TOWNSHIP OF EAST ZORRA The present Townships of East and West Zorra were originally united for Municipal purposes, under the name of the "Township of Zorra". East Zorra became a separate and distinct Municipality in the year 1845; it is bounded on the North by the township of Wilmot, (County of Waterloo,) on the South by portions of the Townships of Blandford and North Oxford; on the East by Blandford and on the West by the Township of West Zorra. It is watered by tributaries of the River Thames which forms part of its eastern boundary, and is well supplied with water power for mill purposes. There are grist, flouring, oatmeal, saw, carding and fulling mills in the Township. It is excellent land throughout, and contains a number of superior farms. Its settlement commenced about the year 1820, and it has now a population according to the census returns for 1861, of four thousand five hundred and ten, (2345 Males, and 2165 Females,) being an increase over the population in 1851, (which was 3200) of one thousand three hundred and ten. Children attending school in 1861, nine hundred and one, births recorded in 1860, one hundred and sixty eight, deaths in same year, forty six. There are three post offices in the Township, viz: Braemar, Innerkip, and South Zorra. It is traversed by the Woodstock and Huron Gravel Road.
