      ________________

      EVERATT, Edward. - Was born in Wildworth, Lincolnshire, England, on August 12th, 1804, and died in Wilmot on December 19th, 1884. He came to Canada in 1833 with his wife and two daughters, Rachel and Eliza, his other children, Charles, John, Henry and Sophia being born in Canada and are well known in this vicinity. The Bennetts, Cornelius, Richard, James and Ann came with them to Canada. Edward Everatt and Cornelius Bennett took up the 200 acre farm at Haysville and built an hotel in 1834. In the barn of this hotel the first English Church service in Wilmot was held and carried on at the Everatt 's for a number of years until Thos. Johnson gave the land for the Pine Hill cemetery and built a Methodist Church there and Henry Puddicombe built the English Church, now called St. James', Huron Road. Mr. Rally succeeded Mr. Hickey and after he left, the English Church in Haysville was a thing of the past until the coming of Rev. Mr. Mellish, who started services in the Haysville Schoolhouse and at St. James' and Shakespeare. The foregoing Church history was furnished by Mr. Charles Everatt, of Baden, and is inserted here to shew how good authorities on those old times disagree, as several discrepencies between this and the main text are noted. The first Division Court in the Township of Wilmot was held in the Edward Everatt Hotel, Mr. Everatt being the first Clerk. The Court was afterwards moved to Wilmot Centre and Mr. Everatt handed the Clerkship over to the late Mr. John Allchin. This Court now sits at Baden, Captain F. H. McCallum, of New Hamburg, being the clerk. Mr. Charles, of Baden, and Miss Sophia, an invalid, are the only representatives of the family now in this neighborhood, the former being among those present at the anniversary (1913) at St. George's.
