RECALLS AREA'S
EARLY HISTORY
(Continued from Page One)
nockburn, Stirlingahire, Scotland,
and took up Lot 7, South Bay-
field Concession Road, on July
10, 1837. He was married to Miss
Matgaret McNaughton, only dau-
ghter of Jean Kerrin and Donald
McNaughton, who emigrated to
Canada West in 1832. Donald Mc-
Naughton died at Dundas in 1832,
but his widow and Live sons and
daughters settled on the Bayfield
Concession Road, at the 4th Con-
cession of Stanley Township and
they named the hill there "Ban-
nockburn."
Mr. and Mrs. Ritchie lived in a
log house which he had erected
on his property and in true pion-
eer style the bed was made of
hemlock boughs.
During the winter 1837-38, D.
H. Ritchie was stationed at the
corners, now Clinton, having
joined the company of Capt.
Lizars, Goderich, to protect Hur-
on in the Rebellion of '37. He
kept an active interest in the
military life as it is noted that
as Lieut, Col. of the Regiment
Division of the South Huron Re-
serve Militia he appointed a cap-
tain in 1889.
He was a surveyor and had
charge of the first surveying
done in Stanley Township.
His influence in the District
was outstanding. In 1848 he
represented Stanley on the Huron
District Council which met at
Goderich until he was appointed
Clerk in 1851 of the united
counties of Huron, Bruce and
Perth. He continued this post in
Huron after the counties had
separated. While he was County
Clerk he drove to Goderich each
day in his phaeton, drawn by his
faithful sorrel horse, "Donald."
About 1856 Squire Ritchie built
the main part of his charming
home. Native brick was used in
the construction and the brick
layer was a Mr. Twentyman, Bay-
field. The first roof was of hand
hewn shingles but this was later
replaced with slate. The kitchen,
carriage house, etc.. were built
later.
In the South Huron election,
the first following Confederation,
D. H. Ritchie ran as Conservative
candidate for the Legislature and
was defeated by Malcolm C. Cam-
eron, Reformer, Goderich.
.ks well as being a leader in
civic affairs he also was active in
church affairs. He helped build
the first St, Andrew's Church,
familiarly known as "The Auld
Kirk." Following the union of
1875 he became an active mem-
ber of Trinity Church.
Mr. Ritchie died February 17,
1889,and in his will left $1,000.
to te poor of his native city,
Perth, Scotland.
Following his aunt's death in
1895, David Hood Ritchie Mc-
Naughton inherited the property.
He took charge March 20, 1895,
and has resided there contin-
uously ever since. He remodelled
the barns and kept the farm in
good order through the years.
This spring he sold this historic
and desirable property to Leslie
Armstrong, who with his wife,
are now in possession. Thus a
link with the social life of pion-
eer days has been severed,
