Wawanosh, in Original Form Took in Immense Acreage Indian Chief I€ -new It As `Plea sant Sailing" Wawanosh was so named by Dr. Dunlop in honor of his friend, Chief Wawanosh, of the Chippewas, who lived in Sarnia. The name means. "pleasant sailing" and .seems suitable to the township through which flows the Maitland in its twisty course be- tween hillybanks. • • • ' The first settler in the township was John Jackman who: carne to con- cession. one about 1840.. His sora was, the first boy born in the township and he was named f'John Wawanosh". A child of Robert :Shannon,• who also located on concession one, was the first girl' born, Another early settler was Charles Girvin who ca•ine to concession two. Settlers arrived rapidly and it was necessary to build a school house on concession two in 1$45. Jahn 'Me= Brine was the first teacher and Rev. Alexander McIcid a Presbyterian min- ister, conducted the first.religioas service in a public building, which was the school house. Near St. Helens, John and. William Gordon and Joseph Gaunt settled, Hugh Rutherford came to concession 10 in 1851, and shortly afterwards James Sommerville •built the pioneer mill on the same line. To• this local- ity also carne the Altons, John Sheriff, tine McPhersons and Donald Cameron, Hezekiah Helps who built his house near Auburn, in 1852, kept a yoke of oxen and carried supplies for incom- ing settlers. His home was always open to them. At the same time Frank Brandon, John Owens and Thomas Agnew took up land near Beigrave. The Currie Brothers, Rob - eat, John and David, came to the Turnberry town line, near Wingham, in 1854. Wawanosh was joined with ' Ash- field until 1852, when they' became separate municipalities and Wawan- osh sent its own representatives to the county council, the first two reeves being John Pentland .and Chas. Girvin. Wawanosh being of large area (85,640 acres),•and well populated by 1866, the Canadian Parliament in that year passed 'an act dividing the town- ship into east and west. Members of the first council for East Wawanosh elected in 1867 were: Robert Currie, reeve; Hezekiah Helps, David Scott, Lancelot Nethery and Thomas Taylor. Other officers Were: .Tames Tisdale, clerk; Donald McGib- bon, assessor; James Dunbar, collect- or; James McGowan, treasurer. The same year a eouncil for West Wawanosh had Charles Girvin for reeve and Edward Gaunt for deputy, and these two men retained their of-, fices for 12 years. For five of the years in which they served; from 1873 to 1878, Charles Durnin, William Kinahan and John Washington as- sisted them as councillors. In 1878 Robert Murray was clerk; William Mullin, treasurer; Hugh Me- Crostie, assessor; John Pentland, col- lacteal; John Taylor and Alexander Pentland, auditors. Since' those early days changes in the appearance of the land have been rapid and progressive. Could Chief Wawanosh now view the township to which his name was given, he would be •amazed to see the well kept farms of •Wawanosh, which he knew as cov- ered with unbroken forest threaded by the winding river which the Ind- ians called Menesetung By Alice Aitken in, the London Free Press.
