• Note*: circa 1778; "At Sandhurst, a settlement which is situated a few miles above King's Town in the Lower Bay, below Adolphustown, Samuel Sherwood, brother of Captain Justus Sherwood of wartime Secret Service fame, has opened up his trading centre, since this past two years. His account book, to be kept over a long period of time, will contain most of the names of the prominent settlers of the entire Bay area. This store is to carry on many years of trade, dealing in every available type of provision, from Mohawk muggasins to fine fabrics, and all manner of services, from obtaining leather for shoes to the shodding of horses and oxen and the transportation of small machinery from Lachine, Quebec. Samuel Sherwood will pursue, in total, a remarkable twenty-five year career of dealing with other settlers in enterprises ranging from money-lending and the provision of farm animals for lease to teh personal services of tailoring suits of clothes and many other customings fo the day." from "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, U.E., pg. 249 & 250.³
