He married (2) SARAH. Notes for W ILLIAM MICHENER: The following is an article which appeared in THe Globe in October 1890. It was recopied in the Welland Tribune, February 7, 1928. ("Still Micheners in America," 1997pgs. 1367,1368, 1369). " Not far from Port Colbourne and to the west there rises a steep, conicaly formed hill, from the summit of which one may easily see the American shore on the south and the spray from the Falls of Niagra at a distance of many miles to the northeast. This elevation was known to the settlers as the "Sugar Loaf Settlement." A Great grandfather of the settlement is the venerable Mr. William Michener. He was born in 1804, near the village of Doylestown, Bucks County, in the state of Pennsylvania, and came to this country with his mother when he was 13 years old. The story in his own words, in the course of which it will be observed that he makes use of many words now obsolete even in the States. "I jedge," says the old gentleman, " it is nigh onto 73 years sece we sot out for Canada. We traveled 400 miles, my mother and me, with a span of horses and a wagin. Theer w'at' no roads wort mentioning, and when we got as far as Buffalo the only means to cross the river was a scow manned by four hands. It took 28 days to come here. Buffalo want of much account then. From Main Street to the lake was a marsh. I can reflect only one store and one tavern, but perhaps this was on account of the burning of the houses by the British during the war. The only road to "Sugar Loaf" ran along the lake shore to Point Abino which was then occupied by Obadiah and Nathaniel Dennis, two Quakers from the States. A good few Pennsylvanny Dutch came in too about the same time. Some of the original settles, Abraham Neff, Christian Knisley, Christian Babitz, Aaron Doan, the WIntermutes, the Vanderveers and the Perlets. The Wintermutes belonges to the Butler Rangers, John Benjamin, Abraham and Peter got to Canad all safe, but another brother got starved to death on the way. Prices and taxes were both low. Wheat was five shillings a bushel and pork from fifteen shillings to a pound currency and hundred weight. Taxes wa'n't much, only about $2.50 on 200 acres and cows were assesed at three pence and six pence each. We didn't have a municipal council in this part of the Niagra Deestrick in them days and the school master boarded 'round. We were proud to have a log house school with a fireplace that had a stick chimeny. It cost us from twelve to fourteen York shillings a year to eddicate each child. For a long time the only grist mills was Streets' at the Falls and we used to join with a neigbor when we went to the mill. We took two canoes, lashed them together, put boards across, and piled the bags on top. We paddled this way to Chippewa Creek, and then carried the stuff past the rapids two or three miles to and from the mill. Other times we just slung a bag across a horses' back and tramped through the woods. Elections were lively them days. The deestrick elections sometime go over in one day, but it the candidate who was behind at the clos of the first day paid a guines, he could have the polls keep open another day, and this could be done a second time. Where there wa'n' any importance about an election we just divided the house, and there used to great fun apulling men from one side to the other. I said things were cheap then; but I should have said they were scare too. Nancy Leper or Wintermute had to live for months on nothing but fish; and during the war salt got as high as $50.00 a barrel. Jonathon Doan, who moved west to Yarmouth township un Quaker settlement, paid $100.00 for two barrels in Pennsylvanny for the use of the Yarmouth settlers. On the whole we enjoyed life, although we had to work pretty hard. When we couldn't go the the mill, we just put some indian corn into the hallow ent of a stump, or a short log set up and pounded it with a heavy piece of wood on the end of a sping pole-we called this a "hominy stumpor." Sometomes we had to pound the grain with a club." Although Mr. Michener is 86 years of age, the globe continues, "He is comparitively hale in body, and his mental faculties are almost unimpaired. He is the father of thirteen children, five sons and eight daughters and his living descendents, grand and great grandchildren number nearly 100. Always mechanically inclined, there are few houses in the district that did not possess several specimans of his handcraft in the shape of spinnig wheels, churns, cupboards, bookcases, wheelbarrows etc. No man in the old "Sugar Loaf Settlement" is more highly respected or more worthy of the large measure of respect he receives. Naturally shrewd and intelligent, Mr. Michener, in his advanced years is now able to look back upon a well spent life individually, and to deduce many sage conclusions from the retrospect in contrast with things as they are today. He is the oldest living male representative of those who settle in this part of the "Niagra Deestrick" and those who know him best sincerely trust that he may long retain this distinction. William and Sarah lived in Humberstone near Bethel. Her father's parents were Loyalists from New England. They are buried in Steele's Cemetary.
