  • Of Iron and Ozone: the History of the American Summer Colony in Cobourg, Ontario Marsha Ann Tate Bookend Seminar, October 17, 2012
    Of Iron and Ozone: The History of the American Summer Colony in Cobourg, Ontario Marsha Ann Tate Bookend Seminar, October 17, 2012 Marsha Ann Tate is Instructor of Communication at Juniata College. n the decades following the U.S. Civil War, a group of industrialists from Huntingdon County, I Pennsylvania, and its environs played a central role in transforming Cobourg, Ontario, a community nestled on Lake Ontario’s northern shore, into a renowned North American resort. Cobourg’s historical importance, however, is not only owed to the number of summer vacationers it attracted from throughout the United States during the late 1800s and early 1900s, but also to their unique character. For example, counted among Cobourg’s seasonal residents were, among others: (a) the wives of Ulysses S. Grant and Jefferson Davis; (b) countless veterans of the Union and Confederate Armies; (c) high-ranking federal and state government officials, including cabinet officers, U.S. Senators, and Supreme Court Justices; (d) wealthy businesspeople; (e) actors and musicians; as well as (f) working-class families. Based upon a decade-long research project, “Of Iron and Ozone” traces the development of Cobourg as a resort community, with an emphasis upon the multifaceted socioeconomic relationships that evolved among the varied individuals who summered there. SETTING THE STAGE Cobourg, located on Lake Ontario’s northern shore across from Rochester, New York, possesses unpretentious beginnings. Although naturally endowed with moderate summer temperatures, refreshing

  • Woolen Mill Matting Factory
    FACTORIES ON FACTORY CREEK ONTARIO WOOLEN MILLS Percy Climo, one of the area's prolific historians, tells us that as early as 1797 there was settlement at the Tremaine Street area of Factory Creek. "From later deeds and other information we know that our settler (Elias Jones) located his house to the west of the creek estuary, on rising ground and a short distance from the lake bank...His overland lane, northward to the Indian Trail, now King Street, later became Tremaine Street." Factory Creek, also known as Cobourg Creek, has claimed other names too: Jones Creek, Harris Creek, Henry’s Creek. Each name referred to a land owner, or his mill which used the flow of the creek’s water to turn the wheels that powered the saws and millstones. As early as 1820 one Robert Henry had built a grist mill on the southeast corner of King and Tremaine Streets. Various owners took over until 1843 when Captain Patrick Wallace and his nephews, the Mackechnie brothers, built a woolen mill there. At that time the Ontario Woolen Mills was the largest woolen mill in British North America. The Cobourg Star of January 21, 1846 was swept away with enthusiasm for the new mill. Altogether the Ontario Mills Woolen Factory is a most pleasant spectacle to look upon for all who feel an interest in the progressing advancement of Canada as a dependency of the British Crown, and... we entertain no doubt of its future and rapid prosperity. The reporter goes on to describe the layout of the 4 1/2 story brick building in detail.

  • Notes Cobourg's History Important
    • Important Notes In Cobourg's History First Mayor of Cobourg 1837 COBOURG 1937 (F'or much of the information to be found 'in the jollowing historical sketch of the Town of Cobourg, we are indebted to the Cobourg Selltinel-Star, and Edwin C. Guillet, Jlf.A.) To obtain an accurate impression of the appearance of Cobourg at the time of the first settlement of the district one need only look at the cedar swamps and thickets to the east and west of the present town. The various creeks which enter the lake in the vicinity of Cobourg were much larger in the pioneer period and at times a considerable amount of the land was under water. According to Mr. Edwin C. Guillet, M.A., in the Sentinel-Star, July 22, 1937, the first deed in the township of Hamilton seems to have been granted to Joseph Ash in 1798, but he was located to the east of the present town near the Kingston Road railway crossings. Gull Light Tower in 1840 - At that time, there was not even a trail through the woods and the lake shore formed the only highway. Between 1799 and 1801, however, Asa Danforth, American road builder, blazed a trail through the woods from Kingston to Ancaster at the head of Lake Ontario, but until 1817 when the Kingston Road was re- surveyed and re-opened, the trail was hardly fit for travel of any kind. In 1798, a Loyalist Eliud Nickerson built a rude log hut on the shores of the creek which still runs Above is a picture of the Gull Rock Lighthouse situated half way be- tween Port Hope and Cobourg.

  • ROTARY CLUB of COBOURG
    ROTARY CLUB of COBOURG A History 1921 - 2001 The Rotary Club of Cobourg held its first meeting on Friday night August 12, 1921 at the Arlington Hotel. A large number of Rotarians from Toronto, Montreal, Belleville, Peterborough and other places gathered to initiate a number of local men into the Rotary Club of Cobourg. The Club was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Montreal under the guidance of Montreal Rotarian Ernest Latter. The first regular meeting of the Club was held on Friday at 12:30 noon August 23, 1921 at the British Hotel. On Tuesday November 29, 1921 District Governor Hart Irving Seeley of Waverly New York presented the Official Charter - number 997 to the membership .There was 23 members on the charter and they represented a fair cross section of the town (see below). The officers were President J.E. Stone, Secretary A.W. Young and Treasurer A.J. Plunkett. The 125 guests at this meeting were from cities and towns in Ontario, Quebec and the USA. At this to time 16 years after Rotary was founded by Paul Harris in 1905 there were 997 clubs.
