    Notes:



    On March 24, 1851, John Sparling married Mary Jane Lowe of Pakenham. The preacher, Thomas Walker Constable, a Wesleyan Minister, performed the cere mony. The witnesses were Thomas Scott, brother-in-law of the bride, and Eliza An n Dixon, sister of the bride.

    Grandpa's obituary states: "Fifty-six years ago he took unto himself a helpmate in the person of Mary Jane Lowe of Pakenham, and together they br avely went to work to hew out a home in the forest."

    This writer has a copy of their marriage certificate which seems authentic although by this time very worn and battered. Doubtless the original o ne was destroyed when in 1881 the first house, a log one, was burned to the groun d. A beautiful red brick home rose in its place, built in stages as the economy allowed. The farm was rolling land, green with grain; an altogether beaut iful site in the summer.

    Grandpa Sparling was twenty-three years old when he married. To quote his obituary again: "He was of retiring disposition - and altogether a fine t ype of man."

    He had contributed of his time and money for the betterment of the communi ty.
