  • Notes 
    • King Street , North Side

      Willow Street.

      A frame building parallel with King Street occupied by Bosenberger, a shoemaker, who lived there probably from 1855-60.

      A building on the ground level with a veranda extending its length occupied by Dr. James Whiting, during 1855-60.

      A garden.

      A stretch of forest, hardwood and pine, from Louisa to Wellington Street, with some pine trees at the corner of Shanley Street, where is now Casper Braun's house. From Wellington Street crossing somewhat diagonally over vacant land, was the way from Waterloo to the Grand Trunk Ry. station in Berlin. At the northwest corner of King and Wellington Streets, there was a hotel with a large barn, used by teams from the country. A Mr. Proudlove built the hotel. It was later occupied by Levi Weber and after him by Henry Glebe.

      A one and one-half story frame building, facing King Street, with a brick building in the rear and a large barn along King Street, the location later occupied by H. L. Janzen. Open space somewhat wooded, to the Grand Trunk track. East of the Grand Trunk there was a swampy section which, in wet weather, became almost impassable. It was not unusual for farmers' wagons to be stuck in the mud of the road.
