  • Notes 
    • ALLAN, MalcoIm. - Born in Paisley, Scotland, in 1804, died in Wilmot in 1900. He was married to Margaret Ferguson, also of Paisley, in 1828, and came to Canada with his wife in 1829 and lived near Bridgeport until 1837, when they came to Wilmot and settled on the farm now owned by Mr. Ephraim Cassel, where they resided until a few years prior to his death. There were nine children, of whom three only survive : Miss Margaret, of Stratford, (a most earnest churchwoman) , Mrs. Edward Johnston, Howick, and Mrs. R. N. Kerr, of Stratford. Mr. Allen was a great friend of education and gave his children very superior advantages in this respect.
