Do you remember?
BY JABEZ RANDS
•
(As part of Clinton's upcoming Centennial Celebrations
next year, lobes Rands of Clinton is writing a weekly
column on the history of the Town.)
Do you remember when Clinton was only a crossroads or
"The Corners?"
Do you remember when Clinton was only a crossroads or
"The Corners?"
When the Huron Road and the London Road were cut
through the wilderness in the early 1800's, the place where
they intersected became known as the Corners,
In 1831, two gentlemen by the name of Vanderburgh came
to live at the corners and bought land, one on the corner of
Tuckersmith Township and the other on the corner of
Goderich Township. The one in Tuckersmith built a log
house where the Bank of Montreal now stands. The log
house became a tavern where the weary traveller could get
food, drink, rest and warmth at the tavern. The main inter-
section was called Vanderhurgh's Corners at this time.
After a few years, one of the Vanderburghs died, and the
other moved to the United States. The tavern and property
was sold in 1837 to a man from the U.S, who was known as
"Yankee Reid." Apparently Mr. Reid ran the tavern in such
a manner that suited the people,,because the local citizen-
ship used to gather there for a night of fun and laughter.
In the winter, sleigh loads of good people were gathered
up from as far away as 12 miles and brought to "Yankee
Reid's Tavern" for a good time.
In 1835, William Rattenbury came to Huron. He settled
somewhere near Brucefield, not at the Corners. He then
moved to Goderich until 1844, but he thought the corners
had good possibilities, so he bought up three of the corners,
including "Yankee Reid's Tavern,
In 1855, Mr. Rattenbury started to lay out a village and-
from then on, he sold lots. This marked the real beginning of
Clinton, known then as Rattenbury's Corners.
Mr. Rattenbury decided to call his village Clinton in
honour of Lt. Col. Lord Clinton, on whose ,estate in Devon-
E'nklaiiK:Mil'Rittenbury's father was a large tenant
farmer.
Thus we can see how Clinton progressed from "the Cor-
ners" to its present name,
