An unedited transcription of a page 1 article from 12 Oct 1911 Simcoe Reformer. James McBride James McBride was born the 16th day of November, 1828, near the city of Belfast, Ireland. When he was six months old, he, with his parents and brothers and sister left Belfast for Canada. After a long, tedious voyage they landed at Quebec, and ultimately made their way to what is now Norfolk county. His parents settled on a farm about two and a half miles west of Dover. Here they lived a few years, when they moved to Doan's Hollow, where Mr. McBride lived until he married Isabelle Austin on Sept. 28, 185[1]. A year later he and his wife settled on the farm at Marburg, where he died on Tuesday morning, Oct. 6, 1911. |
