Note: We might wonder if it was Edward Jr. who bought the land back in 1815.

Castle and got a small place from him in this town and have given him my oblagation and mortgage against you which he wants to make a trade with you and take part money and part of the profits therefrom. My family wants to go down to the southland and that was why I wanted to turn it into another place although I did not suit myself but I could not make any other trade without promising all money and I think that it will be for your advantage and somewhat my disadvantage because I could do as well again with the money. You undoubtedly will send me some money that the people had paid you for me. Short has paid you what is due altogether likely. I am in more want of money now than ever. I did not think it proper for me to come out to Canada as long as I could send. If some other collector's hands for my necessity is great. By their paying me I shall be able to wait on you for that note. Please to do the best you can for me. Please to spur up Dewlittle to fulfill his payments and set the wheels by if you can't sell them. Please to write to me the particulars of all the business as I got but one letter from you that was dated the 24 of May. Undoubtedly you will come and see me next winter if not before. If you come before winter any time when you come I will take a wagon and carry you to Chag Harbour when you want to return and it will be nothing more than a pleasant ride for you as you can go from the Harbour to your place by steam boat. Have Mr. Kingsbury come with you. Factory cotton is cheap if you want to trade in that line and can help you to forward it on to the water so you need not bring your own team. As for the cheapness of cotton goods you can find out by Mr. Hines that will be with Mr. Castle but I think that they are less than one York shilling per yard by the quantity because I have bought by the single piece for 15 cents per yard. I wrote you a letter some time ago in answer to the one that I rec'd having date 24 of May. When you write to me direct it Camden, Oneida County, York State. That being left out perhaps was the cause of the long delay. Please to send me my part hide that he gave me. Please to write me whether you got a note of Short for the order that I sent you from Kingston and please to have Short or some other person that owes me there get me some blue cloth for a pair of overalls and shirting cambric for two shirts and send it to me by Castle. If there is any change for to take a still on shares or pay on Smiths Crick if you come out or send word to the effect I will go out and still next winter. Stilling here is dull at present. I made 3000 gallons of whiskey last winter but whiskey is so cheap there is nothing to be made. Whiskey in plenty for Is 3d H.C. per gallon. If Sanford does not pay that note please to convey it to Mr. Ward and the other two notes which I shall send by Castle to you and take Ward's receipt for the three as I shall write Ward a line to proceed and put it in your letter not sealed and if you have to send the notes to Ward you can seal the letter.
Also I shall send you some notes against Richard Loomis and if you can get any good property of him or his brothers please to take it and if not you can keep the notes till I see you. Please to receipt them to Castle as he has receipted them to me. If you have to send the notes to Ward send the account likewise. If you come out here please to fetch my bench screw and nut and one little wheel if possible.

Forest Park Cemetery, Camden, Oneida County, New York, USA; MEMORIAL ID: 154895801; Note: From Pioneer History of the Town of Camden (1897) www.rootsweb.com/~nyoneida/; Edward Goodyear married Leva Alcott in Wolcott, Conn., in 1814. They emigrated from Connecticut in 1817, and settled in Canada. In 1820 they came to Camden and bought this farm of 170 acres of Norman Castle the same year. He lived in the village six years,* and in the mean time built this house (photo). Their next home was what is known as the Willis house, and at that time from Second street back to Mad River was called Pine Hill; it was all woods. Lucius and Harry Goodyear remember very well of playing there on the logs with the boys. When they came here the village was a mere hamlet of a dozen houses. The country around here soon began to be cleared by the quick descending blows of the pioneers' ax. Edward Goodyear had a distillery under the Penfield & Stone mill, when it was owned by Lyman Curtiss and Israel Stoddard, not far from 1822. Edward Goodyear was the father of eight children. Three living at the present time are Harry, Lucius, and Leva, now Mrs. P. C. Costello. Edward and Edwin (twin children); Linus and Pernett died many years ago. Mrs. Costello says that although a mere child, she remembers the loneliness of her mother when they lived on the farm in the woods. Her mother would be sitting by the fireplace, knitting, with her children around her, and telling them stories of the dear ones she had left in Connecticut and of the wonderful deeds of their great-grandfather, Capt. John Alcott, of Revolutionary fame. Mrs. Goodyear's uncle, Joseph Alcott was grandfather to Louisa M. Alcott, the writer. Mr. Edward Goodyear was born in Cheshire, Conn., in 1788 and died in Camden in 1862, aged 74; Mrs. Goodyear died in 1863. Lorenzo M. Goodyear died May 29, 1897, aged 77 (341-342). *While living in the village and building a house in the woods on the farm purchased from Castle, they resided in the following structure, as described in "Grip's" (78) under Lucius B. Goodyear's entry: "At that time Camden was a mere hamlet of twelve or fifteen houses. The west side of Main street was then in woods. Edward Goodyear, father of Lucius, owned a small farm extending from what is now Forest park, on the east side of the street, as far north as Starks' carriage shop. The Goodyear family then lived in the only house standing on that side of the street. It had previously been used for a tavern and it was the first and only public house in the village.

It established constitutional order around the British North American colonies, with the most obvious change being the division of the old Province of Quebec into Upper and Lower Canada. (Dan Buchanan, from the Canadian Encyclopedia, https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/constitutional-act-1791. on 26 December 1791 at Canada. He "The memory of Edward Goodyear is perpetrated by the fact that he was one of the men who, by canoe, piloted the Duke of Kent on his visit to Canada and Presqu'ile." This is from page 51 of the Tobey Book. The term Presqu'ile here may have referred to the larger penninsula of Prince Edward County and not the smaller Presqu'ile Point, south of Brighton. In early times, this was a common way to refer to Prince Edward County. (Dan Buchanan, Nov 27 2020) in August 1792 at Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada.⁴ He "Prince Edward visited Upper Canada (Ontario) eight months after its creation by the proclamation of the Constitution Act of 1791 (becoming the first member of the Royal Family to visit the area). Touring the various Loyalist settlements (Cornwall, Kingston, and the other Royal Townships) in the new province, as well as meeting with delegations of First Nations, Edward helped foster a new British identity for Upper Canada. Hosted by Lieutenant Governor Simcoe in Newark, Prince Edward made a point of visiting forts Niagara and Scholsser (inserting himself in a boundary dispute with the United States)."

It was merely a few scattered homesteads on land obtained by crown grants. In the next hundred years it would grow into a township and then a village.
It would receive a name, be incorporated and set up a village council. Many people were to settle in the area and start businesses. The unfolding of these events are chronicled in the succeeding chapters. Pioneers such as Edward Goodyear, Obediah Simpson, Josiah Proctor and those immediately following them had Very few opportunities for obtaining daily or weekly newspapers." from The Tobey Book, page 35, Brighton Public Library.⁴ He lived in 1802 at Conc 2 Lot 1, Cramahe Twp., Northumberland Co., Upper Canada; "The townships of Murray and Cramahe had their origin in the first surveys. The boundary line between the old Cramahe Township and the old. Murray Township was Prince Edward Street running north and south past the Whites old mill to the bay. This old boundary line had the township of Cramahe to the west where the first settlers chose lots 1, 2, and 4, on the bay front.

Note: The location of Lot 1, Conc 2 is north of Main St., Brighton, west of Young Street to about Platt St., north to include Proctor House Museum and property. Please note that, in 1803, Young St./Prince Edward St. as we know them represented the border between Murray Township to the east and Cramahe township to the west. This would be the case until Brighton Township was created Jan 1 1852, taking the east part of Cramahe and the west part of Murray. This situation creates all sorts of confusion for researchers, which is why I try to document these things clearly.

Note: Edward Goodyear received the Crown Patent for this lot Jun 16 1803, sold it to John Nix in 1811 and bought it back in 1815.
Note: We might wonder if it was Edward Jr. who bought the land back in 1815. In the document, the designation Jr. is clearly added to the name for some transactions and not others, all with the same hand writing. This means that we need to take it seriously.

Castle and got a small place from him in this town and have given him my oblagation and mortgage against you which he wants to make a trade with you and take part money and part of the profits therefrom. My family wants to go down to the southland and that was why I wanted to turn it into another place although I did not suit myself but I could not make any other trade without promising all money and I think that it will be for your advantage and somewhat my disadvantage because I could do as well again with the money. You undoubtedly will send me some money that the people had paid you for me. Short has paid you what is due altogether likely. I am in more want of money now than ever. I did not think it proper for me to come out to Canada as long as I could send. If some other collector's hands for my necessity is great. By their paying me I shall be able to wait on you for that note. Please to do the best you can for me. Please to spur up Dewlittle to fulfill his payments and set the wheels by if you can't sell them. Please to write to me the particulars of all the business as I got but one letter from you that was dated the 24 of May. Undoubtedly you will come and see me next winter if not before. If you come before winter any time when you come I will take a wagon and carry you to Chag Harbour when you want to return and it will be nothing more than a pleasant ride for you as you can go from the Harbour to your place by steam boat. Have Mr. Kingsbury come with you. Factory cotton is cheap if you want to trade in that line and can help you to forward it on to the water so you need not bring your own team. As for the cheapness of cotton goods you can find out by Mr. Hines that will be with Mr. Castle but I think that they are less than one York shilling per yard by the quantity because I have bought by the single piece for 15 cents per yard. I wrote you a letter some time ago in answer to the one that I rec'd having date 24 of May. When you write to me direct it Camden, Oneida County, York State. That being left out perhaps was the cause of the long delay. Please to send me my part hide that he gave me. Please to write me whether you got a note of Short for the order that I sent you from Kingston and please to have Short or some other person that owes me there get me some blue cloth for a pair of overalls and shirting cambric for two shirts and send it to me by Castle. If there is any change for to take a still on shares or pay on Smiths Crick if you come out or send word to the effect I will go out and still next winter. Stilling here is dull at present. I made 3000 gallons of whiskey last winter but whiskey is so cheap there is nothing to be made. Whiskey in plenty for Is 3d H.C. per gallon. If Sanford does not pay that note please to convey it to Mr. Ward and the other two notes which I shall send by Castle to you and take Ward's receipt for the three as I shall write Ward a line to proceed and put it in your letter not sealed and if you have to send the notes to Ward you can seal the letter.
Also I shall send you some notes against Richard Loomis and if you can get any good property of him or his brothers please to take it and if not you can keep the notes till I see you. Please to receipt them to Castle as he has receipted them to me. If you have to send the notes to Ward send the account likewise. If you come out here please to fetch my bench screw and nut and one little wheel if possible.
