  • Time Line by Clare Mclean-Wilson
    Time Line By Clare McLean-Wilson 1615 Champlain and the Recollet Missionary Father LeCaron are the first white men to visit the native people that live in what will become Grey County. 1815 Captain Owen, in his ‘little survey schooner’ discovers the harbour that will later be named Owen Sound. 1818 The first native treaty is struck. For the ‘yearly payment for ever of twelve hundred pounds of currency in goods at Montreal Prices’ the land covered by Osprey, Collingwood, Artemesia, Euphrasia and St. Vincent, approximately one million five hundred and ninety two acres, is relinquished by its native occupants. 1833 Charles Rankin comes to survey and lay out townships in “the Wild Land beyond the Simcoe district”. 1835 Tarvas Indians from Wikwemikog and Pottawattamies from the State of Wisconsin join the Ojibway people of this area after their land is given to the Government of the United States. 1836 The Sauking Treaty takes “in the land in the County of Grey from the west of the Townships of Euphrasia and St. Vincent to a line directly west of Owen Sound and extending south from that line probably over all the remainder of the county.” Except Sarawak and Keppel, all of the future Grey County is in white hands. 1841 July 6, the first post office in Grey County is opened in St. Vincent Township. 1848 First year that what will be Grey County has an election for a member of the Provincial Legislative Assembly. 1849 First horse brought to Grey County.

  • My Journey: Finding My Grey County Roots
    My Journey: Finding My Grey County Roots Nancy M. Lee When I began my quest to find my family’s history many years ago, I had no idea that I was directly descended from two old farmers from Grey County, Ontario. In the summer of 2007 I discovered a small notebook in my late cousin’s effects that had originally belonged to my paternal great grandfather, James Albert Leraine Miller, which shed the first glimmer of light on where branches of my family may have settled during the mid-1800s. The notebook had the names plus dates of birth of the children and grandchildren of my paternal great grandparents. James Miller was the father of my father’s mother, Adelene Bertha Miller. In James’ own handwriting, he wrote that he was born in Owen Sound on Feb 18, 1866. Up until then I knew next to nothing about James, and I spent the rest of that year trying in vain to find out more about him and his connection to Owen Sound. The following summer, in August 2008, my husband and I ventured up to the Owen Sound Emancipation Celebration Picnic for the very first time. I had a picture of my great grandfather, James A.L. Miller, and the knowledge which I had gained from the little notebook, as well as the 1871 Canadian Census,1 that he was the son of Margaret and Henry Miller. I went to the registration desk and asked if anyone knew anything about the Miller family. I was then introduced to a gentleman who was descended from Thomas Henry Miller, the co-founder of this Emancipation Celebration.

Technical Team Hongtao Gao, P.Eng., PTOE. Andrew Evans M.Sc. ~ 3 ~ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Introduction The City of Owen Sound has embarked on the development of a multifaceted and comprehensive Transportation Master Plan known as “A Plan in Motion”. The growth in population within the City its outlying areas, increasing traffic congestion in some areas of the City, and changing demographics and societal values, contribute to support for more sustainable modes of travel. Transportation related opportunities and challenges have reinforced the need to develop a comprehensive transportation plan to better manage existing and future transportation infrastructure and to ensure that Owen Sound maintain its position as the key regional centre in Grey and Bruce Counties. This TMP is a practical guide for implementing transportation investments, policies, and actions to the year 2026 and beyond. The guiding principles from this document firstly ensure consistency and help to achieve the goals and objectives of other City policies such as the Official Plan and the Strategic Plan, and secondly provide for traceable recommendations to ensure that once they have been approved they can be implemented. The Owen Sound Transportation Master Plan has been conducted in accordance with the master planning process outlined in the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process (June 2000, Amended 2007) as approved by the Minister of the Environment.
