I don't know if it was in the genealogy I sent along a couple of years ago. Anyway: Ron Mesnard writes: The first job JS had in CA was moving supplies for a lumber co. They supplied wood for a ship builder in Port Hope. After a few years of that he went home. At 19 he moved to Meaford. He must have gotten his dad to work on a land grant while was in VT; WBB here. I see connections here I did not see before. The ship builder is William Samuel Marsh, son of Samuel William Marsh of Port Hope. Don't confuse this William Samuel with his uncle William Samuel. WS Marsh became very wealthy. He was also John Sprague Marsh's first cousin, although much older. Moreover, John Sprague Marsh worked with Daniel Brands (or Brand), whose wife was Elizabeth Sexton, another first cousin of JSM, and the person honored in JSM's naming of his oldest son, Daniel Brand Marsh (1858-1933), a well-known preacher scientist, and inventor.

He lived in 1843 at Conc 12 Lot 6, St. Vincent Twp., Grey Co., Ontario; "BIOGRAPHY: "Asa had become unhappy with conditions in Carrying Place and Brighton, and had been looking for opportunities that might come along. Grey County had been open to prospective settlers for about twenty years. There was still crown land available and the prospects for successful venture looked good.
Asa applied for and received a land grant in St. Vincent Township. The grant had been obtained through his efforts at Toronto. The crown had granted him the east half of lots 7 and 8 in the XIIth Concessions. We think Asa had visited the land in 1858. He probably travelled by rail to Collingwood, and by steamship to Meaford. For the rest of the trip he may have rented a horse and wagon in Meaford and driven to his property. The 15, 16 sideroad, and the Xith line road and possibly part of 9, 10 sideroad would have been passable at that time."
