• Notes

  I now go a little farther south to the next farm now owned and occupied by John Scott. This lot was taken up and settled about the same time as Adam Main s by George Weaver, brother of the late Peter Weaver, whom I mentioned in a former letter. Weaver sold to the late Samuel Congo, and he in turn sold to Archibald Scott, father of the present owner. The farm now owned and occupied by Nelson Culham was taken up in 1824 by the late Samuel Markle, who lived for the first year in the house along with David Mulholland, son of Hugh, of Troy, whom I also mentioned in some former letters, until Markle could get a place cleared for a house. And here we can see the acts of kindness which those early settlers showed to each other, without which it would have been almost impossible for then, to have got along. The farm afterwards fell into the hands of Alexander Markle, son of Samuel Markle, from whom Nelson Culham purchased. There was another son and a daughter the late Adam Markle, of the Township of Waterloo, and Mrs. Henry Sipes of Beverly. The pioneers of Beverly: a series of sketches" by John A.
