Blyth will soon be re-named for another village founder. North Huron council at its Monday night meeting passed a motion to rename the street, as requested by 911 to eliminate overlap within the township, to Kelly Street. Input was received from several residents for the renaming, one from a local historian Janis Vodden. She explained that Patrick Kelly was a key figure in Blylh's early development and the first reeve of Blyth. Along with William Drummond. Kelly worked to make the village prosper and it was through their joint leadership that the LH&B railway came to Blyth. Kelly, who defeated Drummond tor reeve, had previously been the first reeve of Morris Twp. Like Drummond he started several businesses. Other suggestions included (ireenway Street. Brechen Street, in recognition ol the birthplace of the Drummond family in Scotland. Kcely Street, Placid Street and Sunrise Drive. Both Blyth ward councillors, Edgar Daer and Murray Nesbitt stated a preference for Kelly Street. The name change will be advertised for four weeks, after which a public meeting will be held, ihen a bylaw will be passed. Three million Canadians have I’m one of them.
