William Young (1956-1945), son of Ira and Caroline Young, at his home on Lot 33 Concession 7, Chaffey Township, Muskoka, circa 1940.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

William Young was born in North Gwillimbury, Ontario, and came to Muskoka with his father, Ira, sometime around 1878. He married Ellen Thompson, daughter of William and Catharine Thompson on May 5, 1887, in the Village of Huntsville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is pictured here at his home on Lot 33 Concession 7, Chaffey Township. In 1936, this property had 99 acres, and all or part of it was sold to Clifton G. Dyer, who built the Dyer Memorial in memory of his deceased wife, Betsy. The 42-foot stone pylon, constructed by stonemason Herbert McKenney, is surrounded by 10 acres of landscaped grounds, ponds, and walkways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
