    Notes:

    From The Beaver Family of Puslinch Township
    By Edna (Beaver) Robertson 1969

    NICHOLAS BEAVER (I) -3rd son of Peter Beaver (I)

    He was born Mar. 11, 1813 in Alsace and died in Morriston on Nov. 21, 1885, age 72 years, 8 months, 11 days. Coming from Toronto with his parents and family, he received lot 27, front concession 8. As Nicholas had fallen in love with a girl in New York State by the name of Charlotte Yantz, he went there in 1838 to be married. Charlotte was born on Jan. 19, 1815 in Wurttemburg, Germany and she was a sister of Peter Beaver’s first wife, Christina.

    From the early records of the Evangelical Church, we learn that Charlotte, prior to her marriage, was converted in New York State, by Mr. J. Harlacher. In 1840, Mr. Harlacher was sent as a missionary to Kitchener, where he was instrumental in starting the first church in that city. When he heard that his convert was so close, he went to visit her and found her out in the field with a child in her arms. This would be her daughter, Mary. She was so happy at meeting him again that she suggested that they hold an old fashioned prayer meeting in her home. Her two brothers-in-law, Philip and Peter rode out on horseback to inform their neighbours of the meeting and, at its close, a class of 45 members was formed. It was through her efforts that the Evangelical Church was organized at Morriston and, at her death, she was without doubt the member of longest standing in the Canada Conference.

    Nicholas cleared his farm and obtained the Crown Deed for it on June 28, 1851. The deed is written on fine parchment paper, is signed by Lord Elgin, Governor, and is in an excellent state of Preservation. He paid 81 pounds, 5 shillings for this property. When his brother, Phillip was killed, he also farmed lot 26 for 20 years until his nephews were of age. He also bought lot 15, concession 4 in Stephen Township from the Canada Company on Feb. 1, 1853 for 62 pounds, 10 shillings. This farm was rented to the Dearing family until his son Nicholas (II) went there in 1876. In religion he was Lutheran and in politics, Liberal.

    Charlotte and Nicholas had a log house for their first home. It was on the Guelph side of the driveway, had 4 rooms with plank floors and a cellar. While I do not know the exact date the present home was built, I do know that my grandfather was born in it in 1849. The basement was completed first and they lived in it until the upper part was built, as it was warmer than the log home. The basement is plastered and it is thought that when it was first used it had a fireplace. As the land was cleared, it being stony, the stones were put together in a separate field and are still there today. My grandfather used to tell us how he suffered with sore hands, caused from handling the stones.

    After Nicholas died, the farm went to his youngest son, Henry, who was the last of the Beaver family to live there. This past year, it was sold to new owners and the part on which the buildings are located has been leased to Mr. Williard Ferguson. The Fergusons have furnished the lovely old stone home with Canadiana and it is now known as “Ten Mile House”. They operate a business here and are engaged in the sale of paintings by Canadian artists.

    Charlotte spent her last years in Crediton, where she lived with her daughter, Lena. She passed away on Aug. 4, 1907, age 92 and is buried in the Crediton Cemetery.

    They had 8 children:
