    Notes:

    The late Nora Carlaw wrote:

    James Carlaw and his wife Mary Isobelle Ferguson came to the United States from Scotland probably about 1840. At that time there was a great deal of anti British feeling in the U.S.A., so they moved to Chippawa, Ontario, where he a shoemaker store. His family kept getting larger until finally, he found he couldn't make shoes fast enough to provide for his family, so he moved to a farm east of Arthur, on what is now hwy #9, in West Garafraxa Township in 1859 on concession 3, lot 33. The family attended Arthur Public School.

    According to the Wellington County Directory 1870-1871 James Carlaw had a farm on con. 3 lot 33 and James and his son John had a farm on con. 3 lot 34. James Carlaw was a shoemaker in Arthur, and John Carlaw was a carpenter.

    James Carlaw was born in 1808 and died on June 30, 1898. He married Mary Isobelle Ferguson, born 1822, died Nov. 8, 1896. The family was born in Chippawa, except Robert and Maria who were born in West Garafraxa.

    Sime Family History
    Written by Mrs. Harold Sime
    Shelburne, Ontario
    8 Families

    Thomas Sime born in Scotland in 1817 and his wife Jane Moir born in Scotland in 1814 immigrated to Canada. His trade was stone masonry. I have not yet established for sure where they came from in Scotland. Some say from near the Firth of Forth.

    The Sime families belonged to the Fraser Clan in Scotland and the Moirs to the Gordon Clan, According the History books the name Sime originated from the name Simon Fraser and there are many different ways of spelling. My own name was Emily Darling Fraser and I married Harold Sime. My grandparents also immigrated to Canada, also my great grandparents about the same time as the Simes. They came from Dunkeld, Scotland and worked at stone masonry also. They settled in Proton Township in 1860

    I don't know the exact date the Simes arrived in Canada but according to family records the eldest son Peter was born in Montreal in 1845. Thomas born in 1846. John in 1849 and Robert born in Montreal August 16, 1851. They came to East Luther Township, Dufferin County in 1854 and settled on Lot 25 Concession One. They had four other children, George who died from an accident in 1912. Mary born in 1857, Jane 1868 and William 1860. They were all pioneer farmers in East Luther except William who settled in Amaranth Township. Peter later to Melancthon

    For more information on the history of East Luther refer to "100 years along the Grand" by Esther Graham who has been of great assistance in compiling this family tree. Also the story of Dufferin - Into the High County by Adelaide Leitch. For the history of Amaranth "The roots of Amaranth" by Elizabeth Anne Keeling, although it does not mention the Wm. Sime Family, it tells of the neighborhood, and how the pioneers lived. The Wm. Sime family attended Blacks Corners Presbyterian Church and Wm. was a trustee when Amaranth College was built. He also had a share in the Edgar telephone line.
