Hay Carts
Photo of a threshing gang, likely from the early 20th century. Mrs. Isabella Eldrige, the wife of John Eldridge, mother of Robert Eldridge, and grandmother of Marjorie Elridge, is pictured standing in a long sleeved dress on the right. Threshing parties traveled from farm to farm within a community during harvest season because the task was so labour and resource intensive. This photo shows three separate teams of draft horses pulling hay carts, with the roof of a farmhouse just visible in the background., IHS2779
Hay Wagon
Image of an unidentified man and boy standing atop a hay wagon. This image was originally captioned as "Doug and Allan Ross on wagon they were helping their father bring in sheaves of grain to be threshed" but has now been identified as incorrect by a relative as this is neither Doug nor Allan Ross.
Hay Wagon
Mrs. Wilson Emrick and Evelyn Emrick on a hay wagon. As transcribed from a tape of a conversation between Don Beatty and John Cowan: "This is a typical load of loose hay, probably coiled in the field and pitched on by hand. It's on the way to the barn. It would be taken off, probably by a hay fork, transferred into the mow for winter feed. I don't know that the two ladies driving it were necessarily driving the team. I think that they just posed for the picture.", IHS351

Heaslip Home
The Heaslip home on Church Street, S/E corner of Cook and Church. A large tract of land in West Gwillimbury Township on Highway 89 between the 5 and 10 sideroads. Wood was cut and piled in the winter because of the swampy land it was on. In the little house on the hill, the Heaslips kept milk in a separate building that was immaculately kept. Cold water was the means of keeping the milk fresh until it was picked up by the consumer in pails or jugs. A number of young people took music lessons from Miss Addie Heaslip, who was a student of Dr. Vogt, the founder of the Mendelson Choir. Mr. Heaslip was a lamp lighter for the Town, and Miss Marion Webb said they were coal oil lamps and she and the kids used to follow Mr. Heaslip around as he went on his rounds every evening. The picture was donated to the Tweedsmuir History by Mrs. Dave (Dell) Evans. It was taken about 1942 and the Evans resided here while Mr. Evans was in the Army.

Hector Smith'S Shop And Lumber Yard
Photo of Hector Smith's lumber yard in Cookstown in the mid-1970s showing a large amount of lumber, both round and planed, stacked in groups. In 1945 Hector Smith took over the sawdust business established by his father-in-law, Robert J. McAfee. By 1946 Hector Smith's shop located on John Street was selling not just sawdust but also finished lumber, plywood, wood shingles, cement, and building hardware, and the business was renamed H.F. Smith Lumber. Hector was seriously injured in 1975 in a pedestrian accident, and the business was then taken over by his son Wally, and later his other son Don. In 1976 Wally and Don purchased the property located on the northwest corner of George and John Streets to further expand the business, and in 1978 they joined with Home Hardware. It wasn't until 2005 that, upon Don and Wally's retirement, the business left the family when it was sold to 25-year employee Neil Currie and his business partner Paul Dubé.
