Description
This photograph was taken in 1999. The house was the home of the Stoutt family for a good 90 years. John Stout was granted the land deed for Lot NE 1/4 8, Concession 1 NS in 1846 (Deed 5 18460401 ND). He was about 67 years of age at the time of the 1871 Census, born in Ireland, his occupation was farming. He died in Trafalgar Township in 1883 as per the notice in the Canadian Champion, 22 Mar 1883, p.3. The notice of the death of his wife, Grace (Sheridan) Stout, appeared in the Canadian Champion, November 16, 1905, p.3.


Notes
Some family children attended the Omagh Public school. The Hornby railway stationmaster in about 1910 was a Mr. Stout and Morley Stout was involved with the Loyal Orange Lodge in Hornby about the same time.

The family surname is usually spelled "Stoutt" in legal documents but in less formal writing such as the newspaper, is likely to be "Stout", even "Stoute".
