The Goderich Signal-Star, 1981-10-14, Page 16PAGE 16 —GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1981 Lakefront cottagers forrn association in Ashfield Robert Kissack was elected president off the Ash- field Lakefront Association at a recent meeting. Secretary -treasurer and vice president is Geoff Walker. Several items were discussed which have been a problem to many cottagers over the years such as the responsibility for the maintenance of the roads leading from Highway 21 to the cottage area, and the removal of snow. The cottagers would like to see a one mile limit banning all commercial fishing from the Colborne and Ashfield Boundary on the south to the northerly boundary of Ash- field Township at Amberley. In the Ashfield Township it is estimated that there are 600 cottagers alone the Lakeshore. It is the desire of the members. of the Association to work closely with the Ashfield Township Council in regard to matters pertaining to the cottagers. Social News Many visitors were in attendance for the Thanksgiving service at Christ Anglican Church, Port Albert Sunday af- ternoon. The Rev. Robert Crocker conducted the Communion Service. In his message he 'spoke about Canada's Natural Resour- ces, and that each one is a trustee of this country. On many occasions people from other countries have more faith in this land than do Canadians, he said. Bright sunshine beckons many fishermen to Port Albert and the 'Nine Mile River. Several rainbow•were • caught, but in conversation with several fishermen, fishing was just poor to fair. Sam and Nancy. Gowan entertained their family to a Christmas party on Thanksgiving Day.. The Cowans in a few days will be heading south to Newport Richey, Florida, to their winter home. The Cowan home was all decorated for the festive occasion, the. children receiving their gifts 'from Santa Claus,- who was played by Sam Cowan. Attending. from London was Brent and Patti Cowan and children, Tracy and • Ben- jamin; from. Mississauga, Keith and Sandy Cowan, and children, Blair and Heather; and from Unionville, Clyde and Betty Cowan and children Kelly, Guy and Jason. Clare and Fred Faulhafer from Sebringville, and Violet Faulhafer from Stratford spent the Thanksgiving holiday at the home of Don and Darlene Bauer, Port Albert. Frank and Jennifer Gardiner and children Jane, David and Peter from Toronto spent the Thanksgiving holiday at the home of Mr. Gardiner's mother, Helen Gardiner, Port Albert. Bessie Bellinger from Port Port Albert news Tom Livingstone, correspondent 529-7645 Albert, and -her daughter Susan Worsell from Goderich spent Tuesday in the city of Toronto. The village's oldest resident Jean Lednor, 97, has vacated her summer home and has returned to Hamilton to spend several weeks with her daughter Agnes Brentwood. To assist her, was her daughter Agnes and her daughter Mary Dickson from Toronto,. Also visiting at the Lednor home for the Thanksgiving holiday was Frank Knox from Hamilton. Frank Knox can trace his ancestry back to John Knox who was born in Scotland in 1515. Mery and Myra Lahn and children Geoff Pierce and Peggy from London spent the Thanksgiving weekend at their cottage in Port Albert. Also Visiting the Latins was Reta Smith from Waterloo, mother of Myra Lahn and Jim and Barbara Bulmer and, children Alexandra and Matthew from Cambridge (Hespeler). Murray Graham and his wife Mary left Saturday morning for . their hunting camp 150 miles north west of 'Thunder Bay, where they will be moose hunting. The Grahams have been hunting as a team for the past 15 years. Murray has been an ardent hunter for 30 years. it has been .10 years since he last shot a moose. The Grahams have operated a restaurant in Monkton for the last 14 years. Seven years ago they became the owners of a cottage in Port" Albert, and at the present time .they are winterizing it with plans to retire to the village in the very, near future. The writer, while walking on the second concession of Ashfield Township Saturday morning near the lake, observed a red fox. A St. Bernard dog has been seen running in the village on several occasions this week. Fromall indications it ap- pears as if it is lost. Coo. Coo. Valley In reading the history of Ashfield Township, we find the name of Coo -Coo Valley. This is a very interesting name, and one that would indicate to you that perhaps many years ago, a very important battle took place at Coo.Coo. Valley. But history reveals that in 1859, the first saw mill was built on the E.>/z or S.'/z of Lot 10, Con. 9. Ashfield Twp. E.D. along the Nine Mile River which flowed through Lot 10 and emptied out at Port Albert. The site of this mill was once known as Coo.Coo Valley. William and Elizabeth Shackleton built this mill, which turned out lumber from the logs as the forests were cleared. Fire destroyed the mill. A second mill was built and this one hada penned up race under the. mill .which gave power to the water- wheel. For many years this mill turned out lumber and shingles for the buildings. Then it became a grist mill, where the farmers from the surrounding area had their grain chopped. Herman Phillips ran the grist mill until the early •1960s. We will have to visit Lot 10, Con. 9 and see what remains of Coo.Coo. Valley. ACW The Anglican Church Women of Christ Anglican Church, Port Albert, held their meeting at the home of Anne Livingstone on October 7. In the business part of the meeting it was decided to make a donation to St. Monica House, Waterloo, as well as a donation to the Bishop's Hunger Fund. A Christmas gift will be sent to a foster child in India. As a winter project the ladies will be working on a quilt.
