Chronicles A Ginger Farm In Ontario a historic memory

A coastal rural reminiscence describes a southern Nelson Township area in Matton County Ontario. It recalls early settler life around 1807 to 1840, the Bates and Baker families, churches built in 1822, and Egerton Ryerson missionary work. The piece traverses landscape from escarpments to farms, mills, and a Mount Nemo gravel pit, ending with reflections on Ginger Farm and a farewell to the author’s typewriter mood.
