Notes:

Tye, Robert Clayton. - Was born in Mitchem, Surrey, England. May 27th, 1829, the son of the Daniel Tye mentioned elsewhere. He came to New York at the age of eight and in 1840 came to Haysville. On May 17th, 1853, he was married to Miss Emma Marlton, of Goderich, and rented the farm now owned by Hy. Einwaechter in South Wilmot, where he remained for a year and then purchased Clayton Farm, now owned by Simon Baer, and where the active period of his life was spent and where the children were all born and raised. Mr. Tye and family have been identified with the work of the Church at Haysville and St. James' ever since its inception. He was warden of Christ Church, Haysville, for 21 years and was always a liberal subscriber to its funds. Mr. Tye has been singularly unfortunate in the matter of family bereavements, as of his fifteen children only six now survive. His second wife, Emily Warner, long and favorably known in the Parish, died on March 30th, 1900. The children are: Annie, deceased, Fanny, deceased, Lucy, deceased, Emily, deceased, Clayton, deceased, Frederick, deceased, Emma Minnie, Mrs. P. A. Ballingal, of Galt, Frederick, V, S., deceased, Kate Helen, Mrs. Cyrus Witmer, deceased, Agnes Bertrude, deceased, Edith, Mrs. G. Osborne, of New Brunswick, N. J., Clarence, of Alberta, Frank, of Alberta, Alice, of Balcarres, Sask., Ralph, deceased, Howard, C. E., of Alberta. Clayton Farm was long noted for its open handed hospitality and an invitation to spend a day there was always the precursor of an enjoyable time. Mr. Tye has now retired from business and is living in Stratford.

Notes:

Tye, Daniel. - Was born at Suffolk, England, on January 26th, 1793. He was one of a family of five, two sons and three daughters, viz: William, Daniel and Mrs. Dove, Mrs. Cavell and Lucy, unmarried. His wife, Anna Belle, was a daughter of Colonel Marlton, of the 60th Rifles. In 1837, he with a daughter, Mary, and Miss Rumball, an old friend of the family and sister of Mrs. Fenner, whose son, Henry, afterwards married a daughter of our subject, sailed for America, leaving the rest of the family in London, and who followed him in about a year, stopping at Newtown, Long Island. Daniel Tye had in the meantime gone on to Canada and taken up the farm now owned by Charles D. Brown, Nith Grove, and cleared five acres before returning to Long Island, where he worked the Fenner farm for a year and where they all had their share of fever and ague. In 1839 all started for Canada, father, mother and children. Robert C, Henry D., Frank and the four daughters, afterwards Mrs. [Mary] Fenner, Mrs. [Annie] John Sydney Smith, Mrs. [Minnie] (Dr.) O'Connor and Mrs. [Lucy] Harrison. A span of horses and a covered wagon were the means of transport, (the heavier goods going by canal boat up the Hudson to Troy.) The party then journeyed to Oswego, and went by boat to Queenston, driving to Hamilton, where part of the winter was spent. In February, 1840, they set out for Haysville with a load of goods, Henry driving with Annie, Lucy and Robert as passengers, arriving at their destination and putting up at Everatt's hotel, where they remained for a few days while the log house on Nith Grove was being got ready and into which they immediately moved. Henry D. Tye returned to Hamilton in the sleighs for another load of household goods and the rest of the family, but the snow all disappearing in February, they had to return in the covered wagon and a little way the other side of Ford's Tavern on their return the wagon slipped over the hill and upset. The family escaped injury, but the wagon was damaged beyond recovery. As Henry was the oldest the hardest work fell to him and he helped to chop and log a good part of the land. He was only 16 years old when he came, but looked 21. After he became of age he was clerking for John Sydney Smith for a few years. He wanted to start a nursery and bought five acres from his father (Daniel) on the Skelly farm where the orchard is now, but the land was too heavy, so he sold it back to his father and bought five acres back of Thomas Somerville's store and then he bought the Clayton farm and moved the nursery to it and sold 80 acres to R. C. Tye. Henry D. Tye and Mary both received good boarding school education, but the rest of us had to pick up the little education we got as best we could. There were not any schools when we came to the country and we had too much work to do at home if there had been. I have copied the foregoing almost word for word from an old memorandum prepared by Mr. R. C. Tye, of Stratford and kindly loaned by Mrs. Henry Tye Walker, as it gives the best account of the life of a pioneer that I have yet seen, as it was not written for publication. To return to our subject, Mr. Daniel Tye continued his farming operations, taking up 300 acres of land. He took an interest in public matters, being a strong Conservative. He was an enterprising man and was one of the first importers of Devon cattle, Southdown sheep and Essex hogs and won many prizes at the Provincial Shows of those days. He was a steady and consistent supporter of St. James Church. He died on October 23rd, 1874 in his 82nd year. Mr. R. C. Tye, of Stratford, is the only surviving member of the family. Mr. Wm. F. Tye, the eminent Civil Engineer, is a grandson.
