The Lewis Settlement an excerpt from "Jane Fyfe Yemen's Scrapbook"

"Prior to 1851 Sir James Matheson purchased Lewis Island. The people, or crofters as they were called, had a hard time making a living, the soil was poor and they raised sheep and fished in the sea. Many were unable to meet their rents to the landlord, so he evicted them from their croftings. He bought their sheep and offered them free passage to Canada. He had two sailing boats taking pig iron over the Atlantic ocean.
On May 30, 1851 these people with their families boarded these two sailing vessels at Stornoway, Lewis Island. The trip over was long and hazardous. Durng a terrible storm in mid-Atlantic some of the iron had to be cast overboard and one of the boats lost two masts. It was fortunate that all of the men were sailors. After nine weeks and four days the boats docked at Quebec City on Aug. 4th, 1851.
From Quebec they went down the St. Lawrence River to Fort St. Francis. Here they divided into two groups. And the larger group went down the St. Francis River to settle in Compton County in the province of Quebec. There they named their village Stornoway.
The smaller party went to Montreal where they changed boats and proceeded on up Lake Ontario touching at Toronto and then landing at Hamilton.
From August to December they stayed at Hamilton where they worked at railroad construction. To add to their troubles, smallpox spread through their families and some died. In December they went to Guelph, Galt, Stratford and even to Goderich in search of work.
During the summer of 1852 they all gathered in Goderich, including some who came right from Lewis that summer and early in Sept. they moved to Huron township ----109 families in all.
They settled on the 12th, 10th, 8th, 6th and 4th concessions of Huron township. Here are the family names of these Lewis settlers---MacDonald, Martyn, MacLay, Murray, MacLean, Matheson, MacLennan, Smith, MacIver, Graham, Campbell, MacKenzie, MacFarlane, MacLeod, MacGregor, McKay, Martin and MacArthur."
