"South Half of Lot 26, Concession 8, South Norwich
In 1800, the Crown granted this 200 acres to William Fitzgerald, along with other lands. In 1830 Ebenezer Haley, a native of Pennysylvania, purchased the South 100 acres of the property from the land speculators for his Son, Ebenezer Haley (II), who was born in 1806 in Nova Scotia and came to this area in 1811 with his parents. The Parents, Ebenezer and Sarah, had settled on Lot 22, Concession 8.
Ebenezer II married Rachel Fitzgerald, March 4 837 and by the 1851 census their family consisted of Ann 13, Warren 10, and Comfort 1. Their home was a one storey frame dwelling. By the next census the family consists of Ann who is now Ursula, Warren, and Amy age 8. In 1871, Amy was still at home and Warren, who was married to Flossie about 1864 had a son Ernest, age 6. Warren lived on Ebenezer's property across the road, the NE quarter of lot 26, concession 9. In 1873 Ebenezer sold 10 acres to Warren of lot 26, conc 8. Presumably this was for a house for Warren Haley and family, but Warren did not take to farming and sold it back to Ebenezer the following year and moved to Springford.
Consequently, Ebenezer (II) now 68 yrs of age, sold the 100 acres, the South half of lot 26 to William Russell Smith and wife Almira in 1874. The Smith family did not stay long on the farm. William R. smith sold the property in 1878 to Elias Tupper Malcolm, and bought the Springford Hotel from James Rice.
Elias T. Malcolm was married to Elizabeth Clinton and they had seven children, born in Dereham twp at Five Points. Elias was 47 yrs old when he purchased this farm. His wife Elizabeth had died the previous year. His youngest child was only a year old when Elizabeth died. Mary Abie Moyer, widow, daughter of of Benjamin Fluelling, came to help look after the young family; soon Elias and Mary were married in 1886. Elias had 5 girls and 2 boys; Findlay & Adam who were the youngest. All grew up on this farm. With 5 girls in the family there were probably five weddings in the farmhouse on lot 26. It is known that Jane & Melbourne Haley were married there Jan 1 1891. Findlay married a neighbour girl, Alma Fleming and Adam married a girl from Springford - Dora Wilson.
In 1883 Elias Malcolm was assessed for this farm, South half of lot 26 and NE 1/4 of lot 26, conc 9, 150 acres in all for $5600. Of the 150 acres he had 120 cleared. He had a family of 8 living there and he had one of the largest herds of cattle, 19 head, 6 sheep, 8 pigs and 5 horses. He was 51 yrs old and his 2 sons were boys age 10 and 8 so the girls must have had to help with the milking.

In 1903, Elias now 72 yrs old, sold his property to Oscar M. Wilson from Springford, father of his youngest son's wife Dora. Oscar was a butcher , married to Annie (Mitchell) Westbrook and they lived in Springford at the corner of Sons and West Streets with 3 children; Clinton, Minna and Ira in 1881. Living with them at that time was Oscar's mother, freelove. Other children were Isadora, Lillian, Darwin, Lowell and Melbourne. Lillian Wilson was well known in adulthood as a private nurse who administered to the sick in their homes for many years. Lowell lived in Grand Rapids Michigan. Isadora (Dora) married Adam Malcolm and lived in Springford. Darwin also lived in Springford until his death when hit by a car in 1943.
On the farm, Oscar continued to butcher meat, which he peddled up and down the road. Before Oscar died in 1919 he assigned the farm to his wife Anna and daughter Lillian, but after his death, in 1926 they turned it (farm) over to Melbourne and Darwin.
The house on lot 26 dated back to 1850's and Ebenezer Haley and family. The one and a half storey front section was the oldest portion. It had an unique featulre in the basement made of stone ehich may have been simply a cold storage centre, but was made in the shape of a bake oven, with a huge curved brick ceiling. It may have had some connection with Oscar Wilson's occupation as a butcher, as his meat hanging apparatus still exists in one of the farm barns. ...."
