Dean, with a good log house, a frame barn and shed, a nice young orchard just beginning to bear and a clearing of about seventy five acres on it. He moved on it at once for a homestead, and afterwards he and his sons bought lot 19, in concession 9, and lots 23, 25, 27 in concession 11, making sixteen hundred acres.
They cleared them all up into two hundred acre farms, excepting lot 25, concession 11. He gave five of his sons a two hundred acre farm each, one son a medical profession, another son a legal profession, and to the youngest son, John Addyman he gave the homestead (Lots 22 and 23 concession 11).
