  Note: George Montgomery is probably the fellow who was caught in The Breakaway on April 21, 1852, and was almost killed. He had been working at the Simpson Mill. In the 1851 Census he is shown a couple of families below John W. Simpson who would have been the mill owner on Conc 4, Lot 34.²
• Note: 21 April 1852; The Breakaway, Hilton, Northumberland Co., Canada West; On April 21, 1852, several days of heavy rain along with spring snowmelt caused a gravel bank to give way on the small lake north-west of Hilton. The water cascaded down the narrow valley, following the creek to the north-east, all the way to Cole Creek and eventually the Trent River. Lewis Shearer's saw mill in the valley north of Hilton was destroyed, killing Mr. Shearer and a helper, Jacob Herrington. This event is known in local parlance as "The Breakaway". The Stephens brothers, Alva and Daniel, had recently obtained parts of the south half of lot 5 from their father Richard, so, all of a sudden, their lake was gone. They sold to John Philp soon after. (Dan Buchanan, July 14 2021)
• Note: 21 April 1852; Brighton Twp., Hilton, Northumberland Co., Canada West; "Those working at the Simpson mill, further east, were more fortunate. George Montgomery must have had some warning, as he was discovered clinging to part of the building that escaped destruction and was rescued. However, Montgomery's hearing was seriously impaired for the rest of his life as a result of his breakaway ordeal."
