      _______________

      PUDDICOMBE, Hy. - Came to Canada from Bedford, Devonshire, in 1837, and settled on the farm now occupied by Mrs. Hugh Collum and her son, William Graham Collum. He was married in 1838 to Mrs. Elizabeth Stockwell Walker, mother of Thos. Walker, 1st. The Collum residence was built by Mr. Puddicombe in 1838 and is probably the oldest in the Parish. Their were no direct heirs. The Church books shew Mr. Puddicombe to have been a liberal supporter of the Church, having for many years the honour of being the largest subscriber to its funds. He was Warden for twelve years and acted as Lay delegate to the Synod during many sessions of that body. He died on May 2nd, 1882, and his remains rest in St. James' Cemetery.
