Death of Mr. James Crozier of Branchton

The severe illness which had afflicted this well-known resident of Branchton terminated in death on Sunday last. Mr. Crozier was a native of Traquair, Peeblesshire, Scotland, and came to Canada in 1831. He settled first near Glenmorris on a farm which he afterwards sold to Mr. McCrea, removing from there to Branchton in 1858. After being there for some time he removed to Berlin, where he carried on his business of butchering for about two years. At the end of that time he again moved back to Branchton, where he resided until his death. Mr. Crozier was married to a sister of Mr. Andrew Burnett's, of Blenheim. His family consisted of Mr. Adam Crozier, of Galt; Mrs. Wm. Pickering, of Galt; Mr. Andrew Crozier of Brussels; Mr. Arthur Crozier and a younger sister, living at Branchton. Of his brothers and sisters, there are yet living Mr. Wm. Crozier, of Downie; Mr. Thos. Crozier, of Muskoka; Mr. Adam, Crozier, of Ayr; and MR. John Crozier and Mrs. Waldie, of Plattsville.

How strangely old thoughts and scenes are conjured up by the death, one after another, of these old residents. On the same ship, in 1831, on which Mr. Crozier was a passenger, there were Mr. Thos. Ritchie, (dead); Mr. Arthur Burnett, (dead); Mr. Wm. Knox, long a resident of Branchton, lately of St. George, from which place, we believe, he has but lately removed; Mr. Heastie, of North Dumfries, (still living); and the Vasseys, who used to live on the West River road, above the foot bridge, but who are long since dead. On the voyage out, an elder brother of Mr. Ritchie's contracted a severe cold, which quickly terminated in death; and our informant, who was then a mere child, says he never will forget the sad scene on board that vessel when, supported by his friends, Mr. Thos. Ritchie, then a youth of 17, stood on the deck and saw committed to the deep the body of his most loving brother and almost protector.

Queen Street North, East Side.

Huber and Ahrens occupied the corner as a store and had a warehouse at the rear. The first section of the American Block was built in 1862. It contained a hotel with entrance on Queen Street and stores on the King Street front.

A meat shop occupied by one Schaefer and later by Crozier. This building was later occupied by Von Ebenau, a German toy dealer. He also built some sidewalks for the village in 1857.

A long two story frame building originally used by C. Ahrens as a barn and later by John Jacob Woelfle, a plough maker, who had a shop at one end and lived in the rest of the building. He had worked in the foundry on Foundry St. and after this shut down started his own shop. The building was later occupied by Rev. Jacob Wagner, who died there.

In 1858 a two story frame building was erected by Louis Breithaupt as his office and leather store. This was the first building on this site.

A 1 1/2 story dwelling with veranda lengthwise with Queen St. occupied by jailer Walden. Dr. Whiting later lived in this building for a time.

St. Peter's Church, formerly a vacant lot belonging to Mrs. Krug. The lot extended to Weber St. and to Mrs. Krug's house on Frederick St. This site was at one time favorably considered for the Central School, but it was decided that the ground would not be large enough. The present parsonage of St. Peter's Church was built by Dr. Eby, a native of Berlin, who had been living in Sebringville. He was the oldest son of John Eby spoken of as on Frederick Street. He married a daughter of Cyrus Bowers.
