In Memorium - John MILLIE, born at Monimail, Fifeshire, Scotland, July 13th 1815. Died at Glassville, N.B. Canada July 13th, 1896, Aged 81 years. - It was only a year ago that we followed the remains of the late Mrs. John Millie to the grave - wife of the deceased. The late John Mills received an excellent common school education. He spent the earlier part of his life in various pusuits, in all of which he displayed that indominable industry and sterling integrity which laid the foundations of the honorable independence to which he afterwards arose. He was united in marriage, in due course, to his late wife, Isabella BAIN, daughter of the late Peter BAIN of Leslie and niece of Sir William BAIN, R.N. The fruit of this union was three children, the two eldest of whom died in Scotland. With his wife and youngest child, Peter Bain MILLIE, now married in Glassville and accountant to Timothy LYNCH, one of our largest provincial lumber merchants, he came to New York in 1853. The family remained in the States till 1859 when they came to Westmorland, N.B., where deceased was engaged in the service of the Westmorland Olive Freestone Co. Thence they removed to Glassville in June 1861 where deceased engaged in farming and was long considered an agriculturist of excellent standing, residing on his farm until the day of his death. Reared in the old country to the doctrines of the Presbyterian church, he continued faithful to the last. The remains of the deceased were consigned to the grave in the family burying ground now enclosed with a fine iron fence in Glassville cemetery, Wednesday 15th, Rev. J.K. Beairsto and Rev. J. Home conducting service at the home and the former at the grave. (see original for eulogy)

County : Carleton
Place : Woodstock
Newspaper : Carleton Sentinel
The late Mrs. John MILLIE, nee Isabella BAIN, was born at Dunfernline, Fifeshire, Scotland in August 1815. She was the d/o late Peter BAIN of Leslie, same county and niece of Sir William BAIN, R.N., who was knighted by the Queen on Granton Pier, Edinburgh, on the occasion of Her Majesty's first visit to Scotland. Sir William Bain was considered at the time' one of the ablest, as he certainly was the oldest naval officer on the eastern coast. He subsequently entered the service of the mercantile marine and became one of the distinguished steam navigators between Leith and London - finally commodore of the Steam Shipping Co.'s fleet. In due course the deceased was united in marriage to him who now mourns her loss, John MILLIE, a native of Monimail, Fifeshire. The fruit of this union was three children, the two eldest of whom died in Scotland. With her husband and youngest child, Peter BAIN, now married in Glassville (Carleton Co.) and an accountant of the firm Lynch Bros., she came to New York in 1853. The family remained in the States until 1859, when they came to Westmorland, N.B., where Mr. Millie was engaged in the service of the Westmorland Olive Freestone Co. Thence he removed to Glassville in June 1861 before Mr. Glass's settlers arrived here from Scotland. In Glassville Mr. Millie engaged in farming and has all along been considered an agriculturalist in excellent standing. Though himself a man of intelligence, energy and enterprise, a good deal of his success in life was undoubtedly owing to the management and shrewdness no less than to the co-operation of his deceased partner whose educational training in her youth was of a superior nature. For a year of two past Mrs. Millie's health had been gradually giving way. Some time age she met with an accident which no doubt hastened her end. She lingered on with brief intermissions of temporary sickness till early morn. Jan. 1st, when surrounded by her family circle, she peacefully fell asleep in Jesus. She leaves an aged husband, son and daughter. Mrs. Millie's remains were consigned to their last resting place Thursday afternoon, Jan. 3rd, Rev. J.K. Beairsto holding services at the house, church and grave. ******************** Daniel F. Johnson : Volume95Number2245 DateJanuary 5 1895 CountyCarleton PlaceWoodstock NewspaperCarleton Sentinel d.

Notes:

THE PEARSON FAMILY

Only a relatively small number of farms in the Glassville area have remained in the hands of the same family from earliest settler to the present day. One is the Pearson farm - the first south of the village, now owned by Murray Pearson.

By 1860 or at latest 1861, Richard D. Pearson, age 20, and his brother James A., 16, were in Glassville and probably living at first with the John Simpson family. Four hundred acres were granted to the Pearsons - Lot 26 to Richard's father Joseph (the original and present homestead Lot 26 to Richard, the farm later owned by the Lyons family Lot 30 to Richard's brother John, the farm immediately next to the village including the present church end cemetery area, and Lot 25, the farm on the west side of the road, later owned by Wesley McIntosh.

Joseph and his wife Mary had three sons in addition to Richard and James: John (1843), Joseph (1851), William (1853) and two daughters, Mary (1839) and Charlotte (1052). All seven children were born in Kings County, near Sussex.

Joseph was born in 1806 in Wigton, England near Carlisle. He came to New Brunswick in 1825 with his father John (1765), mother Jane Harden (1767), brother William and uncle Thomas. They settled in Pearsonville, a small community in the Kierstead Mountain area, near Sussex. Mary McDiarmid was born in Scotland in 1813 and also came out to Kings County with her family. Joseph and Mary were married in Sussex in 1638.

One of Mary's sisters, Jane, married John Simpson, who was born in Scotland in 1823 and came to Upham, Kings County in 1829 with his family.

About 1860, when word circulated throughout New Brunswick about the new settlement in Carleton County, the Pearsons, Simpson's and McDiarmid's decided to move on. It is not known who initiated the move; perhaps someone visited the area while the survey was in progress. Possibly someone in the families knew the Farley's, who were already living in Esdraelon. If not, the Pearson boys got to know them well later - both Richard and John married Farley girls.

John Simpson's brother James was granted Lot #24, the present Murray McIntosh farm, and John was granted Lot #22, the farm immediately south, later the Nixon farm. The McDiarmid's settled in the East Glassville range near the Glassville-Juniper road.

Mary, the eldest Pearson daughter, died at childbirth on December 25, 1875 leaving four children. Two of them, Archibald A. Pearson and McKay Warwick Mann, were given a home with their grandparents, uncle William and aunt Charlotte. Two daughters remained with their father Richard
Mann.

The eldest son, Richard, did not remain long in Glassville. He sold his farm in 1865 to William Lyon, a blacksmith who came from Banffshire, Scotland. Richard married Ellen Farley of Esdraelon, as mentioned. He owned and operated a mill at Beechwood, then later in Ferndale and Fortuna in California. Richard and Ellen had six daughters; the youngest born in California.

John (1843-1885) was the owner of the farm nearest the village, and donated the land for the first church and cemetery. He was still living at home in 1871 but married Matilda Fancy (1850-1926) not long after. After John's death, Matilda, with her son Sheppard, moved to California to be with her sister.

James (1845-1913), who at fifteen or sixteen had come to Glassville with his brother to start the family relocation process, may not have lived long in Glassville. He married Charlotte Augusta and took up farming in Upper Brighton. They had nine children, most of whom remained in Carleton County. One daughter, Mary, moved to Detroit.

Joseph Jr. (1851-1926) still living at home in 1871 and then twenty, married Matilda Jones soon after. They lived in Saint John and Beechwood where he ran a general store and may have been associated with his brother Richard in a lumbering business. After a period in California with Richard, he settled in Upper Brighton where he farmed and was active in local politics. Joseph and Matilda had two sons, Murray (1872) and Frank (1878), both of whom settled in Houlton, Maine.

Joseph Sr. died in 1881 at age 75. At that time the household consisted of his widow Mary, then 60, son William, 28, as head of the household, daughter Charlotte, 29, and grandsons Archibald Pearson and McKay Mann. Tragedy struck five years later when William was severely injured in a woods accident and died of his injuries at age 33.

William willed the family homestead to Charlotte and their nephew McKay Warwick Mann, and seventy-five acres, the remaining paaart of John's original farm next to the cemetery, to nephew Archibald. This was conditional upon Charlotte and Archibald caring for his mother, and Archibald being head of the household until Warwick (as Richard called him) became of age. Mother Mary died in the following year, 1887, at age 74.

By 1891, Archibald had married Mary Lamont and in 1892 Charlotte married Peter Millie. McKay, who had been with his aunt from infancy, moved to the Millie household and spent the rest of his life with her and her son John Peter. On Charlotte's marriage, the homestead and farm passed to Archibald. Charlotte lived on the Millie farm with her son until her death in 1935. Her daughter Isa married James Scott and they, with their daughter Charlotte Millie Scott., lived just a few farms south.

Archie and Mary had three children. Harry married Elizabeth (Lizzie) McIntosh and lived in Bath for most of his life. Mary (Mamie) married William McIntosh and lived for many years in Kenneth before moving to Glassville and the farm directly across the road from the old homestead. This is the property now owned by their daughter Elsie. Wilfred, the youngest, married Jean Elliott and lived the rest of his life on the homestead, passing away in 1973. Their son Murray, the present owner is therefore the fifth generation of the family to live and farm on the land first granted to the Pearsons in 1861.
