| 3453 | In 1901 and 1911, Agnes was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her parents and siblings. In 1921, Agnes was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her parents and siblings. She was employed as a stenographer. On 30 Oct 1926, Agnes was residing at 383 Wilson Avenue in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with her parents, when she crossed the border at Buffalo, New York, USA bound for Detroit, Michigan, USA, to visit her "fiance" (sic), Howard Robinson. However, this is the same day their wedding took place in Hamilton. It seems the "fiance" reference is incorrect and should probably read "husband." It would appear the Buffalo border crossing was more likely their honeymoon commencing. In 1930, Agnes was residing in Detroit, Wayne, Michigan, USA with her husband. They had no children. Her brother Alexander Bruce Stewart was also residing with them. In 1940, Agnes was residing in Sterling (sic), Macomb, Michigan, USA with her husband. They had no children. (This most likely refers to Sterling Heights, Macomb, Michigan, USA, a suburb of Detroit, Michigan, USA, as Sterling is in northern Michigan.) In 1957, Agnes and Howard were residing in Roseville, Macomb, Michigan, USA, a suburb of Detroit, Michigan, USA. Agnes died in 1980 in Gaylord, Michigan, USA, but was buried in Hamilton, Wenthworth, Ontario, Canada. | Stewart, Agnes Meryl (I14681)

I regret now that I didn't carry that print off when Aunt Helen, the last McVean to inhabit the old house, gathered the family and announced she was selling and moving to a nursing home in Chatham. "Come and carry away those things which you love," she said. Aunt Helen wanted my wife Catherine and I to move the Lilliputian play house that Grandfather had built behind the house for his daughters, to our Oakville home, which she felt was it's preferred retirement setting, but we felt the little house had taken root and left it where it was along with father's footprint. The things we did remove from the old house remain tangible memories of an age of gracious Victorian clutter. A set of dishes from the pantry is now a reminder of 25 assorted aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered at the expansive dining table while Grandfather carved a massive roast. They also remind me of the kitchen, awash with helpful aunts while the uncles rested with loosened belts on each of nine chesterfields. I also took the century old wooden work bench from the tool shed to remind me of Grandfather teaching me to make hickory bows and arrows. There's a picture from the wall of the tiny upstairs bedroom furnished with child size furniture, where the smallest of us slept on visits. A pair of cast iron fire dogs from the cavernous many chambered basement where Grandmother used to supervise the canning and the laundry in pre technology days when such things were done by real people. An antique muzzle-loading rifle and a dress sword, relics of some bygone war, came from the labrynthian attic where there was a ghost said to be a relative of "Uncle Tom", which is quite possible, as Josia Henson's granddaughter was my father's nurse. An old cast iron dog which cracked nuts with it's mouth when you pumped it's tail reminds me of a library full of books autographed by their authors to my Grandfather. I also took the books. Grandfather William McVean was born in 1865 in Yarker Ontario, where his father, Alexander, a good friend of Sir John A. MacDonald, operated a grist mill. Alexander walker all the way from Yarker to Dresden to find a new home for his five sons and a daughter. His wife Sara Hennery had passed on. Alice, his only daughter, died in Dresden during the 1918 flu epidemic. Alexander set each of his 5 sons up in business: James in hardware, Sandy and John in milling, and Osgood and William in the O. and W. McVean Hub and Spoke Works, which became the town's principal employer. That was in 1883 when Willy was only 18 years old. The factory site is now a baseball diamond which would have pleased my father who once had a chance to try out for the Detroit Tigers. Shortly after Grandfather's first wife Emily Rush died he bought the home, where he was to spend the rest of his life, from the original builder, his brother John. It was a large, wandering red brick Victorian house on a corner, surrounded by fruit trees and beautiful gardens. Grandfather moved in with his two daughters Jessie and Helen, and married Maggie Henderson of Sparta. Willy and Maggie produced two boys, Ernest and Gerald, and three daughters, Marion, Maude and Katherine. Willy died in 1939 and Maggie in 1953. The Willy McVean house, as it became known, was a hugely happy boisterously busy place to a small boy and his many cousins. Exciting too. Grandfather was one of the first in Dresden to own a car. It was a Model T Ford and my 12-year-old father taught him how to drive it in the Dresden Fair Grounds. Later came a 1920ish Buick in which we would all careen down gravel roads to the cottage on Walpole Island, where the aunts would cook chicken while the uncles fished. Willy and Maggie traveled a great deal after retirement so Willy always bought two of everything, leaving the extras packed in trunks in the attic so he'd be ready if suddenly overtaken by the wanderlust. Once he rushed into one of Grandmother's very formal tea parties and announced, "Maggie, I'm going the South America and the train leaves Chatham in an hour. If you're going, be ready. " She was. Maggie was always ready. There were tears when the old house finally left the family but Aunt Helen died comforted in the knowledge that the new owner had been one of her piano students and shared many of the memories. /30/ Bill McVean Associates Limited Head Office: 245 Watson Avenue Oakville, Ontario CANADA L6J 3V2 Phone: 905-845-6584 Studio: 204 Richmond Street West (405) Toronto Ontario CANADA M5V 1V6 Phone: 416-599-0490/ Fax 416-351-1308 | McVean, William Mattice (I11123)

| 3495 | In 1901, at age 6, Andrew was residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, on his parents' farm with his siblings. On 22 Mar 1918, Andrew was drafted to serve in the Canadian Expeditionary Force in WWI. He served as a Gunner, 64th Depot Battery, Canadian Field Artillery (Army). Andrew was employed as a farmer at the time (presumably on the family farm.) In 1921, Andrew was residing in Puslinch, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, living independantly as a farmer, owning his own farm. 67 year old James Black was working as a servant in his house. -------------- (This article was originally published in the Puslinch Pioneer, sometime in 1979.) Andrew Ord of Morriston By Cleo Melzer One day that Andrew and Mary Ord (nee Maltby) will never forget is December 17, 1930. That was the day Andrew was trapped in a well on the John R. Dickson farm. It is hard to know who suffered more, Andrew, who hung over the black void that yawned forty feet below, with his right arm pinned by rocks, or Mary, who waited anxiously above. The Ords had been staying with the Dicksons while Andrew did repairs and worked on the stable. On that December day, forty-nine years ago, Andrew began working on the well around mid-afternoon. After he cleaned up the bottom of the well, he climbed back up by carefully finding toeholds in the rock cribbing. Twelve feet from the top he decided to brace the pipe from the pump. As he was putting in one of the last stakes, a rock came loose, starting a chain reaction, which resulted in a cave-in. The brace he had just put in saved him from being crushed to death, as it caught the boulders and locked them in an arch formation, three feet thick, just inches from his head. John Dickson, who had gone for some bolts to assist in the work, came back a few minutes later and found the wll mouth caved in. Frantically, he called out, and heard a weak cry from beneath the mass of rock. Andrew was alive! John immediately called in a rescue party. John Elliot, a Puslinch well digger, and William Blair, a neighbour, supervised the two hundred volunteers who came to help in the rescue. Mary was amazed at the number of people who came, and said the highway was lined with cars. They were able to give Andrew some nourishment by lowering a flask tied with string through the rocks. Andrew’s right arm was painful and he found the cold unbearable as he was wearing only a smock and shirt and no gloves. Yet, he was in constant communication with the men and even directed some of the rescue work. The bitter cold also hampered the rescuers who had to work in relays digging a deep lateral shaft, three feet in diameter, to the well where Andrew was trapped. The Guelph Public Works Department contributed a load of equipment and cribbing to support the tunnel. At ten o'clock that night, six long hours after the cave-in, Andrew was dragged through the tunnel. Although he was numb from the cold, he was able to walk with assistance to the Dickson home. He was put to bed, surrounded with hot water bottles and piled high with heavy blankets. The newspapers called him brave and courageous. His rescuers felt it was his incredible stamina that pulled him through the ordeal. The Ords have two children - Ken, of Freelton, an employee of the MTC, and Ruth Bishop, President of the Hamilton Conference [UCW] Presbyterial. The couple attend Morriston United Church where Andrew has been an elder for the past fifty-four years. Andrew has had many trying experiences in his long life, but feels the well episode was the worst. Because of his remarkable faith, he has been able to overcome them all. The Ords feel they have much to be thankful for. | Ord, Andrew William (I12106)
