Notes:
The Hawke family were amongst the earliest settlers in this southeast corner of the township. Benjamin Hawke, the head of the family, came to Yonge Street from Pennsylvania about the year 1811, his wife being a sister of Samuel Lount, who was executed after the Rebellion. During the war of 1812-15, Mr. Hawke was the contractor for hauling the cannons and supplies passing through Holland Landing, and across the portage from the Head of Kempenfeldt Bay to the Nottawasaga River. His sons, along with himself, settled in King and Tecumseth townships in the twenties, when the parts around Lloydtown and Schomberg were opening for settlement. He was one of the canidates to represent the County of Simcoe at the election for the Assembly in 1834, but was not successful. He was appointed a justice of the peace in 1843. He was lame, and in his day had a full share of the rugged experiences of frontier and pioneer life. Periphen Hawke, was taken prisoner during the Rebellion disturbances of 1837, and, after five months' imprisonment, was pardoned, according to the list of persons arrested appearing in Lindsay's Life of W.L. Mackenzie. And it is said that Gabriel Hawke, of Tecumseth, was also taken prisoner during the Rebellion, although his name does not appear in that list. Gabriel was a large, powerful man, and well-known in the early days of the Township of Tecumseth. Some part of the Hawke family moved to the Township of Wellesley, County of Waterloo, where the village of Hawkesville is named after them.
In about 1846 Benjamin Hawk Sr., his wife Mary (Lount) Hawk, and the families of their five sons and four daughters moved from Simcoe County to unsettled land in Wellesley Township, Waterloo County. The area was known as the "Queen's Bush." The community where they settled became Hawkesville. These Hawk families included Benjamin Jr. and Mary (Dean) Hawk and John and Martha (Dean) Hawk. John Hawk built the first gristmill in the vicinity of Hawkesville, and his brother Percifer Hawk built the first sawmill. There are numerous instances where verifiable members of this family, in some cases even the same person, spelled their name Hawk or Hawke. On at least one early map the town was named Hawksville
________________
Hawksville Woollen Mills.
The good reputation of these mills is so well and widely known that words. of praise from the CHRONICLE would seem superfluous to many of those who have patronized them for so many years. But a description of the industries of Hawksville would be decidedly incomplete without some reference to so important an industry. The mills were established by the late John Hawke about forty years ago. Some thirty years ago the establishment was purchased by the late Robert McCulloch, who operated it until near the time of his death in 1896. A year or so afterwards it became the property of his son, Hugh, who now operates it.. These mills have always had an excellent reputation in the way of doing honest work, and have for their patrons many of the leading farmers of Woolwich and Wellesley townships While they manufacture all kinds of blankets and yarns, they make tweeds, etc., for which none but the very best material is used. The line of fine tweeds on the shelves of the salesroom, for superior quality of texture and late style, are not inferior to the best in some of our leading wholesale establishments. The prices are also not by any means excessive. The stock of yarns, hosory and gentlemen's underwear is also large and complete as to size and style. A specialty is made in custom work, such as carding, spinning, weaving, etc. One of the admirable features of this establishment is that nothing in the line of shoddy work is kept on the shelves to palm off on unsuspecting customers. Hands of practical experience are always employed and patrons can count on getting the best value for their money. The highest price in cash or trade is paid for wool. In fact the proprietor is prepared to take all that comes in and pay a higher price in trade than is often obtained elsewhere.
Hugh McCulloch was born in Galt, in 1861. He worked under the instructions of his father for about twenty-two years, but mostly in the flour milling business. He was married in the forepart of 1898, to Miss Lovina, daughter of Mr. Lemuel Powell, a prominent farmer of Peel township, Wellington county. They live in an elegant home a short distance east of the village, in addition to which they own a farm of eighty acres. The father, the late Robert McCulloch, was a man widely known, and one of integrity and honest business principles. The son is evidently following in his footsteps by striving to keep up the enviable reputation of the establishment over which he now has control, a reputation so justly earned by the father. The latter died in 1896, aged fifty eight-years. Hugh is a quiet, unassuming young man and is averse to anything that savors of vain flattery, and what praise has been extended him through the course of this article has not been written through a desire on his part. But he is no doubt prepared to substantiate anything said in praise of his goods and work.

Notes:
It becomes our sad duty to record the death of Mr. H. C. Welliver, whose illness at Toronto we mentioned last week. He had been poorly for a week, when very early on the morning of the 10th inst., he suddenly became worse from an attack of inflammation of the lungs. For a time he failed fast, and it soon became apparent that his vitality was not sufficient to stand the ordeal. His friends were telegraphed for, and they hastened to his bedside. Then on Sunday morning he crossed the bourn whence no traveller returns. His remains were brought by train on Monday morning to Berlin. There a deputation from Elmira Lodge I.O.O.F. (of which deceased had been a member) was in waiting to take charge of them, and convey them to his father's residence. On Tuesday a very large concourse of friends and aquaintances met to pay their last tribute of respect to the deceased. The funeral cortege was also a very large one, and as it slowly moved off towards Hawkesville, the place of the family burying ground, it consisted of the following, who travelled in the order named: Minister (Rev. Mr. Dean) Hearse, Bearers, Chief Mourners, Members of the Elmira Lodge I.O.O.F. Other members of that Order, Deputation from High School, Berlin, General Public making in all about 40 vehicles. On arriving at Hawkesville, Rev. Mr. Dean preached an impressive discourse from 1 Peter lc., 24v.; after which they committed all that was mortal of Harvey C. Welliver to the earth, according to the rites of the order to which he belonged. Deceased at the time of his death lacked only a few days of being 20 years old. He was thoughtful, modest, and rather retiring; was of good moral character, and highly esteemed by those who knew him best. In his death we lose one who promised fair to become a useful member of society. During his sickness in Toronto his fellow students waited on him constantly; the teachers of the Normal School were also very attentive, and on Monday morning the whole school marched in a procession with his remains to the railway station. The ladies attending that school sent a handsome wreath of flowers to lay upon his coffin. Requiescat in pace.

Melvin Winger Killed When the news of the train wreck at Islington, which took place last Tuesday, first reached here, it was not suspected that the fatalities would be of more than ordinary interest to our citizens. It transpired however, that the fireman who was killed in the wreck and whose name was given as Charles Winger, was Melvin Charles Winger, a native of Elmira. He was the only son of Mr. Reuben Winger who formerly lived here. He went by the name of Melvin here, hence the failure of recognizing him by the newspaper reports. Toronto, March 17. - Brakeman David Taylor, of London and Fireman Charles Winger, of Windsor, are victims in the latest railway wreck... Mr Winger was married only last December and lived in Toronto. His parents are now living in Brantford... Mr. Hy. Winger of Elmira attended the funeral.
