In addition to the names previously mentioned, I find those of â€" Andrew Ross, Kenneth Kempt, George Ingalls, John Mathison, Samuel Sloane, John Robb and his Sons, John Jr., William and James, William Cuthbertson, Thomas Bork, John Finlay and many others that are quite familiar in this area as descendants of those early pioneers. Another little incident in the record that I find quite interesting is the statement that the Rev. Arch. Colquhoun who settled near Keene in 1834 disagreed with a number of his congregation and moved in 1839 to Colquhuon's Corners, a community now known to most of us as "Cdtesloe", from where he journeyed, via "shanks mares" to Keelers Mills where he held occasional services in the "Mill House". the home of Peter Pierce that genial lost to "East's of people regardless of race or creed" in a manner that few would care to imitate“.
