Somewhére about the year 1780 two Germans named respectively Krautz and Wigle, landed on the shore of Lake Erie, near where Kingsville now stands. The former was a Hessiin, of Burgoyne‘s legion, who â€"had surrendered at Trenton, and upon being liberated, clung still to the cross of Great Britain, rather than to the new banner of the young Republic. The latter was & tory resident of Pensy!lâ€" vania, whose love for British institutions fprbade his continued residence upon the soil of the revolted colonies. After Krauts (whose cognomen has since become anglified to Scratch) had become settled in Canada, he went home to Germany:â€" and returned within a few months with his regular discharge from the army. uols The difficulty of communication preâ€" vented any great amount of intercourse between the Rm and Southern branches of the y untul the era of railroads and steamboats, since which time there has been more or less visiting to and fro ; but, owing to the extensiveâ€" ness of the family, it was almost impossiâ€" ble for m{-m of them to see anything like all of his relations durin, a visit of ;adimry length. In consequen of this, it was arranged between the two f4milies that at an appointed time they s Id hold a Lu::ic, at which as many of the American ch as oonveniond&oo would : be present to meet their nadian relations.
