  • Notes 
    • A. P. DAMMEIER was born in the year 1860 on Lot 6, Concession 14, eastern section of Wellesley Township, where he is still living. His father was one of the pioneers coming from the vicinity of Hespeler and located on the farm now occupied by his son in the early forties, hewing out a home for himself and family in what was then a vast wilderness. Mr. Dammeier was first elected to the Township Council in 1904, and has since discharged the duties appertaining thereto very satisfactorily.
