The land first granted to him by the Government was, according to the Crown lands record, sold to Cyrenus Parks. Jacob Detlor, his son, was the father of the subject of this notice and was also a life-long resident of the same township. Mr. Byard Detlor married Miss Martha Ham, a daughter of Mr. John Ham, one of the early prominent residents of Fredericksburgh, who survives him with six of their children. The sons living are George, Jacob and Perry, all residents of South Fredericksburgh, and Delew, in Minnesota.
