Notes:

Musselman, "The two old pioneer settlers of this numerous family were David and Frederick who were no relatives to each other. They came to Canada in 1819 and settled in Waterloo County. The former, Mr. David Musselman settled in Woolwich Township, near Conestogo, on the farm now possessed by David Koch, while Frederick Musselman settled on the farm known as Rev. Elias Snider's place a little north of Waterloo. We shall first five the family of David and then of Frederick."

David Musselman, "was a native of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where he was born April 18th, 1799, and was married to Esther, daughter of Peter and Anna (Zimmerman) Martin. She was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, August 29th, 1803, and died July 31st, 1872. He died October 25th, 1870. To them was born a family of twelve children".

_______________________________

All lands in the early days was in the hands of large holders. Where the village now standing was part of a large holding belonging to David Musselman who himself lived on the western side of the village[Conestogo]. It was this man Musselman who started the wheels of Conestogo running by beginning the very important business of flour milling. This was urgent owing to the extreme distance that settlers had to hand for their supplies as all these were brought in on horseback from Dundas.

The Milling Industry

In 1845 the flour mill was built, also a saw mill, both run by waterpower, obtained from the waters of the Conestogo River diverted to these plants thru a raceway nearly a mile in length, the building of which was a colossal piece of work.

Mr. Musselman did not continue long as a miller, for in 1850 he sold the saw and grist mill with the property belonging to them to Henry Snider who conducted both for some years. The saw mill was finally abandoned and the mill taken away. More time was devoted to the flour mill which had attained wonderful proportions so much so that a new building on a far larger scale was put up equipped with more machinery.

About this time it was a common occurrence for farmers to come 40 and 45 miles with their wheat, so that very often from 20 to 30 teams stood waiting at this mill for their chance to unload. After a very successful term, Mr. Snider turned over his interests here to one of his sons Menno who remained at the head until about 1916. During this time he suffered reverses and a severe fire in 1904 wiped out the mill with its contents together with the storeroom for wheat all of which was lost.

CONESTOGA

A pioneer named David Musselman is credited with having founded Conestoga. He first purchased 700 acres of forest in the vicinity. In 1830 he bought a parcel of land where the village stands from Abram Martin. It was watered by the Conestoga River and Spring Creek, on which he built a sawmill. In 1844 he built a dam across the Conestoga River and erected another sawmill and a flourmill. A hamlet sprang up. Among the first buyers of lots in Musselman's survey were: John Miller, Adam Heller, Stephen Washburn, John B. Eby, Christian Stuernagel, James Merrilees, H. von Trilera, Theodore Spetz, Henry Snider, Jacob Grosz, Philip Oswald, Joseph S. Weaver, George Davidson, Peter Eby, S. B. Eby, Peter Buchanan, Michael Oswald, Jacob Kuntz, Charles Hendry, Solomon Kaufman, and Jacob Lippert.

After their advent a cooper shop, blacksmithshop, a store, an hotel, and a post office followed. In time a brickyard, a school, and a church were added, and the place was called Musselman's Mills. Later Perine Brothers built a flaxmill on Spring Creek, while on the same stream Goodworth & Sills constructed a paint mill.

The hamlet was known as Musselman's Mills until 1852, when it was renamed Conestoga, after the Conestoga River or the town of Conestoga in Lancaster County, Pa., from which county many of the pioneers had come. David Musselman operated his mills until 1856 and then sold them to Henry Snider, who carried on the milling till his death in 1885. His executors sold the mills to Menno Snider, who operated the flourmill until his own death in 1916. During his closing years he was assisted by his son Walter J. Snider, who succeeded to the property. Walter Snider afterward purchased the flour-mill at St. Jacobs from W. W. Snider and operated the two mills as the Snider Flour Milling Company, Limited. After his decease, his son Russell became head of the industries..

Mr. Peter Musselman, The former was one of the pioneers of this part of the county, and by industry and thrift he succeeded in hewing out of the wilds a good home for his old age. His death took place last Thursday and on Sunday his remains were laid to rest in Martin's cemetery, to which nearly 60 rigs followed, and where many more were waiting who could not cross the Grand river from the east. Needless to say he was a staunch Reformer and a true follower of that religious denomination the Old Mennonites. He leave an aged widow, 8 children and a number of brothers and sisters to mourn his departure. He reached the age of nearly fourscore years.

He had been at work on Wednesday morning, when he suffered a sun stroke, which rendered him unconscious, in which state he remained in spite of medical attendance which had been called in, until early Thursday morning, when he expired. He had reached the age of 67 years, 9 months and 16 days. Deceased was unmarried and is survived by several brothers and sisters who mourn his untimely death. He was a son of the late Peter Musselman, and resided on the old homestead, whence his remains were taken last Saturday afternoon, to Martin's Meeting House and Cemetery for service and burial.

During the last months of his life he suffered a great deal from gangrene on one of his feet, and although the pain was at times almost unbearable he was a patient sufferer and waited and longed for the hour that would relieve him from all pain and sorrow, and we have the hope that he is now safe with Jesus.

The funeral was held on Sunday to the Old Mennonite Church and burial ground at the East End of Berlin, and was one of the largest seen in Berlin for a long time. Revs E Bowman of Woolwich and J Woollner spoke impressively in English and German respectively from the text "Prepare to meet thy God".

In the fall of 1888, a team made up of players from the Western Football Association of Ontario toured the British Isles with notable success. Many of the players who made this trip became very distinguished persons in later life. The year 1888 marked the beginning of England's famous Football League, and the Canadian team played Notts County, Newton Heath (now Manchester United), Blackburn Rovers, Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion, who were members of that league. They also played such famous clubs as Glasgow Rangers, Queens Park, Ayr (not Ayr United in those days) and Hearts, plus a team made up of some of the best Scottish players, but not the actual Scottish national team. The Canadians made quite an impression on the British soccer scene at that time, and the English papers, in particular, are full of praise for the players. Seventeen of the 18 players who made the trip were born in Canada. The only one who was not was David Forsyth, who was brought to Canada from Scotland at the age of two.

Players who made the trip:

Harry Bewell, Harry P. Bingham, Walter W. Bowman, Solomon Brubacher, Dr. William Burnet, Alexander Noble Garrett, Alex Gibson, Tom Gibson, Dr. Edward Payson Gordon, Fred Killer, Charles (Carl) Kranz, Tom W. Murray, Dr Wilfred Pirt Mustard, Dr. Henry Hempton "Harry" Pirie, Dr. Walter Proudfoot Thomson, E.W. Webster, David Forsyth.

In 1889 he was married to Lucinda Snyder, with whom he lived in matrimony 26 years. The union was blessed with 4 children, 3 of whom survive. Owing to the death of his father, he was called upon to assume at the age of 15 years, the responsibilities of a man, by taking charge of his father's farm. At the age of 20 years he purchased the homestead on Brubacher Street, where he resided until 1893, when he moved to the farm on Edna Street, where he lived until his death. In addition to his occupation of farming, he carried on a lumber business for 20 years. Deceased was of a quiet and retiring disposition, a man who had many friends, and, so far as is known, not a single enemy. His integrity in all his dealings, his liberality in matters of charity, and his sympathetic nature, gained for him the respect of the entire community and of all with whom be came in contact. As a husband and father, he was kind and indulgent to his family, and while be will be greatly missed in the family circle, they have the assurance that he has gone to his heavenly home where he will be waiting to meet his loved ones and where there will be no more parting. Funeral services were held Feb. 5 from his late residence on Edna Street to the East End Mennonite Church and Cemetery, Berlin, Ont., for services and interment.. Bro. Jonas Snider officiated at the house and at the church impressive sermons were preached by Bro. Urias Weber from Jno. 6: 67,68, and Luke 12: 40; and by Bro. Fred Coffman from Jno. 14.

A Young Life Ended
Death of Mrs. Josiah Cressman on Monday

The intelligence of the death of Mrs. Josiah Cressman which occurred at her home, a short distance from the town, on Monday, will come as a severe shock to all who enjoyed her acquaintance. Although naturally of a frail constitution and in delicate health a great deal, she was active and energetic. The illness that resulted in her death, inflammation of the kidneys, was only of two weeks' duration, and up till a few days before the end came, her death was never anticipated.

Mrs. Cressman was a comparatively young woman, being only in her 30th year. She was a kind and conscientious woman and endeared herself into the affections of all who knew her. She was universally popular and profound sympathy is extended to the bereaved husband in his hour of affiction.

The funeral will take place from the family residence at 9 o'clock on Thursday morning to the Strasburg cemetery.

She also leaves her mother, three brothers and three sisters, and many other relatives and friends to mourn her early death. God comfort them in their sore affliction.

Not dead, but sleeping,
Then cease your weeping,
Dear Mary's with the blest;
She went before us
To join the chorus
Of those in endless rest.
