Directory of the County of Peel for 1873-4. Part 2.
III.
INHABITANTS OF PEEL IN 1873
The following lists of the inhabitants of the County, are
carefully prepared from the Assessment Rolls for 1873. The
names of inhabitants in each locality, township or village are
set down alphabetically and the several places are also arranged
in alphabetical order, commencing with Albion.
Although much care has been taken in preparing these lists,
there will, doubtless, many errors be found, which, it is hoped,
may be excused.
ALBION
The Township of Albion comprises the north-east portion of the
County of Peel, being bounded on the south by the northern division
of the Gore of Toronto, on the east by the County of York, on the
north by the County of Simcoe, and on the west by the Township
of Caledon and part of Chinguacousy.
It is a township of good land, pretty well supplied with water
by the River Humber, which runs with many windings, and many
branches through nearly the whole length of the Township.
Albion was surveyed in 1819, and its settlement commenced
immediately, thereafter.
The population, according to the census of 1871, was at that time 4,857.

CATARACT
The Post office name of a small village in Caledon, better known as
Church's Falls, from the name of the proprietor, Richard Church, Esq.
Distant from Charleston station of the Toronto, Grey and Bruce Railway
3 miles, from Brampton 19 miles. Here is an office of the Montreal
Telegraph Co. The Credit Falls at this place afford superior water power.
There is something like a romance connected with this place
which many of the older settlers will remember. In the year
1818 when the territory now forming this County and Halton was
a dense wilderness, except a few conncessions along the lake shore,
very thinly settled, those few settlers were suddenly attacked
with a most violent gold fever. By some means it camee to be
understood that the mountain running along behind the settlement
was full of gold and immediately a large portion of the male
population abandoned all other work, and marched to the
backwoods where they spent weeks and months in search of the
yellow nuggets, but without the success, which at a later period,
has been attained in California and Australia. One of the keenest
of those gold hunters, was an active and enterprising young Scotchman,
by the name of Grant. He was a clerk in the store of Mr. Matthew Crooks,
of Flamborough West, when hearing of the wealth that was to be found in the
wilderness, he started in pursuit, and spent many days and nights
in fruitless search for the gold. He paid particelar attention to the hills
and valleys of the Credit, and doubtless spent some time in
examining the holes and crevices about the "Devil's pulpit," but
no gold was found. He found the Credit Falls, however, and in
the immediate neighborhood a spring of salt or brackish water,
which be concluded could be turned into gold. The territory was
surveyed during the next year and the lands brought into
market, when Mr. Grant prevailed on Mr. Crooks to purchase the
lot which contained the falls and the salt spring, and to
furnish him, Mr.Grant, with authority and money, to occupy and
develop the riches of the premise. Men were set to work digging
and boring at the salt well, and other employed in the
erection of a sawmill, to supply lumber for the commencement
of the splendid town speedily to be erected.
The rising town was named Gleniffer.
The utter failure of the whole plan is pretty well known;
no salt of any consequence could be obtained; and the saw-mill
after being used, for a few years, to very little if any,
advantage, was finally deserted, and allowed to rot in peace.
And the place for years afterwards was a desolate wilderness,
until purchased by Mr. Church, who has started a town which
promises a better result than that of poor Mr. Grant.
These falls were still more remarkable in former times, as
forming the final barrier to the navigation of the salmon
westward. In those times, on two or three occasions in each
summer, the Credit was filled with salmon, actually to
overflowing, fresh and fat, pushing their way
westward to deposit their eggs. In a few weeks thereafter,
those that had escaped the spear of the Indian or the new
settler, might be seen wending their way backward, pale and thin.
