Anecdote

This information was gathered from Patrick Monogue, grandson of Thomas Henry Monogue.

Thomas Henry was a conservative (in the political sense) ans was well-known by the people in government. Pat thinks that is how his father Thomas John got a job at the post office at the young age of 19. Thomas Henry was a tailor and he worked at a shop on James Street. Later, he owned a small tailor shop on Concession Street. This shop he later turned into "Tom Monogue's Ice Cream Parlour". Marlene Pryor has a picture of the sign for the shop. Although, Patrick does not remember his grandfather having an ice cream store, he does remember him bringing big tins of ice cream to the picnics they would have at Concession Park. Agnes, Thomas's daughter was also a seamstress but she worked for a big tailor outfit on King Street. When Thomas Henry got older he sold the shop and went to work for the Liquor Control Board store at Barton and Ottawa. His health deteriorated and he became confused probably from atherosclerosis and he came to live with Pat's family on Huron Street for a while because grandma couldn't take care of him by herself. He eventually went back to live with grandma and his daughters on Kensington Street. He stayed in the upstairs bedroom and he used to say he heard a baby crying (which would have been Marlene, Dorothy's daughter) but they just told him he was imagining things because they didn't want to explain that Dorothy had a baby. He died in the upstairs bedroom and on the same day "Aunt Lizzie" (Gibbons Armstrong) also died. So Grandma lost both her husband and sister on the same day.; Principal=Thomas Henry Minogue

Anecdote

circa 1934

Kensington Street, Hamilton, Wentworth County, Ontario, Canada; Pat used to go to his Grandma Monogue's house every Wednesday after school because she would bake bread and fry doughnuts on that day.

Grandma also used to give him a card with $5 in it every St. Patrick's Day.
When Grandma's house on Gage Ave. was sold, Jimmy Young called Pat and said that when they cleaned out the attic many of the gifts she had received over the years were still there in their boxes unused (boxes of handkerchiefs, stockings, etc.) and all the cards still had the money in them that people had given her.; Principal=Patrick Thomas Monogue

east half of Lot 30, Concession 2, Adjala, Simcoe County, Ontario, Canada; It appears that Michael Gibbons,bought this parcel which contained 100 acres, from his brother, Patrick who had held it for 11 years. However, within a few months, it appears that he moved to Wellesley Township in Oxford County. His brother, Anthony, also went there but it is not clear if they moved at the same time or why they decided to go there.; Principal=Patrick Gibbons⁶

Land Grant

16 October 1850

Wellesley Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada; According to Thomas Hunter, Michael and Anthony settled in the Queens Bush which is now Wellesley township. They had land on Lot 10, Conc. 12WS, about 2km north of Linwood. It was a plot of land that had been previously owned (transfer type A). This would have been 100 acres. It appears that Anthony and John went with Michael to help him work and clear the land.⁷

Census

1851

Michael and his wife Margaret are living with their 3 children, James, Mary Jane and Michael. He is listed as 32 years old, which would make his birthdate 1819.⁸

East 1/2 Lot 31, Concession 3, King Township, York County, Ontario, Canada; Michael Gibbons leased to Patrick Gibbons, the East 1/2 of Lot 31, Concession 3 in King township (Transaction #798) and then it was converted to a sale in January of 1854 (Sale #5535).; Principal=Patrick Gibbons⁹

Wellington County, Ontario, Canada; Principal=Michael Gibbons²

Census

1861

Concession 12, Wellesley Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada; The evaluation of his farm was:
10 lots held, 100 total acres, 45 under cultivation, 40 under crops, 5 under pasture, 55 under wood.
Cash value of farm - $850.00
Cash value of implements, machinery - $140.00
total Value of all Livestock - $170.00

20 acres of spring wheat, 420 bushels potatoes, 4 acres peas - 80 bushels. 5 acres oats - 100 bushels. 1/2 acre potatoes - 50 bushels. 1 acre turnips - 100 bushels. 3 tons of hay. wool - 24 lbs. maple sugar - 40 lbs. bulls or oxen over 3 years of age - 3, steers or heifers under 3 years - 3, milk cows - 3, sheep - 9, pigs - 7, butter 80 lbs.

Note from Alex Pryor - The woodlot would represent saleable wood as well a building material and fuel, as well as the Waterloo/Wellington County sugarbush maple stands which still largely remain. The larger crop quantities would be mostly for sale, the smaller potato patch would be for home use. The maple sugar, butter, milk of only three cows and flannel would be mostly for personal use. The oxen were required because Michael had not been able or willing to switch over to the more desirable horses he later owned. The heifers under 3 years would be for meat, as would the sheep and pigs. The heavy, largely manual work of this family would have demanded a high protein diet, including large quantities of meat.¹⁰

Census

1861

Michael and his wife Margaret are living with their 6 children, James, Mary Jane, Margaret, David, Francis, and Sarah, his mother-in-law, Jane Wilson, and a relative, John Gibbons. Michael is listed as 40 years old - this would put his birthdate as 1821.¹¹

Residence

7 October 1907

Aurora, York County, Ontario, Canada; Although there is an Aurora in York County by Richmond Hill, the marriage record states that Michael was born and residing in Aurora. This implies that he was living in Aurora, Oxford County, as he was born in Oxford County. However, in 1901, he is living in Hamilton, Ontario and his mother is living in Aurora in York County, so I believe that when he got married, he was living in Aurora in York County.^4,5

County Mayo, Connacht Province, Ireland^1,3,2,4

Marriage

circa 1829

Ireland; This marriage date is based on the birthdate of daughter, Mary.; Principal=Bridget Burke³

Immigration

1832

Canada; He landed in Quebec after an eight week voyage and then travelled on to York County, Ontario. Some articles state he came in 1830, however, the 1901 Census for his daughter, Mary, states they came in 1832.^3,5

Land

circa 1832

Lot 33, Concession 3, King Township, York County, Ontario, Canada; This consisted of 200 acres of Clergy Reserve Land which was acreage leased to farmers and the proceeds went to support the Protestant Church.⁶

Occupation

1833

King Township, York County, Ontario, Canada; He worked for 14 years in his sawmill in Glenville. Of course, in his spare time he would have had to clear his land for a homestead.³

Land Grant

26 August 1834

east half of Lot 5, Concession 2, King Township, York County, Ontario, Canada⁷

Land Grant

22 January 1836

east half of Lot 30, Concession 2, Adjala, Simcoe County, Ontario, Canada; Patrick heard of an Irish community in the township of Adjala and so he moved there and bought the east half of Lot 30 on Concession 2 for $62.10 (Transaction #2804). It was a Transfer Type S from the Canada Company originally. He paid on the property each year until 05 November 1847When he received the deed. He then gave (or sold) the property to his brother, Michael Gibbons.⁸

(Witness) Death

circa 1838

Ontario, Canada; The cause of death is not known but in a newspaper article written in 1938 about the family the death of an older daughter of Patrick's is discussed. There is the possiblity that this is a mistake and the information about the daughter's death is actually the story of Bridget's death. It could have been daughter, Honora, however, she would have only been three at the time. Anyway, the story is that this person was poisoned by eating blood root in mistake for pepper of krinkle root, a spicy edible root dug up under wet leaves in the forest. This person is said to be buried in the Anglican Cemetery on the hilltop as you approach Newmarket from the west on Eagle Street. During this time, only 6 Catholic families lived in the Newmarket area and a Catholic cemetery had not yet been built.; Principal=Bridget Burke^3,6

Marriage

1844

Ontario, Canada; Principal=Catherine Banks^9,10,11

Land

1844

east half of Lot 31, Concession 3, King Township, York County, Ontario, Canada; He had decided that he preferred King township to Adjala and this is the land where he built the family farmhouse that was to stay in the Gibbons family for 102 years. It was located in the shelter of the hills and to the south of a big "sugar loaf hill" which came to be known as "Paddy's or Gibbon's Peak" and was the most prominent landmark for miles around.^3,6

Land Grant

5 November 1847

Adjala, Ontario, Canada; It appears that Michael Gibbons,bought this parcel which contained 100 acres, from his brother, Patrick who had held it for 11 years. However, within a few months, it appears that he moved to Wellesley Township in Oxford County. His brother, Anthony, also went there but it is not clear if they moved at the same time or why they decided to go there.; Principal=Michael Gibbons⁸

(Witness) Death

before 1851

King Township, Ontario, Canada; From a newspaper article written in 1838 about Patrick Gibbons - "Then the oldest daughter was poisoned by eating blood root in mistake for pepper or krinkle root, a spicy edible root to be dug up under wet leaves in the forest, and eaten as a relish in the spring season. From this mistake she died, and another tragedy clouded the home life, calling forth the sympathy of neighbours. These two children were buried in what is now known as the Anglican Cemetery on the hill top as you approach Newmarket from the west, on Eagle Street." Although I believe Honora was the second oldest daughter, I believe that this story referenced Honora. Her brother, Michael, died at about age 15 and it was these two who are buried in the Anglican Cemetery. Neither child is listed in the 1851 Census.; Principal=Honora Gibbons⁶

(Witness) Death

circa 1851

York County, Ontario, Canada; According to the newspaper articles, Michael fell from a horse at age 16 and broke his arm. The arm eventually became so infected that it caused his death.; Principal=Michael Gibbons^6,3

Religion

a devout Roman Catholic and was one of a committee of six who founded and built the first Catholic Church in Newmarket. No picture of the church has been found but it is understood to have been a roughcast building about 20 x 30 feet in size. Patrick also helped to secure the building of the present church in 1870.³

Politics

a Reformer in his political views but never ran for an elected office. In the Commemorative Biographical Record of York County published in 1907, Patrick is spoken of as a "man of unusual intellectual powers, well trained in his youth and had many scholarly attainments".³

Census

14 January 1861

"The following are the names thus far drawn for the six battalions to be furnished by the United Counties of York and Peel. The whole 795 names for Peel have been drawn, and about 1400 out of the 3,975 required from York including the city of Toronto.

Luke Gibbons

A York Pioneer

93 Year Old Resident Of King Township

In 1830 Patrick Gibbons landed in Canada, a typical young Irish immigrant, with no capital but his health and strength. He found work first in the saw mill of William Lloyd, at Glenville. This saw mill had owners who were well known in their day; Mark Hughes, Ellis Hughes, Van Allan, father of James Van Allan and lastly Richard Kirton, a man who by hard work and thrift accumulated a fortune that enabled him to leave a legacy to the Baptist Denomination for building of Kirton Memorial Hall, a part of the McMaster University buildings in Toronto.
Patrick first settled on Lot 33, Con. 3, King Township (200 acres) of Clergy Reserve Land. Then he heard of a fine Irish community in Adjala Township, in the County of Simcoe. This home did not have the appeal of his first choice however, and after a few years spent there he came back to King Township, and bought from Canada Company , the East ½ of Lot 31, Con. 3. It was hilly, but here he built himself a comfortable house and outbuildings, in the shelter of a big sugar loaf hill, locally taking the name of "Gibbons' Peak" for it was a prominent land mark for miles around. He stayed the rest of his blessed days, contented and happy with his growing family around him. In the first years, sale of timber cordwood, the burning of lime and charcoal added to the family funds.
In 1846 this industrious settler made and sold fifty-five thousand hand made shingles to George Shanks for his new farm buildings at $2.50 a thousand, and in the same year he sold to Hewitt and Strachan, contractors all the stones they could find on his farm for $40. These went into the macadamizing of Yonge Street when that improvement to this highway was done. For two winters he made shingles selling his total output to neighbours. This added well to his income in those days, and gave him a good start on his land payments. Lime from the Gibbons kilns was used in the building of the King Christian Church and also the Kettleby Temperance Hall. On the "millstone creek" on his farm, the mill stones for the Glenville flour mill built by the Cawthras were fabricated. These stones are now preserved at the Glennville Public School grounds as relics. With all this activity and with his growing children around him the Gibbons farm was a happy home.
Patrick married Catherine Banks in 1844. Five children were born to them. The oldest son Michael, when 16, was killed by being thrown from a horse. The fractured arm mortified, as competent surgical care was not available. This was a sad loss to the home. Then the oldest daughter was poisoned by eating blood root in mistake for pepper or krinkle root, a spicy edible root to be dug up under wet leaves in the forest, and eaten as a relish in the spring season. From this mistake she died, and another tragedy clouded the home life, calling forth the sympathy of neighbours. These two children were buried in what is now known as the Anglican Cemetery on the hill top as you approach Newmarket from the west, on Eagle Street. This ground was donated by Dr. Beswick in the early days, for a public burying ground. Beswick's grave stone says he died aged 119 years. The stone stands in the south east corner of the grounds, and can easily be found. At that date, 1836, there were families in the Newmarket district, and St. John's Church had not been started.
The next sons, John and James left home, to go into business for themselves. Luke, the next son was a mainstay. He taught school awhile, but came back to the farm, as the aging parents desired. He soon got into local temperance societies, literary and other social circles. The Farmers' Institute work found him an active and useful helper. He was of a sociable disposition, and from his uniform good nature made his company agreeable to young and old. He was appointed a Justice of the Peace and Commissioner in the High Court of Justice and held this for many years. In politicas he has always been a liberal. His life long friend, Sir William Mulock, whose farm almost adjoined the Gibbons home often exchanged friendly visits with his friend "Luke".
Sir William years ago encouraged orchard planting in North York and yearly gave generous prizes to his constituents for the best plantings. Luke was a prize winner for his orchard, and was well rewarded in after years by the fine product of his trees which gave him both pleasure and profit.
A lot of Indian relics were found on this farm, and Luke had a fine collection. A black stone book is among the rare pieces he has. This object must have been lost by white missionaries or explorers. Archeologists are at a loss to explain it. He collected a fine library, and was a great reader, and one of the best posted men in the community.
Then Luke took as his bride, Annie Menton of Toronto, in June, 1885. They were married in St. Patrick's Church, Toronto and toured to Niagara Falls, the scene of so many happy honeymoons. Their children are Frank, John, and Mrs. Geo. Paxton, with whom he is now living.
He is perhaps one of the oldest residents of King Township, being 93 on 23rd of April 1938, retaining fair health, and his memory unimpaired. His whole life has been spent within sight of his birthplace, and he is rooted in the soil of his nativity as firmly as a sturdy oak tree and loyal to the end to what he had identified himself in his young manhood. His long life can best be appreciated when it is remembered that he was living when:
First Parliament of Canada met at Bytown.
The first oil well drilled in Pennsylvania in Ont.
The first telegraph was invented.
The first telephone was invented.
The first Atlantic cable laid.
When slavery was the law in the U.S.A.
When pounds, shillings and pence were currency in Canada.
Before France was a republic.
When Ottawa was Bytown, Kettleby was Tyrwhitt's Mills, Aurora was Machell's Corners.
When candles were the only illumination."
