EMMIGRATION: General Remarks: Since I came to Canada I have seen many "ups" and "downs", but my whole experience has proved to me that steady perservance and untimig? industry are the two great essentials to success. This is the poor man's country; and the settler has only to work to insure prosperity. Money is worth having, but a man can get along without it if he will. Labor is a article and a good trong arm is worth more than a log house, in nine cases out of ten, if a man knows how to use it. I did very well as blacksmith at eh building of Brock's monument - so well - that although it does not become me to boast- of it - I am now Reeve of the Township of Pilkington - but plodding, go ahead, never give in, hard labor has been my ??? capital. I have raised a large family and I find that the "olive branches" are the best timber to put spokes in the wheel. James McQueen of Pilkington

BIOGRAPHY: from Sharie Argue sharieargue@imagewireless.ca
James born in Doune by Sterling, Perthshire, Scotland. Rec'd a fair public school education. After leaving school he apprenticed to be a blacksmith in Doune and became an excellent Blacksmith ...times were hard. Helen his wife was born in Stratgarnie, Perthshire, M. 1822. Newly weds set off for Canada three days after their wedding. Arrived in Montreal. He worked for a time in Montreal and then moved to St. Catherines Ontario. Here he worked on the building of the lock port canal. He was known as an excellent worker and was paid well. James also did the iron work at Brock's monument located at Queenston Heights. He was a staunch reformer and a warm admirer of William Lyon McKenzie whom he assisted in laying the foundation stone at Brock's monument. Having saved his money he moved in 1824 to Esquesing and bought a farm. The grist had to be carried to the mill a distance of 12 miles on his back. Farming was difficult, so he sold the farm and moved to the core of Toronto & he remained here for a decade. During his residence in Toronto he was incarcerated in the Gaol (jail) overnight as it was thought he was a rebel during the McKenzie Rebellion. He was a true Grit and only expressed his views! He sold out and in 1846 he purchased 500 acres of land in the Pilkington Twsp. near Elora on a 5 year credit. The price of the land was set at $4.00 per acre. His sons helped him clear 140 acres of land, build a house, and barn & put in a small crop. The farm was called Blythwood. In the 1853 agricultural census, James had 16 head of cattle, 2 horses, 6 oxen, 12 sheep, 13 pigs. He also grew wheat , oats, and potatoes. "Since I came to Canada I have seen many ups and downs, but my whole experiece has proved to me that steady perserverence and untiring industry are the two greatest essentials to success." direct quote. "This is the poor man's country and the settler has only to work to ensure prosperity." quoted in comments section 1853 census. "Money is worth having, but a man can get along without it if he will labour in a cash article; and a good strong arm is worth more than a log house in 9 cases out of 10, if a man knows how to use it. I did very well as a blacksmith at the building of Brock's monument, so well that all though it does not become me to boast of it, I am now Reeve of the township of Pilkington--but plodding, go ahead, never give in, hard labour has been my principal capital. I have raised a large family and I find that the olive branches are the best timber to put spokes in a wheel." He remained in Pilkington for 35 years. and his son and dau. in law were with him for part of the time. Census 1871. Member of Knox Presbyterian Church, (Elora area) d. Friday, Dec. 29, 1882 at the residence of his dau. Mrs. Mary McQueen Binney in Salem at the age of 85. He had been ill for quite a time, lingering illness. It was said that he was very opinionated, but he had a warm heart and did many kind acts. He was widely known and very much respected and at the time of his death, all 10 children, 61 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchildren were living.
