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.
