  • The William Ghant Family: Pioneers of Melancthon Township
    The William Ghant Family: Pioneers of Melancthon Township Article submitted and Appendix compiled by Peter Meyler. Article originally printed in A History of Dufferin County, by Stephen Sawden, Orangeville, Ontario, c. 1930s During what was known as the “Epoch of Colonization” in Grey and Simcoe counties following the years 1849-50, two well-known pioneers of Melancthon, the late William and Mrs. Ghant, came from Toronto to Hall’s Corners and on to Beachell’s tavern, walking much of the way. Choosing as their homestead the 50 acres, lot No. 285, 1st con. S.W.T. & S. Road, they proceeded to clear a plot on the corner facing the Toronto line upon which to build a log cabin and plant a patch of potatoes. The foundation logs and dugout cellar of this primitive dwelling, still noticeable in recent years, stood almost on the site of the frame tavern, the “Dufferin Inn,” built of rough hemlock lumber by James McGoey, thirty years later. After spending a few years here and making a considerable clearing on the front of the lot, the Ghants moved four miles farther back from the Toronto Line and settled on a bush lot near what in later years became known as Small’s Corner. Here they settled and cleared another farm, erected log buildings and remained for several years. By this time the Ghant family, five boys and three girls, were almost full grown. With a view to securing farms for his family Mr. Ghant took up from the Crown a block of 300 acres in the 5th and 6th cons., S.W., which in recent years was known as the Ferrier property.

(HE GREAT WAR had changed irrevocably the order of Tthings and delivered an uncertain future not only for Canada and the world but also for the Mennonite people. Canada s 58,800 Mennonites3 represented less than one per cent of that country's population, but about 1 1 per cent of the total Mennonite population around the world in 1921 (see Table 1). Canadian Mennonites nevertheless became the focus of an intense struggle for survival, both nationally and internationally, during the inter-war period. From abroad came desperate calls for help from a belea- guered people facing the physical and spiritual calamities of the Bolshevik revolution.5 In Canada, the changing political, social, and economic conditions represented external threats to the traditional way of life. Internal weaknesses too, while not great enough to render the Mennonites helpless, significantly impaired their ability to deal effectively with the problems of the day.
