Kalbfleisch, as­ sociate professor of German at the University of Western On tario, described the life an: activities of early German set­ tlers in Hay and Stephen town­ ships, Huron county, jn a talk to the London-Middlesex Histor ical Society in London. After a brief topographical description of the townships Professor Kalbfleisch told th< society that the German settlers who went to the townships were either an overflow from Water­ loo County or direct immigrants from , I.....,. \ .came to Huron County after brief others Fork and Buffalo to the Huron tract. The census of 1851, the Pro­ fessor settlers in Huron County mainly in Hay and Stephen townships To this number must be added some German-Americaus includ­ ing Mennonites, After 1851 this number increased rapidly, sc that in the census of 1871 there were 2,737 Germans in Hay and Stephen townships, he went on Many Go West The speaker told how the German population in the town­ ships .steadily dwindled from 1881 to 1921 due, he said, tc the steady emigration of many­ settlers to the Canadian and American West, which began in the 1870’s and lasted until the end of the first decade of the 20th century. A further decline in the num­ bers of settlers of German ex­ traction between 1911 and 1918 he continued, was due partially .to World War I. During that period many people of German extraction suddenly decided thai they were not of German extrac­ tion at all and, .consequently appeared under some othei racial group when the census taker came to the door, Profes­ sor Kalbfleisch said. , Turning to surnames, he said that they differed considerably in the two townships. The popu­ lation of Crediton, for example he continued is largely made up of people coming from the same hamlet in the old country. The Village of Baiersbronn, a house­ hold word in Crediton home, place and former ly every German phen Township, ship, the speaker there is a much greater variety Germany. Many, he said stay in Waterloo, while came directly via New continued, phows thai were 203 German-borr ness. It was in 1855 Evangelical church was at Crediton, although had been held in family homes from 1850 on. In 1866, lie con­ tinued, a new church was buil whieh, in turn, was replaced in 1897 by a larger building seat­ ing 750 people. Politically the German set­ tlers have always been active in purely local politics as well ai in the larger political arena the speaker said. In conclusion Professor Kal­ bfleisch said that his researci had led him to believe tha many of the German settlers came to Hay' and Stephen town­ ships foy economic and political reasons; that they came usually without large material resource! that there was ■ a nice balance between artisans and necessary for a pioneer com munity; that the farmers sough* out good land and soon estab­ lished themselves on it; tha1 they quickly assimilated or fus­ ed with their English speaking neighbors; that they understood democratic processes and were ready and willing to assume and discharge political duties, if called upon to do so; that they became staunch Canadians; tha! highly developed traditional traits have helped to keep their communities stable; “that they are not much worse and not much better, than the rest of the population of our fair coun­ try”. farmer Dashwood Wins They are read by more than 8,900 Times-Advocate readers every week ■ Wit............ ...NJ................
