along with the register? I'm not sure I completely understand the grave number reference.

I shall look into this Trevor Hill who married Sarah Anne Penny. Quite likely connected, but I haven't found proof just yet.

This Trevor was also a son of a Trevor Hill:

Belfast Morning News, 25th Aug 1869
August 19, in the Presbyterian Meeting-house, Raloo, by the Rev. W. J. Smyth, Trevor Hill, of Eden, Carrickfergus, to Anne Jane Hogset, of Kilroot.

Church record says he was a bachelor, so probably not the same Trevor that married Sarah Anne Penny.


Bessbank aka Bessbrook aka Whiteabbey House??

Belfast Newsletter, 4th Jan 1842
On the 27th ult., at Albert-place, in the 28th year of her age, Theodora, eldest daughter of Trevor Hill, Esq. late of Whiteabbey-house, deeply regretted by all who knew her.

The Will of Trevor Hill late of the North-east Division Carrickfergus Farmer deceased who died 22 December 1872 at same place was proved at Belfast by the oaths of William Hogset of Kilroot (Carrickfergus) County Antrim Farmer and Robert Hill of Eden (Carrickfergus) Ship Carpenter the Executors. Wiil mentions wife Ann Jeane Hill, 'Robert Hills son Trevor' so perhaps this Trevor and Anne Jane didn't have any family?

Well assuming the grave reference is Platform 15, Graves 36-37, then the headstone appears to be for a Britten family which is a bit confusing.

Died:
The son of William (c1776-?) and Henrietta (1777-1820) Adams he was born at Newry, Green Co., New York and baptized at Coxsackie, Greene Co., Neew York. He married first Lillias "Lillie Ferguson (c1802-1868) May 20th, 1825 at First Presbyterian Church at Perth by the Rev. William Bell. He next married Helen Gregory Davidson (c1819-1882) January 12th , 1870 at the residence of J. F. Kennedy, Perth, by the Rev. Thomas Henderson and lastly he married Susan (Morris) McEwen (c1821-?) April 3rd, 1884 at Brockville.

Though his Death Notice in the Perth Courier February 5th, 1892 records his birth at Co. Tyrone, Northern Ireland all other sources record the United States with his last marriage recording New York State.

Death of Mr. John W. Adams. On Friday morning last, our venerable townsman, Mr. John W. Adams, on getting up in the morning to kindle the fire was seized with a paralytic stroke, and died shortly after. He had been in his usual good health, apparently, but something like shortness of breath had troubled him for some time, though he could still walk long distances, and was considered even at his age an active man. He had just finished his 89th year on the Saturday before his death.

The late Mr. Adams was one of our oldest inhabitants. He was born in county Tyrone, Ireland, in the year 1803, and when a few years old went with his father to New Jersey, U.S., where the latter became interested in a cotton factory. The venture being disastrous, the father removed to Perth, in the year 1816 - the date of its settlement - and drew land on the Scotch Line, where he farmed till his death. His son John worked on the farm also, but was a good mechanic as well as a farmer, being handy in making anything out of wood or iron. When sickles began to give way for cradles for cutting grain, fifty years ago, Mr. Adams turned his hand to making cradles, and supplied many a local farmer with these new implements. The strides from the reaping hooks of Biblical days to the self-binding harvester of 1892 tells of the time spanned by Mr. Adams' years, and the wonderful improvements in mechanical contrivances in his lifetime.

Mr. Adams was a noted teacher of vocal music, and most of the classes in old times were instructed by he and his brother William now dead many years. Mr. Adams was a member of Knox (Presbyterian) church and a faithful attendant at its ministrations.

He was married three times but was without children. His last wife survives her aged partner, and has the sympathy of all friends.

The funeral took place on Monday last to the old burying ground, and was attended largely both from town and country. Rev. James Ross, B.D., of Knox church, preached a funeral sermon last Sabbath morning in memory of the deceased from the words: Well done thou good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things; I will make thee ruler over many things." The few things over which he was faithful were brought out and recommended as examples to all Christians.

The Perth Courier;
Friday, 5 Feb 1892;
Vol. LVIII, No. 22, Col. 4, Pg. 5;

John married Lilias "Lily" Ferguson on 20 May 1825 in Knox Presbyterian Church, Perth, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada. Lilias (daughter of John Ferguson, * and Catherine McIntyre) was born on 24 May 1802 in Callander Parish, Perthshire, Scotland; died on 11 Dec 1868 in Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Old Burying Ground / Pioneer Cemetery, Craig Street, Perth, Ontario, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

John married Helen Gregory Davidson in 1870. Helen (daughter of Andrew Davidson and Sarah Gregory) was born on 14 Jul 1818 in Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland; was christened on 12 Jan 1819; died on 31 Jan 1882 in Portsmouth, Frontenac County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Old Burying Ground / Pioneer Cemetery, Craig Street, Perth, Ontario, Canada.

Louisa's birth place is reported as the USA (1861, 1871, 1891), Canada (1851), and Scotland (1901) in various census returns. It appears that her father was a military settler so any are possible but it was most likely Canada or the USA.

?i?Bill McCullough notes
?/i?William Cowie on the Scotch Line was her great grandfather.
Janet and Robert Cowie came to Perth in the 1830's via the USA.
Robert Cowie was married to Henrietta Adams. Henrietta's brother John Adams farmed and taught music. John Adams and his wife (?) adopted his wife's niece, Louise McKay who later married Ralph Dodds. Their granddaughter, a Mrs. Ferrier lives across the road from the John Adams farm.

Dodds - In the sudden death of Mrs. Ralph Dodds, of Glen Tay, on Thursday morning last that community and township is bereft of a whole hearted woman. Mrs. Dodds was in her usual health and on Thursday morning was going about as usual until about 10 o'clock when she fell in a faint. Members of the family went to her aid immediately but could do nothing and she passed away a few moments later. Heart trouble won the cause.

Deceased was born in Rochester 72 years ago, daughter of James McKay. When three years of age she came to live with her uncle the late John W. Adams, on the Scotch Line, and his home was her home until her marriage with Mr. Ralph Dodds in 1851. Their marriage was a long and happy one and the bereaved and aged husband is tendered the sympathy of the community in the sudden loss he has been called upon to bear in the death of his sharer of joyts and sorrows for more than 55 years.

Eight children were born to the union: Alex., Davidson Man.; Mrs. Robert Miller, 3rd line of Bathurst; Mrs. Robert Miller, Rideau Ferry; John A., on the homestead; James (deceased), Mrs. R.M. Rudsdale, 3rd line Bathurst; Mrs. Lorenzo Miller, Crookston Minn.; Matthew, Smiths Falls.

The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon to Elmwood cemetery; service was conducted at the house and grave by Revs. D Currie and J.G. Greig. The pallbearers were relatives of the deceased. The funeral cortege was a long one and evidenced not only respect and esteem but sympathy for the family in their sudden loss.

THE MIRROR
The Westport Mirror was established by Mr. H. E. Bywater in 1893, and has been edited and published by its present proprietor, Mr. W. B. Adams for 13 years. During its career it has steadily and consistently advocated an independent policy in political affairs and has never swerved from these principles. The Mirror is a six column, eight page weekly paper. A specialty is made of job printing and catalogue work of every description. The loyalty of The Mirror to its native town and county ? and the advocacy to legislation by the municipal councils, or by the Federal or Ontario Parliaments ? have always been measured by a faithful desire to promote what was believed to be in the best interests of the people, and although nearly two generations have passed away since it became a factor in the discussions of the live questions of the day, its age has lost little if any of its force, and it still continues to enjoy a large share of patronage, as well as the confidence of the people of this section of the county.
[From the book "A review of the business carried on in a number of flourishing towns and villages of the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville" published in 1909]
