NAPIER WIND PROJECT Errata Sheet

ERRATA

It is of note that since the Project commenced the Study Area has been revised. The Feeder Line was originally proposed along Kerwood Road with the connection point at the Corner of Munn St. & Kerwood Rd. The Feeder Line has since been removed from the Project (the Project will connect directly into the Grid at the switching station). The Study Area specified in the Natural Heritage Assessment Report/EIS and the Archaeological and Cultural Heritage Reports has not been updated as these reports were completed under the original study area scenario.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Under a contract awarded by wpd Canada Corporation in October 2011, ARA conducted a heritage assessment of lands with the potential to be impacted by the proposed Napier Wind Project in the Township of Adelaide Metcalfe, Middlesex County, Ontario. The proponent has secured a 5.4 MW contract to sell power to the Ontario Power Authority under the FIT program (F-002194-WIN-130-601), and is preparing their REA application in accordance with the requirements set out in O. Reg. 359/09 made under Part V.0.1 of the Environmental Protection Act.

This report documents the background research, on-site inspection, potential resource identification and evaluations involved in the heritage assessment of the proposed project location and its immediate surroundings, and presents conclusions and recommendations concerning potential impacts. The study was conducted in order to fulfill the requirements of a cultural heritage assessment report, as discussed in Section 20 (Consideration of Archaeological and Heritage Resources) and Section 23 (Heritage Assessment) of O. Reg. 359/09.

The study area for this heritage assessment consists of the proposed project location, the participating properties, and all abutting/adjacent properties (see Map 1–Map 2). The proposed project location comprises two wind turbines and associated project infrastructure in the vicinity of Kerwood (see Section 2.0). This infrastructure falls primarily on two participating properties of privately-owned agricultural lands located northeast of the Kerwood Road/Napperton Drive intersection and northeast of the Napperton Drive/Brown Road intersection. In legal terms, these properties are located on parts of Lots 8 and 10, Concession 4 SER in the Geographic Township of Adelaide. Additional project electrical lines are planned within a 7.74 ha corridor extending along the ROWs of Brown Road, Napperton Drive and Kerwood Road. This corridor falls within three historic road allowances laid out between Lots 7–10, Concessions 4–5 SER and Lots 6–7, Concessions 5–6 SER in the Geographic Township of Adelaide.

This assessment was conducted for the purpose of identifying heritage resources within the study area that may be subject to project impacts. The approach consisted of the following:

• Background research concerning the project context, natural context, and historical context of the study area; • The identification of any Protected Properties within the limits of the study area; • The creation of an inventory of all potential BH resources or CHLs within the study area; • A description of the location and nature of these potential heritage resources; • An evaluation of each potential heritage resource against the criteria set out in O. Reg. 9/06 for determining CHVI; • An evaluation of potential direct and indirect project impacts on all Protected Properties and newly-recognized BH resources and CHLs within the study area (if identified); and • The provision of suggested strategies for the conservation of identified heritage resources.

The project was carried out in accordance with the provisions of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O.18 and O. Reg. 359/09 made under the Environmental Protection Act. All

2.0 PROJECT CONTEXT

The proponent has secured a 5.4 MW contract to sell power to the Ontario Power Authority under the FIT program (F-002194-WIN-130-601). The project proposes to establish a Class 4 wind facility consisting of two Repower MM92–2.05 MW wind turbines on participating properties north of Napperton Drive. These turbines will have a hub height of 100 m above grade, a blade length of 45.2 m, and a sweep area of 6,720 m2. A step-up transformer will be installed next to each turbine, and will transform the electricity generated in the nacelle to a common collection system line voltage (Stantec 2011:Section 2.0).

In addition to the two MM92 turbines (Turbines r1 and r2), proposed project infrastructure comprises two temporary crane pads/laydown areas, two access roads/crane paths, one switching station, two underground collector lines and one feeder line (see Appendix A). The switching station will contain metering and isolating equipment as well as grounding and control systems, and will be built on a fenced gravel pad measuring roughly 30 x 40 m. The proposed feeder line will be carried by electrical poles within the ROWs of Brown Road, Napperton Drive and Kerwood Drive, and will tie into the Hydro One distribution network at Katesville Drive (Stantec 2011:Section 2.0).

Since the land is currently used for agricultural purposes, all of the temporary work and staging areas will be restored to pre-impact conditions once the construction of the wind facility is completed. Construction is anticipated to begin in Fall 2012, and the Contract Date for Commercial Operation is Summer 2014. Decommissioning will occur approximately 20.5 years after Contract Date (Stantec 2011:Section 2.0).

3.0 METHODOLOGY

This study was designed to examine the heritage resources of the project location and the surrounding area in accordance with the REA requirements of O. Reg. 359/09. Specifically, Section 20 requires that applicable projects must consider whether the project may have an impact on local heritage resources, and Section 23 stipulates that a cultural heritage assessment be undertaken if there is potential for such impacts. The following is a discussion of the key concepts essential to any heritage assessment (Section 3.1), and a detailed overview of the methods used in the heritage assessment of the Napier Wind Project (Section 3.2).

3.1 Key Concepts

Heritage assessments are methodologically rooted in the proper identification of Built Heritage (BH) resources and Cultural Heritage Landscapes (CHLs), and in the evaluation of their Cultural Heritage Value or Interest (CHVI). These pivotal terms play a significant role in all types of heritage assessments, and therefore require clear definition and consistent usage:

• Cultural Heritage Value or Interest: “the aesthetic, historic, scientific, cultural, social or spiritual importance or significance for past, present and future generations. The heritage value of an historic place is embodied in its character-defining materials, forms, location,

______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 5 ______

spatial configurations, uses and cultural associations or meanings” (Parks Canada 2010:5). • Built Heritage Resource: “one or more significant buildings, structures, monuments, installations or remains associated with architectural, cultural, social, political, economic or military history and identified as being important to a community. These resources may be identified through designation or heritage conservation easement under the Ontario Heritage Act, or listed by local, provincial or federal jurisdictions” (MMAH 2005:29). • Cultural Heritage Landscape: “a defined geographical area of heritage significance which has been modified by human activities and is valued by a community. A landscape involves a grouping(s) of individual heritage features such as structures, spaces, archaeological sites and natural elements, which together form a significant type of heritage form, distinctive from that of its constituent elements or parts. Examples may include but are not limited to, heritage conservation districts designated under the Ontario Heritage Act; and villages, parks, gardens, battlefields, mainstreets and neighbourhoods, cemeteries, trailways and industrial complexes of cultural heritage value” (MMAH 2005:29).

The term “cultural landscape” was first coined in 1908 by noted German geographer Otto Schluter in his formulation of the distinction between natural and cultural landscapes (James and Martin 1981:177). The concept was expanded and further developed by American geographer Carl Sauer in his 1925 paper The Morphology of Landscape, in which he declared:

The cultural landscape is fashioned from a natural landscape by a culture group. Culture is the agent, the natural area is the medium, the cultural landscape is the result … The natural landscape is of course of fundamental importance for it supplies the materials out of which the cultural landscape is formed. The shaping force, however, lies in the culture itself (citation from Mitchell 2003:27).

The method and theory of cultural landscape studies were further debated and refined in academic circles in a process which culminated in UNESCO’s World Heritage Convention of 1992. The Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention defines several types of cultural landscapes (e.g. designed landscapes, evolved landscapes and associative landscapes), lists the criteria for determining their significance, and suggests methods for their conservation (UNESCO 2008). While any landscapes that have been altered by humans constitute a cultural landscape, those with demonstrable heritage value, or cultural heritage landscapes (CHLs), have been marked for special consideration.

Whereas the identification of a BH resource is fairly straightforward, CHLs manifest in a much wider variety of forms and styles. As a consequence, CHLs often possess heritage values which arise from a number of different criteria. Accordingly, the identification, evaluation and conservation of cultural landscapes can be extremely complex. CHLs can stretch across multiple properties or even multiple municipalities. Defining their extents requires careful consideration of the components of the landscape and an understanding of the historical processes that led to its creation. In many cases, input from community heritage organizations is crucial to the process.

______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 6 ______

It has been recognized that the heritage value of a CHL is often derived from its association with historical themes that characterize the development of human settlement in an area (MNR 1975; Scheinman 2006). In Ontario, typical themes which may carry heritage value within the community include (but are not limited to) Pre-Contact habitation; early European exploration; early European and First Nations contacts; pioneer settlement; the development of transportation networks; agriculture and rural life; early industry and commerce; and/or urban development. Individual CHLs may touch on a number of these themes simultaneously.

The heritage value of a CHL can also originate from non-historical and non-associative values. Just like BH resources, CHLs can be defined by physical values, design values, and/or contextual values. Although significant measures of design or physical value are relatively rare in the case of CHLs (i.e. few have a high degree of craftsmanship, few display scientific merit, etc.), contextual value is quite common due to their frequent links to the surroundings and importance in defining the character of any given area.

3.2 Approach

Typically, a heritage assessment consists of the following principal components: 1) historical research, site analysis (i.e. a field survey) and evaluation of CHVI; 2) identification of the significance and heritage attributes of the heritage resource; 3) description of the proposed development or site alteration; 4) measurement of development of site alteration impact; 5) consideration of alternatives, mitigation and conservation methods; 6) implementation and monitoring of recommended methods; and 7) a summary statement and conservation recommendations (MCL 2006:2–3). A similar method can be adopted for heritage assessments concerned with renewable energy projects, albeit slightly modified to accommodate the specific requirements of O. Reg. 359/09.

As mentioned in Section 1.0, the study area for this heritage assessment consists of the proposed project location, the participating properties, and all abutting/adjacent properties. Section 1 of O. Reg. 359/09 defines the ‘project location’ as “a part of land and all or part of any building or structure in, on or over which a person is engaging in or proposes to engage in the project and any air space in which a person is engaging in or proposes to engage in the project”. According to Section 20 of O. Reg. 359/09, the participating properties can be understood to comprise the parcels of land “on which the project location is situated”, and the abutting properties encompass all lands that abut “the parcel of land on which the project location is situated”. Adherence to these definitions is essential for any successful heritage assessment.

The boundaries of the study area were decided upon through the careful consideration of the requirements set out in Sections 19, 20 and 23 of O. Reg. 359/09, coupled with ARA’s preferred business practices. For Protected Properties, Sections 19 and 20 require that a study area comprising the project location, participating properties and abutting properties be considered. For heritage resources located on non-Protected Properties, however, a literal reading of Sections 20 and 23 would limit the scope of such an assessment to only the project location. As part of its business practice, however, ARA considers a larger study area to ensure that all potential project impacts are identified. Accordingly, the study area for this heritage assessment consists of the project location, all participating properties, and all abutting properties, thereby exceeding the heritage assessment requirements set out in O. Reg. 359/09. ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 7 ______

In order to effectively evaluate potential BH resources and CHLs within this study area in a meaningful and objective format, a combination of background research and a field survey is essential. Background information is obtained from aerial photographs, historical maps (e.g. illustrated atlases), archival sources (e.g. historical publications and records), published secondary sources (online and print), and local historical organizations. Where possible, further information should be sought from the MTCS. The field survey component involves the collection of primary data through systematic photographic documentation of potential heritage resources within the study area (i.e. a windshield survey). Photographs capturing all potential BH resources and CHLs are taken, as are general views of the surrounding landscape. Given that such surveys are limited to areas of public access (e.g. roadways, intersections, non-private lands, etc.), the documentation of properties obscured by trees or distance is often problematic. As such, there is always the possibility that obscured heritage features may be missed.

In order to objectively identify heritage resources, O. Reg. 9/06 made under the Ontario Heritage Act sets out three principal criteria for determining CHVI. These criteria include Design/Physical Value, Historical/Associative Value and Contextual Value:

• Design or Physical Value manifests when a feature is a rare, unique, representative or early example of a style, type, expression, material or construction method; when it displays a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic value; or when it displays a high degree of technical or scientific achievement; • Historical or Associative Value appears when a resource has direct associations with a theme, event, belief, person, activity, organization or institution that is significant to the community; yields or has the potential to yield information that contributes to the understanding of a community or culture; or demonstrates or reflects work or ideas of an architect, builder, artist, designer or theorist who is significant to the community; • Contextual Value is implied when a feature is important in defining, maintaining or supporting the character of an area; is physically, functionally, visually or historically linked to its surroundings; or is a landmark.

All potential BH resources and CHLs within the study area must be evaluated against these criteria. If a potential resource is found to possess one or more heritage attributes that meet of any of the criteria of O. Reg. 9/06, it can then be considered an identified heritage resource. Once a heritage resource has been determined to have CHVI in this manner, whether an isolated BH resource or an expansive CHL spanning multiple properties, Subsection 20 (1) (a) (ii) of O. Reg. 359/09 requires that an evaluation of “any impact” of the project be carried out, and “measures to avoid, eliminate or mitigate the impact” be proposed.

Project impacts may include direct and/or indirect impacts. The former MCL’s InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (2006:3) provides an overview of several major types of negative impacts, including but not limited to:

• Destruction of any, or part of any, significant heritage attributes; • Alteration that is not sympathetic, or is incompatible, with the historic fabric and appearance;

______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 8 ______

• Shadows created that alter the appearance of a heritage attribute or change the viability of a natural feature or plantings, such as a garden; • Isolation of a heritage attribute from its surrounding environment, context or significant relationship; • Direct or indirect obstruction of significant views or vistas within, from, or of built and natural features; • A change in land use such as rezoning a battlefield from open space to residential use, allowing new development or site alteration to fill in the formerly open spaces; and • Land disturbances such as a change in grade that alters soils, and drainage patterns that adversely affect an archaeological resource.

Of these negative impacts, 1) the destruction of any, or part of any, significant heritage attributes, 2) alterations that are not sympathetic, or are incompatible, with the historic fabric and appearance, and 3) the direct or indirect obstruction of significant views or vistas within, from, or of built and natural features are among the most common that can occur as a result of the construction, operation and decommissioning of renewable energy projects.

According to Subsections 23 (1) (a) (ii) and 23 (2) (a) of O. Reg. 359/09, all potential impacts to identified heritage resources at the project location, as well as Protected Properties that abut the parcel of land on which the project location is situated, must be evaluated. As mentioned above, ARA also evaluates impacts to identified heritage resources located on non-Protected abutting properties. A key factor in this evaluation process is the distance between the proposed project infrastructure (e.g. wind turbines, access roads, etc.) and the identified heritage resources. Unfortunately, no Standards and Guidelines have yet been provided by the MTCS to aid in the determination of minimal separation distances between design elements and heritage resources. Accordingly, all methodological attempts to make use of these quantitative data must rely primarily on subjective criteria and the opinion of qualified heritage professionals.

Through an analysis of the proximity (or lack therefore) of heritage resources to project infrastructure, the presence or absence of the major types of negative impacts outlined in InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (MCL 2006:3) can be determined. For identified CHLs, a similar approach can also be adopted. All types of CHLs must be considered, including small CHLs located within the study area (e.g. a small historic community) and larger CHLs which traverse the study area (e.g. a broad CHL made up of numerous communities or even townships).

If potential impacts on identified heritage resources with CHVI are recognized, then measures to avoid, eliminate or mitigate the impact must be proposed, as required by Subsection 20 (1) (a) (ii) of O. Reg. 359/09. InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans lists several methods of minimizing or avoiding a negative impact on an identified heritage resource (MCL 2006:4), including but not limited to:

• Alternative development approaches; • Isolating development and site alteration from significant built and natural features and vistas; • Design guidelines that harmonize mass, setback, setting, and materials; ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 9 ______

• Limiting height and density; • Allowing only compatible infill and additions; • Reversible alterations; • Buffer zones, site plan control, and other planning mechanisms.

In response to the above-mentioned requirements, this heritage assessment was designed with seven component parts: 1) a discussion of the local natural environment; 2) a summary of historical background research pertaining to the Township of Adelaide; 3) the identification of any Protected Properties within the study area; 4) the identification of potential BH resources and evaluation of each resource against the criteria set out in O. Reg. 9/06 to determine CHVI; 5) the identification of potential CHLs and evaluation of each resource against the criteria set out in O. Reg. 9/06 to determine CHVI; 6) an evaluation of potential project impacts on Protected Properties, BH resources and CHLs within the study area, if such resources are identified; and 7) a proposal of measures to avoid, eliminate or mitigate project impacts, if such impacts are identified.

This approach is supported by the guidelines and policies provided by the following:

• Ontario Regulation 359/09 made under the Environmental Protection Act; • Ontario Regulation 9/06 made under the Ontario Heritage Act; • the Guidelines on the Man-Made Heritage Component of Environmental Assessments (MCL 1980); • The Guideline for Preparing the Cultural Heritage Resource Component of Environmental Assessments (MCL 1992); and • The Ontario Heritage Tool Kit series (MCL 2006).

4.0 NATURAL CONTEXT

Although a given potential heritage resource’s ‘natural’ setting does not directly factor into the evaluation of its CHVI, it is widely accepted that local environmental factors played an important role in shaping all early land-use processes. In essence, these factors set out the initial conditions from which all cultural landscapes form and develop, across the entire historical and cultural spectrum of Ontario. Since the relationship between a potential heritage resource and its role in the cultural landscape figures prominently in the evaluation process, particularly with respect to gauging contextual value, a brief consideration of such ‘natural’ factors is warranted. In order to fully comprehend the heritage context of the vicinity of the study area, the following five features of the local natural environment must be considered: 1) forests; 2) drainage systems; 3) climatic conditions; 4) physiography; and 5) soil types.

The study area lies within the deciduous forest region, an ecological zone described as having the most diverse forest life in Ontario. The region is characterized by a wide range of tree and shrub species, including eastern white pine, red pine, eastern hemlock, white cedar, yellow birch, sugar and red maple, basswood, red oak, black walnut, butternut, tulip, magnolia, black gum, and many types of oaks and hickories. A number of rare species of mammals, birds, plants and insects reside in the deciduous forest, including sassafras and tulip trees, southern flying squirrels, and ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 10 ______

red-bellied woodpeckers. Today, over 90% of Ontario’s population lives in this small region. Relatively little of the original forest cover remains standing today, however, as early Euro- Canadian agriculturalists conducted large-scale clearing operations to prepare the land for cultivation—only scattered woodlots remain in areas that are otherwise too poor for agriculture (MNR 2012).

In terms of local drainage systems, the western part of the study area falls within the Brown Creek watershed, while the eastern part falls within the Upper Sydenham watershed. The Brown Creek watershed covers roughly 15,500 ha and consists of Brown Creek, Hardy Creek and Hair Creek. The Upper Sydenham watershed encompasses an area of 22,900 ha and includes Campbell Creek, Spring Creek, Dortmans Creek and part of the Sydenham River (SCRCA 2012). A minor tributary of the Sydenham River traverses the southeastern part of the eastern participating property, and a grassed waterway draining into Hardy Creek traverses the northern part of the western participating property. The Sydenham River is located roughly 5.0 km to the southeast, and Hardy Creek flows approximately 3.0 km to the west.

The local climatic region is that of the Lake Erie Counties, which is located southwest of the South Slopes region and north of the Lake Erie shoreline. In general, this area experiences average daily minimum temperatures of between -8 °C and -9 °C in January and average daily maximum temperatures of between 27 °C and 28 °C in July. The frost-free period ranges from 150 to 155 days in length, with the latest spring frost occurring between May 8 and May 12. The mean annual precipitation level for the region varies between 840 and 910 mm, with anywhere from 360 to 400 mm falling during the growing season (Hagerty and Kingston 1992:16). On the whole, this climate would have been ideal for the common grain and forage crops grown during the Euro-Canadian period.

Physiographically, the study area lies in the region known as the Ekfrid Clay Plain, which is located southwest of the Caradoc Sand Plain and northeast of the Bothwell Sand Plain. The plain comprises stratified clays, and the surface is nearly level save for those areas cut by the Thames and Sydenham Rivers. Knolls or low ridges of sand and gravel are superimposed on the clay in several areas, and the clay beds are thinnest between the Thames River and St. Thomas (Chapman and Putnam 1984:146–147). These physiographic elements have accumulated over grey shale and limestone bedrock belonging to the Middle Devonian Hamilton Group formation (Davidson 1989:42).

The study area consists primarily of Brantford soils, although Huron soils are present in the northernmost parts of the two participating properties. Eroded channels cut by small streams also traverse the southeastern corner of the easternmost participating property. Brantford soils occur throughout the ROW corridors along Napperton Drive and Kerwood Road, although Brant soils can be found south of Kerwood. Brantford soils are moderately well-drained and consist of silty clay loam and silty clay glaciolacustrine material. Huron soils, which are likewise moderately well-drained, comprise silty clay loam, silty clay, and occasionally clay loam glacial till. Brant soils are well- to imperfectly drained, and consist of silt loam, very sandy loam and loam glaciolacustrine material (Hagerty and Kingston 1992:Sheets 1–2). Such soils would have been well-suited to the mixed agriculture practised by Euro-Canadian populations, and formed the foundation upon which the local cultural landscape developed.

In summary, the study area possesses a number of characteristics which would have made it particularly attractive to early Euro-Canadian populations. The minor tributaries of the Sydenham River and Hardy Creek would have provided an adequate water supply, the deciduous forest would have attracted early industry, and the climate and topography would have allowed for the production of a range of general and specialized agricultural crops. Taken collectively, these factors would have positively influenced the development of local BH resources and CHLs.

5.0 HISTORICAL CONTEXT

Although many CHLs have strong associations with Aboriginal communities, all of the heritage resources considered in this report can be associated with Post-Contact (rather than Pre-Contact) cultural developments. Accordingly, the history of the initial settlement and growth of Euro- Canadian communities in Middlesex County is of direct relevance to the present study, as opposed to that of the lengthy Pre-Contact period.

What follows is a historical summary of the region from the time of European contact through to the ‘modern era’ of the 20th century. This overview is not intended to be exhaustive, but is rather meant to effectively place the study area in its appropriate historical context and to better inform the heritage evaluation process.

5.1 European Contact

The first European to venture into what would become southern Ontario was Étienne Brûlé, who was sent by Samuel de Champlain in the summer of 1610 to accomplish three goals: 1) to consolidate an emerging friendship between the French and the First Nations, 2) to learn their languages, and 3) to better understand their unfamiliar customs. Other Europeans would subsequently be sent by the French to train as interpreters. These men became coureurs de bois, “living Indian-style ... on the margins of French society” (Gervais 2004:182). Such ‘woodsmen’ played an essential role in all later communications with the First Nations.

Champlain himself made two trips to Ontario: in 1613, he journeyed up the Ottawa River searching for the North Sea, and in 1615, he travelled up the Mattawa River and descended to Lake Nipissing and Lake Huron to explore Huronia (Gervais 2004:182–185). He learned about many First Nations groups during his travels, including prominent Iroquoian-speaking peoples such as the Wendat (Huron), Petun (Tobacco) and ‘la nation neutre’ (the Neutrals), and many groups of the Algonkian-speaking Anishinabeg.

Champlain’s map of Nouvelle France from 1632 encapsulates his accumulated knowledge of the area (see Map 3). Although the distribution of the Great Lakes is clearly an abstraction, prolific Neutral village sites can be seen ‘west’ of Lac St. Louis (Lake Ontario).

Less than four decades after Champlain, a series of major events dramatically altered the cultural landscape of southwestern Ontario. These include the Five Nations invasion ca. 1650, the demise of the Neutral Nation, and the establishment of a vast Iroquoian hunting territory in the second half of the 17th century (Hunt 1940). Further change would take place ca. 1800, when northern Anishinabeg groups such as the Ojibway, Odawa and Potawatomi pressed into southern Ontario in an attempt to trade directly with the French and the English (Smith 1987:19). These groups took advantage of the competition between the English and French over the fur trade, and were consequently well-supplied with European goods. The Mississaugas, members of the Ojibway Nation who settled north and west of Lake Ontario, traded primarily with the French and received “everything from buttons, shirts, ribbons to combs, knives, looking glasses, and axes” (Smith 1987:22).

Historical maps from the first half of the 18th century shed valuable light on the contemporary cultural landscape. H. Popple’s A Map of the British Empire in America (1733), for example, does not show any prominent settlements in the vicinity of the study area, which is a result of the ephemeral environmental impact of the mobile Ojibway (see Map 4). Interestingly, this map demonstrates that the area of the Thames River was poorly documented at that time, especially in comparison to the Lake St. Clair and Detroit River areas. D. and G. Robert de Vaugondy’s Nouvelle France ou le Canada (1755) depicts the Thames River with more accuracy, indicating that European understanding of the interior had increased substantially in the interim (see Map 5).

The late 17th and early 18th centuries bore witness to the continued growth and spread of the fur trade across all of what would become the Province of Ontario. The French, for example, established and maintained trading posts along the Upper Great Lakes, offering enticements to attract fur traders from the First Nations. Even further north, Britain’s Hudson Bay Company dominated the fur trade. Violence was common between the two parties, and peace was only achieved with the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 (Ray 2012). Developments such as these resulted in an ever-increasing level of contact between European traders and local Aboriginal communities.

As the number of European men living in Ontario increased, so too did the frequency of their relations with Aboriginal women. Male employees and former employees of French and British companies began to establish families with these women, a process which resulted in the ethnogenesis of a distinct Aboriginal people: the Métis. Comprised of the descendants of those born from such relations (and subsequent intermarriage), the Métis emerged as a distinct Aboriginal people during the 1700s (MNO 2011).

Métis settlements developed along freighting waterways and watersheds, and were tightly linked to the spread and growth of the fur trade. These settlements were part of larger regional communities, connected by “the highly mobile lifestyle of the Métis, the fur trade network, seasonal rounds, extensive kinship connections and a shared collective history and identity” (MNO 2011).

In 1754, hostilities over trade and the territorial ambitions of the French and the British led to the Seven Years’ War (often called the French and Indian War in North America), in which many Anishinabeg bands fought on behalf of the French. After the French surrender in 1760, these bands adapted their trading relationships accordingly, and formed a new alliance with the British (Smith 1987:22). In addition to cementing British control over the Province of Quebec, the Crown’s victory over the French also proved pivotal in catalyzing the Euro-Canadian settlement process. The resulting population influx caused the demographics of many areas to change considerably.

R. Sayer and J. Bennett’s General Map of the Middle British Colonies in America from 1776 provides an excellent view of the ethnic landscape of southern Ontario prior to the widespread arrival of European settlers. This map clearly depicts the Thames River (‘the Long River without Falls’), the settlements of Mississaugas, Potawatomis and Ottawas near Lake St. Clair, and the virtually untouched lands of southern Ontario (see Map 6).

5.2 British Colonialism

With the establishment of absolute British control came a new era of land acquisition and organized settlement. In the Royal Proclamation of 1763, which followed the Treaty of Paris, the British government recognized the title of the First Nations to the land they occupied. In essence, the ‘right of soil’ had to be purchased by the Crown prior to European settlement (Lajeunesse 1960:cix). Numerous treaties and land surrenders were accordingly arranged by the Crown, and great swaths of territory were acquired from the Ojibway and other First Nations. These first purchases established a pattern “for the subsequent extinction of Indian title” (Gentilcore and Head 1984:78).

The first land purchases in Ontario took place along the shores of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, as well as in the immediate ‘back country’. Such acquisitions began in August 1764, when a strip of land along the Niagara River was surrendered by Six Nations, Chippewa and Mississauga chiefs (NRC 2010a). Although many similar territories were purchased by the Crown in subsequent years, it was only with the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783) that the British began to feel a pressing need for additional land. In the aftermath of the conflict, waves of United Empire Loyalists came to settle in the Province of Quebec, driving the Crown to seek out property for those who had been displaced. This influx had the devastating side effect of sparking the slow death of the fur trade, which was a primary source of income for many First Nations groups.

______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 16 ______

By the mid-1780s, the British recognized the need to 1) secure a military communication route from Lake Ontario to Lake Huron other than the vulnerable passage through Niagara, Lake Erie and Lake St. Clair; 2) acquire additional land for the United Empire Loyalists; and 3) modify the administrative structure of the Province of Quebec to accommodate future growth. The first two concerns were addressed through the negotiation of numerous ‘land surrenders’ with Anishinabeg groups north and west of Lake Ontario, and the third concern was mitigated by the establishment of the first administrative districts in the Province of Quebec.

On July 24, 1788, Sir Guy Carleton, Baron of Dorchester and Governor-General of British North America, divided the Province of Quebec into the administrative districts of Hesse, Nassau, Mecklenburg and Lunenburg (Archives of Ontario 2009). The vicinity of the study area fell within the district of Hesse at this time, which consisted of a massive tract of land encompassing all of the western and inland parts of the province extending due north from the tip of Long Point on Lake Erie in the east. According to early historians, “this division was purely conventional and nominal, as the country was sparsely inhabited … the necessity for minute and accurate boundary lines had not become pressing” (Mulvany et al. 1885:13).

Further change came in December 1791, when the Parliament of Great Britain’s Constitutional Act created the Provinces of Upper Canada and Lower Canada from the former Province of Quebec. Colonel John Graves Simcoe was appointed as Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada, and he became responsible for governing the new province, directing its settlement and establishing a constitutional government modelled after that of Britain (Coyne 1895:33).

Simcoe initiated several schemes to populate and protect the newly-created province, employing a settlement strategy that relied on the creation of shoreline communities with effective transportation links between them. These communities, inevitably, would be composed of lands obtained from the First Nations, and many more purchases were subsequently arranged. In July 1792, Simcoe divided the province into 19 counties consisting of previously-settled lands, new lands open for settlement and lands not yet acquired by the Crown. These new counties stretched from Essex in the west to Glengarry in the east. Three months later, in October 1792, an Act of Parliament was passed whereby the four districts established by Lord Dorchester were renamed as the Western, Home, Midland and Eastern Districts (Archives of Ontario 2009).

The vicinity of the study area nominally fell within the boundaries of Kent County at this time, which comprised all of the territory of Upper Canada that was not included in the other 18 counties (Archives of Ontario 2009). In essence, Kent was the largest county ever created, stretching from Lake Erie to Hudson’s Bay (McGeorge 1939:36). This arrangement would not last, however, and the ‘northern’ parts of Kent County would soon be sectioned off to form separate counties. D.W. Smyth’s A Map of the Province of Upper Canada (1800) clearly shows the layout of the earliest townships north of Lake Ontario, and demonstrates that the vicinity of the study area remained largely untouched by early British colonialism (see Map 7).

5.3 Middlesex County

Shortly after the creation of Upper Canada, the original arrangement of the province’s districts and counties was deemed inadequate. As population levels increased, smaller administrative bodies became desirable, resulting in the division of the largest units into more ‘manageable’ component parts. The first major changes in the southwest took place in 1798, when an Act of Parliament called for the realignment of the Home and Western Districts and the formation of the London and Niagara Districts. Many new counties and townships were subsequently created (Archives of Ontario 2009).

The vicinity of the study area nominally became part of the London District at this time, but the bulk of settlement occurred in the previously-surveyed townships to the south and southeast. In these areas substantial communities had already developed, as well as preliminary infrastructure. Dundas Street connected London and York, for example, and the Talbot Road linked the inland townships to those along the shore of Lake Erie (ATHG 2001:1). J. Purdy’s A Map of Cabotia (1814) provides an excellent view of Middlesex, Oxford and Norfolk Counties during these early years (see Map 8).

Middlesex County initially comprised the Townships of Aldborough, Dunwich, Southwold, Yarmouth, Malahide, Bayham, Delaware, Westminster, Dorchester and London. This arrangement lasted for the majority of the early 19th century, and the county was unaffected by the creation of the Gore District from parts of the Home and Niagara Districts in 1816 (Archives of Ontario 2009).

Between 1815 and 1824, heavy immigration from the Old World resulted in the doubling of the non-Aboriginal population of Upper Canada from 75,000 to 150,000. This dramatic increase was a result of the outcome of the War of 1812 and the Crown’s efforts to populate the province’s interior. A total of six major land-cession agreements were then pursued, which would yield nearly 3,000,000 ha of lands for Euro-Canadian settlement (Surtees 1994:112).

In October 1818, John Askin, Superintendent of Indian Affairs at Amherstburg, was sent to the Thames River area between London and Chatham in order to arrange for the purchase of a large tract of land to the north. Askin met with the chiefs of the Ojibway bands of the Chenal Ecarté, the St. Clair River, Bear Creek, the Sable River and the Thames River, and began negotiations for lands on the Thames River and on Lake Huron just north of the Sable River, extending inland as far as the Grand River Tract. The Ojibway leaders agreed to sell the land, and stipulated that 1) six reserves be set aside for them and that 2) a blacksmith and farm instructor be stationed near the reserves (Surtees 1994:117).

Based on Askin’s report, the government decided to purchase the subject tract through two agreements: the ‘Long Woods Purchase’ and the ‘Huron Tract Purchase’. The Long Woods area interested the Crown the most, as it was immediately north of the Thames River and was the next logical destination for Euro-Canadian settlers. Askin met with the Ojibway in 1819, and a provisional agreement was created which involved the surrender of 210,000 ha in exchange for an annuity of 600 pounds in currency and goods. The Huron Tract provisional agreement was also negotiated that same year, in which over 1,000,000 ha were to be sold for an annuity of 1,375 pounds in currency and goods (Surtees 1994:117–118). ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 19 ______

Neither agreement was executed, however, as objections over the nature of the cash payments led to the revision of both proposals. The Long Woods Purchase was finally completed on November 28, 1822, and almost 552,190 ha were exchanged for 600 pounds in currency (NRC 2010a). Specifically, a per capita payment of 2 pounds 10 shillings was agreed upon, to a maximum of 240 persons (Surtees 1994:118). The Huron Tract Purchase took longer to settle, and it was not pursued in earnest until John Galt’s Canada Company began to materialize. This purchase was completed on July 10, 1827 for 1,375 pounds in currency (NRC 2010a).

In 1821, prior to the formal completion of the Long Woods Purchase, the London District was enlarged through the addition of new townships in the northwest (Lobo, Caradoc, Ekfrid and Mosa) and northeast (Nissouri and Zorra). In 1826, the district was slightly reduced when the easternmost Townships of Walpole and Rainham were transferred to the Haldimand District (Archives of Ontario 2009). The Village of London was formally laid out at this time (Smith 1846:99), but the area that would be the Township of Adelaide remained unincorporated.

In the late 1820s, the government realized that new roads were needed in the southwestern part of the province in order to accommodate increasing immigration from Great Britain and to supplement Dundas Street, the Talbot Road, the Huron Road and Yonge Street (ATHG 2001:3). In response to this need, the future Egremont Road was planned, running from east to west through the unsurveyed and unnamed Townships of Adelaide, Warwick and beyond. Peter Robinson, Commissioner of Crown Lands and Surveyor General of Woods, was dispatched to open up and sell these new lands, and Roswell Mount of Delaware was assigned as his agent for immigrants (ATHG 2001:3). Following the completion of surveys in October 1832, the Townships of Adelaide and Warwick were opened for settlement (see Map 9). In 1834, the Township of Adelaide was formally annexed to Middlesex County (Archives of Ontario 2009).

In 1837 and 1838, the layout of what would become southwestern Ontario was significantly altered through the creation of the Huron, Brock, Wellington, Talbot and Simcoe Districts (Archives of Ontario 2009). The London District came to consist solely of Middlesex County at this time, as Oxford County became part of the Brock District and Norfolk County became part of the Talbot District. In February 1841, all of these districts became part of Canada West in the new United Province of Canada.

By 1842, the population of Middlesex County had reached 31,350. The area developed at a great pace, and over the next two years roughly 7,290 ha (18,000 acres) were brought under cultivation. By 1844, the county’s agricultural lands amounted to 52,783 ha (130,329 acres), and there were 35 grist mills and 93 saw mills in operation (Smith 1846:99). Middlesex County was known for its many good roads at this time, including those to Brantford and Hamilton, Galt and Guelph, Goderich, Chatham, Port Sarnia and Port Stanley, the latter of which was planked and passed through St. Thomas (Smith 1846:99). In 1845, Middlesex County was slightly enlarged by the addition of the Township of Williams in the northeast.

Between 1846 and 1849, Middlesex County comprised the Townships of Adelaide, Aldborough, Bayham, Caradoc, Delaware, Dorchester, Dunwich, Ekfrid, Lobo, London, Metcalfe, Mosa, Malahide, Southwold, Westminster, Williams, Yarmouth and the Town of London (see Map 10). The Townships of Yarmouth, London, Westminster, Southwold and Malahide were the best settled, and on the whole the county contained many good farms with large clearings and expansive orchards (Smith 1846:99).

Following the abolishment of the district system in 1849, the counties of Canada West were reconfigured once again. The southern part of Middlesex County was reduced by the creation of Elgin County, but the Township of West Nissouri was added in the northeast (see Map 11). By the late 19th century, Middlesex County consisted of the Townships of Mosa, Ekfrid, Caradoc, Delaware, Westminster, North Dorchester, Metcalfe, Adelaide, Lobo, London, West Nissouri, West Williams, East Williams, McGillivray and Biddulph (see Map 12).

5.4 Township of Adelaide

In historic times, the Township of Adelaide was bounded by the Township of Williams to the north, the Township of Warwick to the west, the Townships of Metcalfe and Caradoc to the south and east, and the Township of Lobo to the northeast. Numerous waterways traversed this area, including tributaries of Hardy Creek in the southwest; tributaries of the Sydenham River in the southeast; tributaries of the Ausable River in the northwest; Adelaide Creek and its tributaries in the centre and north; and Mud Creek and its tributaries in the northeast (see Map 13). On the whole, the township was known for its excellent land and good farms (Smith 1846:1).

Unlike the remainder of Middlesex County, the Township of Adelaide was settled relatively late in the Euro-Canadian period. Peter Robinson, who was given the task of opening up the northern parts of the Western and London Districts after the completion of the Long Woods Purchase, was instrumental in this settlement process. The principal artery for settlement was to be the Egremont Road, and after much planning and the occasional discussion with Colonel Talbot, Robinson sent Peter Carroll to survey the area (ATHG 2001:4).

Map 13: Map of the Township of Adelaide from H.R. Page & Co.’s Illustrated Historical Atlas of Middlesex County, Ontario (1878) (McGill University 2001)

Carroll first explored the area in June 1831, and was accompanied by militia captain James Nevilles. The men started at Marvel White’s tavern on the Lobo-Caradoc townline and set out westerly into the forest. After several days of exploration, they identified the best route to Lake Huron. The survey began in July 1831, and Carroll followed a routine in which he blazed the line for the road across six to eight lots on one day, and then established the road line between Concessions 2 and 3 to the south on the next day. On the third day, the group repeated the procedure on the north side of the main road. Following this method, the roads through the Townships of AA (later Adelaide) and AB (later Warrick) were surveyed by the end of August, with three ties of lots on either side of the main road (ATHG 2001:5–6).

In the spring of 1832, Robinson sent Carroll back to the Townships of Adelaide, Warwick and Plympton to finalize the surveys and prepare the individual 100 acre lots for the coming population influx. Carroll finished the Township of Adelaide in July 1832, and completed the remaining surveys in October 1832. Interestingly, even while he was conducting the surveys, settlers began to converge on the new lots (ATHG 2001:6–7).

The first settlers in the Township of Adelaide included 1) a small group of wealthy gentlemen from Ireland who purchased several hundred acres of property; 2) roughly 400 settlers from southern England sent out by the Petworth Emigration Society; 3) discharged soldiers from Great Britain who commuted their pensions for cash to purchase land; and 4) sons and daughters of United Empire Loyalists who received free grants of land (ATHG 2001:7).

The ‘Irish Gentlemen’ included William and Thomas Radcliff, who arrived with their wives and each purchased 400 acres along the Main Road adjacent to the Town Plot of Adelaide, and Dr. Thomas Phillips, who was granted a lot within the Town Plot. Dr. Phillip’s house was the first to be built in the township, and it consisted of a main floor, a room downstairs and a room upstairs (ATHG 2001:8).

These wealthy landowners formed a stark contrast to the poor settlers that arrived from southern England around the same time. The travel expenses for these newcomers were supplemented by the Petworth Emigration Society and by George Wyndham, Third Earl of Egremont, as part of an emigration scheme designed to relieve population pressure, unemployment and poverty in England. The new arrivals included the Bakers, Carvers, Coopers, Downers, Goatchers, Hasletts, Hasted, Hiltons, Hoares, Humphries, Joiners, Knights, Manns, Nappers, Pannells, Parkers, Pays, Philipses, Pulboroughs, Pullens, Randalls, Rapleys, Thomases, Vineys and Whites ( AT H G 2001:8–12).

The two remaining groups comprised army pensioners and Loyalist descendants. Settling the pensioners was very problematic for Roswell Mount, particularly when nearly 1,000 of them arrived at Port Stanley in August in the midst of a cholera outbreak. He could not find anyone to shelter the new arrivals, and had to pay to transport them to their destinations by renting wagons. Over 130 ‘military land grants’ were made for properties in the Township of Adelaide (ATHG 2001:12–13). The Loyalist descendants who received grants between 1831 and 1838 included the Barkleys, Barnums, Connors, Cunninghams, Dells, Grens, Hicks, Hills, McLeans, Millers, Ryersons, Stovers, Van Everys, Willsons and Youngs (ATHG 2001:20).

The new population set about clearing the dense forest, and Roswell Mount assigned surveyors to direct them and experienced woodsmen to train them. Mount also assisted in erecting houses prior to the onset of winter, and 250 log homes were built in the Townships of Adelaide and Warwick at a government expense of nearly 1,000 pounds (to be repaid by each settler once established). In October 1832, he settled accounts with 386 people who had been employed to open the roads, but still had to issue free rations to many families to sustain them over the winter (ATHG 2001:15).

Following the harsh winter, the Town Plot of Adelaide was surveyed and sales were held in March 1833. The lots were purchased by the Wilsons, Dillons, Hoares, Westlakes, Durands, Marrills, Robertsons, Neilsons, Clarks, Dickinsons, Harls and Wellwoods (ATHG 2001:15–17). In Mount’s report to Sir John Colborne in August 1833, he states that the population of Adelaide had reached 1,138 persons, but notes that hundreds had temporarily left to find paid employment in adjoining settlements. A total of 1,630 acres had been cleared by that time. Mount died in January 1834 (ATHG 2001:17–18).

By 1846, there were two saw mills and one grist mill in the township, roughly 32,272 acres had been taken up, and approximately 4,025 acres were under cultivation (Smith 1846:1). In 1851 the population of the township was 1,979 (ATHG 2001:27), and in 1888 it reached 2,963 (Goodspeed 1889:443). The principal settlements included Adelaide, Strathroy, Kerwood and Keyser, and smaller communities were located at Amiens, Crathie, Mullifarry and Napperton.

The central Village of Adelaide was the first to develop, and by 1851 it had a population of roughly 150. In 1856, the Grand Trunk Railway Line from London to Sarnia was built through Strathroy instead of Adelaide, as the rail company experienced difficulties in acquiring a right- of-way through the village. As a result, Adelaide began to decline, and a population shift ensued ( AT HG 2001:505). Strathroy, which had a population of 14 in 1840, grew to 3,000 by 1870 (see Map 14). Despite its decline, Adelaide still comprised several general stores, a saw mill, a hotel, several shoemakers, a blacksmith, a carpenter and a post office in the late 19th century (Goodspeed 1889:448).

Kerwood was founded during the construction of the railway in the late 1850s. William Kerr, a woodcutter, came to the area to cut timber to make ties for the line, and the settlement was accordingly named ‘Kerrwood’ (eventually becoming Kerwood). The land initially belonged to John McKenzie of Hamilton, who laid out the streets and lots of the settlement. By 1862, Kerwood was a thriving village of 50 persons, and plans were made for the construction of a railway station house. At that time, Kerwood consisted of a dozen houses, a post office, a general store, two hotels, a blacksmith shop, a boot and shoe store, and a carpenter shop

(ATHG 2001:511). By 1888, the village contained approximately 300 people, and had gained additional general stores, a saw mill, a brick- and tile-yard, a carriage and wagon shop, and a cheese factory (Goodspeed 1889:453). In 1925, the population of Kerwood was 250, and for the remainder of the 20th century the community continued to prosper (see Image 1).

Image 1: Aerial Photograph of the Village of Kerwood (1957) (ATGH 2001:516)

Historic Keyser, located in the northwestern part of the township, was a small hamlet that never reached the status of an incorporated village. Named after several different Keyser families who settled in the area in the 1830s, Keyser (or Keyser’s Corner) gained a post office in August 1864 (ATHG 2001:514). During the 1870s, Keyser was noted for its cheese factory and a brick- and tile-yard (Goodspeed 1889:454; ATHG 2001:515). The settlement’s population peaked at 200 in 1871, and subsequently declined to 60 in 1880 and 45 in 1891. The post office was closed in October 1913 (ATHG 2001:514).

The small communities of Amiens, Crathie, Mullifarry and Napperton were also of historical note in the Township of Adelaide. A summary of these settlements and their most prominent services, compiled from business directories of the towns and villages of Middlesex County by the Adelaide Township Heritage Group, appears in Table 1.

The modern Township of Adelaide Metcalfe was formed on January 1, 2001 through the amalgamation of the former Townships of Adelaide and Metcalfe. The 2011 census profile for Adelaide Metcalfe shows a population of 3,028 and a total of 1,064 private dwellings ( 2012).

5.5 Lots 8 and 10, Concession 4 SER

As discussed in Section 1.0, the participating properties are located on parts of Lots 8 and 10, Concession 4 SER in the Geographic Township of Adelaide. The remainder of the project location falls within three historic road allowances laid out between Lots 7–10, Concessions 4–5 SER and Lots 6–7, Concessions 5–6 SER. The layouts of these lots were established during the initial survey of the townships in the early 1830s, and the area was very well-settled for the majority of the Euro-Canadian era. In their current condition, the participating properties comprise agricultural lands with no associated farmsteads. Given that the participating properties encompass the majority of the proposed project location, as defined in Section 1 of O. Reg. 359/09, a more in-depth discussion of their historical context is warranted.

In an attempt to reconstruct the historic land use of this participating properties, ARA examined a historical map that documented past residents, structures (e.g. homes, businesses and public buildings) and features during the late 19th century. This map, published in Page & Co.’s Illustrated Atlas of the County of Middlesex, Ontario (1878), was of the most detailed scale available (60 chains to 1 inch). A georeferenced version of this historical map, showing the project location and the participating properties, appears in Map 15 (McGill University 2001).

This map indicates that every lot and concession in the vicinity of the study area was settled by 1878. The western 96 acres of Lot 8, Concession 4 SER was occupied by Robert Galbraith’s heirs, and the Galbraith homestead is depicted in the southern part of the parcel near Napperton Drive. The western 100 acres of Lot 10, Concession 4 SER was owned by William H. Earley (Early), and the Early homestead appears in the southeastern part of the parcel off of Napperton Drive (see Map 15). Few biographical details were included in the Illustrated Atlas for these individuals, although both appear to have had their mail delivered to the Kerwood post office (McGill University 2001).

In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of the historic land use of the two participating properties in the 19th century and the early 20th centuries, ARA consulted the land registry records for Lots 8 and 10, Concession 4 SER. These records indicate that both lots were consistently dealt with in two halves, and that each half was typically owned by a separate individual. The principal transactions associated with the western parts of Lots 8 and 10, Concession 4 SER appear in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively.

The full extent of Lot 8, Concession 4 SER (200 acres) was first patented to Adam West in 1837. In 1839, West sold the land to Samuel Munn, and Samuel Munn parted the property in 1857 and sold the western half to Robert Munn. Robert Munn mortgaged part of the property to William Johnston five months later, and the following month Thomas Irving received the mortgage through alienation. After a final order of foreclosure in 1861, Irving received the title to the 96 acre parcel. In 1862, Samuel Munn sold his small 4 acre parcel in the southwest to Matilda Munn, and this property changed hands numerous times after 1889. In 1864, the remaining 96 acres of the parcel were sold to Robert Galbraith, and in 1902 Galbraith’s widow (Mary Jane Patterson) sold the land to William Armstrong. In 1905, Armstrong sold the parcel to Albert Early, who retained possession until 1948 when the land was granted to Clarence Patterson. In 1978, Patterson granted the 96 acre parcel to Robert Patterson.

George Hamilton received the patent for Lot 10, Concession 4 SER (200 acres) in 1835. In 1845, Hamilton sold the parcel to Ronald McKinnon, and in 1847, McKinnon parted the lot and sold the western half (100 acres) to James Early. Early retained the full parcel until 1874, at which time the ‘western half of the western half’ (50 acres) was conveyed to Fawcett Early. In 1875, William Early acquired both the western and eastern 50 acre parcels, but in 1878 he deeded the eastern parcel to James Early. James Early willed this part back to William Early in 1879, and William deeded the land to John Morgan the following year. The ‘eastern half of the western half’ passed to Clara Morgan in 1895, Caroline Alexander in November 1906 and Ernest Early in December 1906. Ernest Early gained the western parcel in 1924, and became the owner of the ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd.

entire western half of Lot 10, Concession 4 SER (100 acres). In 1951, after Ernest Early’s death, his widow Catherine Early granted the eastern half to Robert Patterson and the western half to Clarence Patterson. In 1955, the western half passed to Robert Patterson as well, but in 1960 he granted the eastern half back to Clarence Patterson. In 1964, Robert Patterson granted the western half to Robert and Anne Cox.

6.0 HERITAGE ASSESSMENT

6.1 Identification of Protected Properties

In order to determine whether any of the property types listed in Section 19 of O. Reg. 359/09 were located within the limits of the study area (i.e. Protected Properties), ARA and Stantec Consulting Ltd. (lead consultant for the preparation of the REA application) engaged a number of heritage groups and investigated several online heritage resources. The former MTC’s Protected Properties, Archaeological and Heritage Resources: An Information Bulletin for Applicants Addressing the Cultural Heritage Component of Projects Subject to Ontario Regulation 359/09 Renewable Energy Approvals (2011) was consulted for guidance on this process. What follows is a summary of the results of these inquiries, all of which were factored into the subject heritage assessment.

The Table to Section 19 of O. Reg. 359/09 sets out eight possible types of Protected Properties, and REA applications must consider whether any such heritage resources will be impacted by the project. Appendices B and E in Protected Properties, Archaeological and Heritage Resources: An Information Bulletin for Applicants Addressing the Cultural Heritage Component of Projects Subject to Ontario Regulation 359/09 Renewable Energy Approvals (MTC 2011) provide checklists based on this Table, which can be effectively adapted into criteria for determining whether any Protected Properties are located within the study area (see Table 4).

In summary, only one Protected Property was identified within the study area: 27736 Kerwood Road (the Woods’ General Store). The original wooden structure that would become the Woods’ General Store was first built by one Mr. McKenzie in 1867. In 1907, Arthur and Anna Woods opened the business, and when Arthur died in 1937 it was taken over by his son, Fred. At this time, the business became known as Fred Woods’ Store, and some remodelling of the storefront took place. In 1949, the wooden structure was torn town and a more modern structure was erected in the Boomtown Front architectural style (see Image 2–Image 3). Fred’s widow Eileen became the owner of the store after Fred’s death in 1979, and their son Joe took over as manager. As of 2007, mother and son still work in the store (Middlesex Tourism 2012).

The Woods’ General Store boasts a variety of heritage attributes: it is one of the few remaining historic commercial buildings in Kerwood (Design or Physical Value); it is directly associated with the Woods’ family business (Historical or Associative Value); and it is referential to a time was Kerwood was a bustling community (Contextual Value). Designated as Protected Property No. 1 for the purpose of this assessment, the Woods’ General Store is located on an abutting property (see Map 16), and therefore requires an evaluation of potential project impacts in accordance with Section 23 (Heritage Assessment) of O. Reg. 359/09 (see Section 7.1). ______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 35 ______

6.2 Inventory of Potential BH Resources

Over the course of ARA’s engagement with local heritage groups, inquiries were also made as to whether any properties of potential heritage value had been previously-identified in the vicinity of the study area. Middlesex County could only provide information pertaining to properties listed in the Middlesex Heritage Trail and other online sources (Middlesex Tourism 2012), and the Township of Adelaide Metcalfe indicated that Crathie Hall was the only structure of note in the area (also listed in the Middlesex Heritage Trail).

A preliminary inventory of properties with potential BH resources was then compiled, which incorporated the results of ARA’s background research as well as modern satellite imagery. A list of candidate properties was generated for the field survey, including several properties containing buildings potentially depicted in Page & Co.’s Illustrated Atlas of the County of Middlesex, Ontario (1878).

The field survey was conducted on December 2, 2011 and January 18, 2012 in order to photograph and document these properties with potential BH resources as well any additional candidate properties that were previously unrecognized. As a result, a total of 36 properties with potential BH resources were recognized, comprising residential homes, churches and farmsteads. Each of these properties was assigned a unique identification number (Potential Heritage Resource Nos. 1–36), beginning with the dense concentration of structures in the unincorporated community of Kerwood and radiating outwards to the limits of the study area (see Map 17). In accordance with the methodology set out in Section 3.2, all of these potential resources were then evaluated for CHVI.

6.3 Evaluation of Potential BH Resources

All of the 36 properties with potential BH resources documented during the assessment are located on abutting properties. These potential heritage resources were then evaluated against the criteria in O. Reg. 9/06. A standardized checklist based on these criteria was created to aid in the evaluation process and was used to judge whether a given resource possessed Design or Physical Va lue, H ist orical or Associative Value, or Contextual Value. Although previously discussed in Section 3.2, these pivotal terms can be summarized as follows:

• Design or Physical Value manifests when a feature is a rare, unique, representative or early example of a style, type, expression, material or construction method; when it displays a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic value; or when it displays a high degree of technical or scientific achievement; • Historical or Associative Value appears when a resource has direct associations with a theme, event, belief, person, activity, organization or institution that is significant to the community; yields or has the potential to yield information that contributes to the understanding of a community or culture; or demonstrates or reflects work or ideas of an architect, builder, artist, designer or theorist who is significant to the community; • Contextual Value is implied when a feature is important in defining, maintaining or supporting the character of an area; is physically, functionally, visually or historically linked to its surroundings; or is a landmark.

The results of the evaluation of Potential Heritage Resource Nos. 1–36 against the standardized checklist are presented in Appendix B, and a synthesis of these results appears in Table 5. The individual forms comprising Appendix B also include the location, description and photographic documentation of each candidate potential heritage resource. The assessment determined that 27 of the 36 resources with the potential for CHVI met one or more of the established criteria. Accordingly, these can now be classified as properties with identified BH resources (Heritage Resource Nos. 1, 5, 6, 8–18, 20–21, 23–30 and 32–34). Potential Heritage Resource Nos. 2–4, 7, 19, 22, 31 and 35–36 did not meet any of the criteria set out in O. Reg. 9/06, and therefore have no CHVI. The locations of the identified heritage resources appear in Map 18.

According to the results of the CHVI evaluation, Heritage Resource Nos. 1, 5, 6, 8–18, 20–21, 23–30 and 32–34 each possess one or more heritage attributes. In general, heritage attributes can be understood as the “principal features, characteristics, context and appearance that contribute to the cultural heritage significance” of a given heritage resource (MMAH 2005:31). These heritage attributes are the essential elements of each heritage resource, and accordingly must be articulated prior to the evaluation of potential project impacts. A summary of the heritage attributes of the properties with identified BH resources appears in Table 6.

6.4 Inventory of Potential CHLs

Using a method similar to that employed in the identification of properties with potential BH resources in the vicinity of the project location (see Section 6.2), ARA also generated an inventory of potential CHLs prior to the field survey. This inventory was informed by the results of the background research, including the late 19th century landscape depicted in Page & Co.’s Illustrated Atlas of the County of Middlesex, Ontario (1878), although modern satellite imagery was also consulted.

One potential CHL was identified in the vicinity of the study area, centered on the unincorporated community of Kerwood (see Map 19). As noted in Section 5.4, the occupation of Kerwood began in the mid-19th century, and the settlement was one of the principal communities in the historic Township of Adelaide. This locality was documented during the field survey, and the remainder of the study area was inspected for additional candidate CHLs. No other potential CHLs were identified during the field survey.

6.5 Evaluation of Potential CHLs

The standardized checklist employed in Section 6.3 for evaluating properties with potential BH resources was implemented to aid in the evaluation of Kerwood as a CHL, as were additional guiding perspectives provided in the evaluation process developed for the Regional Municipality of Waterloo (Scheinman 2006). This method is based on current practice standards and is similar to the procedure used by Infrastructure Ontario, the MTCS, the City of London and the Town of Caledon. These, in turn, rely on CHL identification methods that are essentially modifications of the seminal model developed and adopted by the U.S. National Parks Service (Scheinman 2006:10). The US National Parks Service model can be found in its entirety in National Register Bulletin #30 ‘Guidelines for Evaluating and Documenting Rural Historic Landscapes’ (McClelland, Keller, Keller and Melnick 1999). These additional guiding perspectives allow for greater specificity and accuracy in studying potential CHLs.

The results of the evaluation of Kerwood against the criteria set out in O. Reg. 9/06 can be found Table 7. Based on the results of this evaluation, this location can be classified as an identified CHL. The heritage attributes of Kerwood are summarized in Table 8. As an identified CHL, Kerwood warrants an evaluation of impacts as described in Subsection 23 (1) (a) (ii) of O. Reg. 359/09.

7.0 EVALUATION OF IMPACTS

According to Section 23 (Heritage Assessment) of O. Reg. 359/09, an impact evaluation must be applied to any identified heritage resources that are identified at the project location and to any Protected Properties that abut the parcel of land on which the project is located. As mentioned in Section 3.2, ARA considers a larger study area as part of its business practice, and evaluates identified heritage resources located on the participating property/properties and on all abutting properties. The evaluation of impacts to the Protected Property, the identified properties with BH resources and the identified CHL appear in Sections 7.1–7.3.

As discussed in Section 3.2, impacts can be classified as either direct or indirect impacts. Direct impacts include, but are not limited to, those that physically affect the heritage resources themselves. These can be caused by initial project staging, excavation/levelling operations, construction of access roads, preparation of turbine pads, installation of underground lines, maintenance and repairs over the life of the project, and the final decommissioning of the facility. Indirect impacts include, but are not limited to, alterations that are not compatible with the historic fabric and appearance of the area, the creation of shadows that alter the appearance of an identified heritage attribute, the isolation of a heritage attribute from its surrounding environment, the obstruction of significant views and vistas, and other less-tangible impacts.

A key factor in this evaluation process is the distance between the project location (specifically the proposed project infrastructure) and the heritage resources with CHVI. As stated previously, however, no Standards and Guidelines have yet been provided by the MTCS to aid in the determination of minimal separation distances between design elements and heritage resources. Accordingly, all methodological attempts to make use of this quantitative data must rely primarily on subjective criteria and the opinion of qualified heritage professionals.

______April 2012 Archaeological Research Associates Ltd. Project #HR-019-2012 Heritage Assessment Report, Napier Wind Project, Township of Adelaide Metcalfe 48 ______

Through an analysis of the proximity (or lack therefore) of Protected Properties and identified heritage resources to proposed project infrastructure, the presence or absence of the types of impacts outlined in InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (2006:3) can be determined. Should impacts be identified, recommendations to avoid, eliminate or mitigate each impact are required by Subsection 23 (1) (a) (ii) of O. Reg. 359/09.

7.1 Impact Evaluation of the Protected Property

As mentioned in Section 6.1, one Protected Property was identified on an abutting property within the study area: 27736 Kerwood Road (the Woods’ General Store). This Protected Property is at least 1,978 m away from the proposed turbines, at least 28 m away from the proposed feeder line, at least 1,404 m away from the proposed collector lines, and at least 1,368 m away from the proposed access roads. These data are essential for the accurate identification of direct and indirect impacts.

As discussed in Section 3.2, the definitions of negative impacts presented in InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (MCL 2006:3) can be effectively adapted into criteria for identifying both direct and indirect of impacts. The results of this evaluation of impacts to the Protected Property identified within the study area are summarized in Table 9.

As Table 9 summarizes, the Protected Property identified on the abutting lands will not be negatively impacted by the Napier Wind Project.

7.2 Impact Evaluation of Identified BH Resources

The evaluation of the 36 properties with potential BH resources determined that 27 of said properties possess CHVI (Heritage Resource Nos. 1, 5, 6, 8–18, 20–21, 23–30 and 32–34). All of the identified BH resources are located on abutting properties. The proximity of proposed project infrastructure to each of these identified heritage resources appears in Table 10.

As Table 10 demonstrates, these resources are at least 635 m away from the proposed turbines (Heritage Resource No. 26), at least 10 m away from the proposed feeder line (Heritage Resource Nos. 9 and 11), at least 12 m away from the proposed collector lines (Heritage Resource No. 23), and at least 23 m away from the proposed access roads (Heritage Resource No. 23). These data are essential for the accurate identification of direct and indirect impacts.

As discussed in Section 3.2, the definitions of negative impacts presented in InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (MCL 2006:3) can be effectively adapted into criteria for identifying both of types of impacts.

7.3 Impact Evaluation of Identified CHL

As mentioned in Section 6.5, the unincorporated community of Kerwood was identified as a CHL. This community is located at least 1,757 m southwest of the proposed turbines, at least 1,163 m southwest of the proposed collector lines, and at least 1,102 m southwest of the proposed access roads. The corridor for the feeder line, however, extends along the ROW for Kerwood Drive and traverses the full extent of the CHL.

As discussed in Section 3.2, the definitions of negative impacts presented in InfoSheet #5: Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans (MCL 2006:3) can be effectively adapted into criteria for identifying both direct and indirect impacts.

8.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The heritage assessment for the Napier Wind Project encompassed a study area consisting of the proposed project location, the participating properties, and all abutting/adjacent properties. One Protected Property was identified on an abutting property (the Woods’ General Store, Protected Property No. 1), 36 properties with potential BH resources were recognized (Potential Heritage Resource Nos. 1–36), and one potential CHL was found within the study area (the unincorporated community of Kerwood).

All of the potential heritage resources were tested against the criteria of O. Reg. 9/06. The results of the evaluation demonstrated that 27 of the 36 properties with potential BH resources have CHVI, including Heritage Resource Nos. 1, 5, 6, 8–18, 20–21, 23–30 and 32–34. The potential CHL of Kerwood was also found to have CHVI, meeting several of the criteria established in O. Reg. 9/06. All of the identified heritage resources and the Protected Property were then evaluated for potential project impacts.

The results of the evaluation of impacts to the Protected Property, the 27 properties with identified BH resources, and the identified CHL can be summarized as follows:

• The Protected Property (27736 Kerwood Road, the Woods’ General Store) is located at least 1,978 m away from the proposed turbines, at least 28 m away from the proposed feeder line, at least 1,404 m away from the proposed collector lines, and at least 1,368 m away from the proposed access roads. After the project impact analysis, no direct or indirect impacts were identified that would negatively affect any of the heritage attributes of this Protected Property. • All 27 of the properties with identified BH resources are abutting properties (Heritage Resource Nos. 1, 5, 6, 8–18, 20–21, 23–30 and 32–34). These resources are at least 635 m away from the proposed turbines, at least 10 m away from the proposed feeder line, at least 12 m away from the proposed collector lines, and at least 23 m away from the proposed access roads. After the project impact analysis, no direct or indirect impacts were identified that would negatively affect any of the heritage attributes of these resources. • The CHL of Kerwood is located at least 1,757 m southwest of the proposed turbines, at least 1,163 m southwest of the proposed collector lines, and at least 1,102 m southwest of the proposed access roads. The corridor for the feeder line, however, extends along the ROW for Kerwood Drive and traverses the full extent of the CHL. After the project impact analysis, no direct or indirect impacts were identified that would negatively affect any of the heritage attributes of Kerwood. The proposed feeder line will join the network of electrical wiring that already defines this area.

Given that this study has 1) identified one Protected Property within the study area; 2) documented all potential BH resources and CHLs on the participating and abutting properties; 3) identified multiple heritage resources with CHVI based on the criteria in O. Reg. 9/06; 4) evaluated all potential direct and indirect impacts to the Protected Property and all of the identified heritage resources; and 5) found that the project will not negatively impact any of these resources, ARA recommends that the Napier Wind Project be released from further heritage
