Tuckersmith Named After
Martin Tucker Smith,
- Canada Company Direc-
tor.
McKILLOP AFTER
JAMES McKILLOP, M.P.
A ' number of townships in Huron,
says T. J. Dolan, writing in the Strat-
ford Beacon -Herald, were named af-
ter early directors. of the Canada, Com-
pany, which organization owned the
Huron Tract. • Other tovrnships, de-
rived their names from titled per-
stMs 'in England, among them former
premiers od the country.. At.least one
Hiron Township, drew its name from
a 'castle In Scotland, others from
communities in the Old Country and
one from a good old Indian name.
The Township of Usborne took its
name from Henry I.Tsborne, one of
the first directors of the Canada Com-
pany. In the Canadian Archives there
is mention of a letter dated Novem-
ber 16, 1802, from Governor. Sir Rob-
ert Shore Mines to. John Sullivan,
under secretary of state, introducing
Mr. Ueborne, connected' with the' tim-
ber trade of Lower Canacla. On May
31, 1803, Milnes, writing'. again to
Sullivan. regrets. that the, Canadian
oak has net been found suitable for
s.hipbutilding and hopes that Tieborne's
efforts to establish commerce se Can-
adian timber may lead to the increase
of the trade of the provinee. In 1813
Henry Usborne, Benson & Co., made
a .contract with the Navy Board far
the supply of timber from 'Canada
and asked folea permit to cut timber
ine -various ,localities.
Stephen Township derived its name
from James Stephen, junior, the un-
der secretary /Of state for the colon-
ies inthe time of Lord Goderich end
Lora Glenelg. • Apparently- iStePtieh,
was not popular in bis time for it is
of him that Sir Francis Bond Head
wrote to Lord Glenelg in 1837: "It
has long been notorious to every Bri-
tish subject in the Canadas that your
Lordship's under secretary, the author
of our .colonial despatches., is a rank.
republidan: allia sentiment, his con-
duct and his political character are
here alike detested." The evidence
•giveti by Mr. „Stephen before a House
of Commons committee on the gov-
ernment of. Canada in 1828 was, in
the opinion of Sir Francis "totally it -
compatible with the station of an
Under Secretary of State for the'
Colonies." Tine Montreal Gazette in
1838 criticizd Mr. Stephen, saying:
"It is well known that Mr. Stephen
has for wary Years past been the
confidential adviser and 'director- of
the colonial department; nor can it
be doubted that to his evil influence
must be ascribed all the misgovern-
ment which these provinces suffered
for se long a period. , It is time that
the baneful domination of Mr. Under
Secretary Stephen should be get rid
of, and that an entirely new system
of things should be adopted.",
Though.Tuckersmith is now spelled
as one word, the person for whom
•the township was named, was Mr.
Smith, the Christian names being
Martin Tucker. Martin Tucker Sanith
was a banker in London, England.
and one of the original directors of
the Canada Company. .He was. the
second sea' of John Smith, M.P., of
Dale Park, 'Sussex, by his second
wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Lieut. -
Col., Tucker. Martin Tucker Smith
was born in 1803 anddied in 1880.
Pre was M.P. for Midhurst and fqr
Wycombe and he was • married in
1831 to Louisa, daughter of Sir
M hew White Ridley, M.P.
Stanley Township is named after
Edward Geoffrey Smith Stanley, 14th
Earl; of Derby, who was born in 1799
and died in 1869. He entered parlia-
ment in 1821 as a member for Steck-
bridge and soon took rank as an able
debater. In 1827 he took office under
Canning as secretary for the colonies
and continued in the same position
under Lord Goderich. In Lord Grey's
government, Mr. Stanley was • chief
Secretary' forlreland. He helped car-
ry the Reform Bill in .1832 and in 1833
wasagain secretary for the colonies,
being nominated ,to that post with
the special object of carrying the
abolition of slavery in the West In-
dies. In 1841 be was colonial secre-
tary under Peel and in 1844 he was
summoned to the House of Lords as
Harron Stanley of Bickerstaffe. In
1851 he succeeded to his father's
earldom and estates and in 1852 he
Permed a government which lasted
only 10 months. In 1858 he •.became
premier a second time.
The name Stanley dates back from
the time of King Saba when William
•de Audleigh acquired the manor of
Stanleigh and took that surname
from the seat, so called from its
rough and stony 'soil. .Stanley ir

ballad, was the scene of the battle be -
