Address: 7218 Reesor Road

 

The David Whaley House at 7218 Reesor Road is important to the historic settlement pattern of Cedar Grove while also acting as one of the last reminders of the historic mill. This house was built on land gifted to Thomas Whaley from the British Crown in the early 1800s. The property was later divided between Thomas' two sons, Alexander and David Whaley. On David Whaley's eastern portion of the property stood both a sawmill and a millpond, where a bridge is now located. It was on this portion of the land that David Whaley built his house in approximately 1835. The house is believed to originally be a one-and-a-half storey, three-bay Georgian frame cottage. Significant modifications were applied to the original house in the mid-20th century. The house's historical foundation is seen today through the architectural form of the front portion of the house, the partial fieldstone foundation, and the original floorboards inside. The David Whaley House became a designated heritage property in 2004 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 4165 19th Avenue

 

The John Klein/James Bowman House at 4165 19th Avenue was built in 1844 and provides significant historical context for its association with the early Village of Almira. Built on land originally owned by Mathias Klein, John Klein inherited this land in 1844 and built this one-and-a-half storey frame house with a distinctive mill worker's cottage silhouette. The house as it stands now provides a well preserved example of a Georgian cottage, standing at five-bays across and two-bays deep. Klein sold this house to Benjamin Bowman in 1857 for 1,250 pounds, who owned the Almira Flour and Woolen Mill across the street and served as Almira's first postmaster. Bowman used this house as living space for himself and his family as well as housing millworkers. This house was also later occupied by Bowman's son, James Bowman, who operated a grocery and general store. The John Klein/James Bowman House became a designated heritage property in 2003 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 7632 Highway 7 East

 

The Reesor Tenant House stands at 7632 7 Highway East as a reminder of Markham's agricultural roots. This house is also telling of the vast land holdings the Reesor family held in Markham in the 19th century. The lot was purchased in 1830 by Abraham Reesor and it has been passed down to other Reesor family members over the years. Constructed in 1860, the building was originally a one-and-a-half storey Georgian cottage with Classic Revival features that had a one-and-a-half storey addition added to the rear. Clad in vertical wood plank and sitting on a fieldstone foundation, this house provides contextual significance for the surrounding village of Locust Hill. The Reesors themselves did not actually live on this property, but instead rented it out to a series of farmers. The last Reesor tenant was Jonathan Jarvis who then purchased the farm. The Reesor Tenant House became a designated heritage property in 2004 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 6066 Elgin Mills Road East

 

The Joseph Barkey Farmhouse at 6066 Elgin Mills Road East is notable for its fieldstone construction. The German-Mennonite Barkey family emigrated from Pennsylvania sometime between 1802 and 1815, integrating well into the Mennonite community already growing in Markham. The Barkey family went on to be successful farmers highly involved in the Mennonite Church, in particular the Wideman Mennonite Church. Constructed in 1864, this house remains as one of the few 19th century stone dwellings in Markham, and is of importance due to its excellent masonry of evenly split fieldstones on the front faade as well as the eastern addition. The remaining facades also are constructed of fieldstone, but of irregular shape and size. The western addition was added at a later date designed to provide a separate dwelling for Barkey's grandparents. Joseph's second daughter Mary married Tillman Reesor in 1880 and they lived on the property until Reesor's death in 1886. The Farmhouse stayed in the Barkey Reesor family for five generations and occupied the property for more than 170 years. The Joseph Barkey Farmhouse became a designated heritage property in 1994 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: Buttonville Lot 13, Conc. 4, moved to 1 Millbrook Gate

 

The John Stiver House at 1 Millbrook Gate offers an excellent example of a vernacular Georgian frame cottage from the mid-19th century in the hamlet of Buttonville. Originally located on Lot 13 of Concession 4 slightly south on Woodbine from where it is located now, this one-and-a-half storey cottage is constructed of wood and has a medium-pitched gable end roof. The John Stiver house was constructed approximately 1850 by John Stiver Jr., son of Pennsylvanian-German Berczy settler John Nicholas Stiver, who is considered the first child of European origin to be born in Markham. John Stiver Jr. was given a portion of Lot 13 from Captain G. Schuetze when Stiver married his daughter, Mary Anne, where he then built a log cabin that his family lived in until the frame cottage that stands now was constructed. In the 1980s this house was moved slightly north to its present location to protect it from demolition. In 1998 the John Stiver House became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 8992 Reesor Road, moved to 3 Heritage Corners Lane

 

The Joseph Marr house offers historical richness to the Markham community, acting as a reminder of its United Empire Loyalists settler roots. This one-and-a-half storey vernacular Georgian building is constructed of local Markham brick and consists of a rectangular plan. It was originally built on land received by the Marr family in 1809 located at 8992 Reesor Road, gifted by the Crown when they remained loyal to the British during the American Revolution. The Joseph Marr House was built in 1848 and in 1857 he sold the property to Christian Reesor, a prominent local landowner and it remained in the Reesor family until 1920. The house was moved in 2005 to 3 Heritage Corners Lane in the Markham Heritage Estates due to the construction of what was historically known as the Markham Bypass now known as York Regional Road 48, the Donald Cousens Parkway. In 2011 the Joseph Marr House became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 7134 Major Mackenzie Drive East

 

The John B. Miller House at 7134 Major Mackenzie Drive East represents not just a rare example of a fieldstone bank house in Markham but also of a house constructed to fit within a natural slope. This Georgian vernacular fieldstone dwelling was constructed approximately 1855 and is situated on the north side of Major Mackenzie Drive East. This house is unique as it fits into a natural slope so that from the western end it appears to be a one-and-a-half storey house, but it is two-and-a-half storeys from the eastern end. The distinctive white quoin treatment around the window and door openings is a Scottish detail, which suggests a Scottish connection to this house's construction. John B. Miller was the son of American immigrants, Jacob Miller and Phoebe Gould, who settled in Markham in 1796. The Miller family included both farmers and founding members of the Ninth Line Baptist Church. In 2012 the John B. Miller House became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 7706 and 7708 Kennedy Road, changed to 7710 Kennedy Road

 

The Benjamin Milliken House is located at 7710 Kennedy Road. This house provides both significant cultural and historical context to what remains of the hamlet of Hagerman Corners. This three-bay front faade, two-storey bricked house was built approximately 1855 by Major Benjamin Milliken in a Georgian traditional style The house was originally listed as 7706/7708 Kennedy Road but has changed to 7710 Kennedy Road over the years. Milliken leased the property for many years before purchasing 100 acres of the east portion of Lot 5, Concession 5 in 1853. Both its quality of design and workmanship along with its full two storeys indicates Milliken's stature in the community. Milliken is significant for his military career; he served in the York Militia during the War of 1812 and again during the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. Milliken was involved in the local community as he was both an active supporter by providing land for the local school as well as the host for many agricultural fairs on his farm during the 1860s. After being vacant for numerous years, this house was restored and then converted into a pub and restaurant. The Benjamin Milliken House is one of only six heritage buildings known to belong to and remain in the area of the former hamlet of Hagerman Corners, and in 1994 it became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 9765-9767 Kennedy Road, changed to 11 Tannis Street

 

The Henry Pingle House at 11 Tannis Street provides an example of a mid-19th century house which underwent a major remodel in the first few decades of the 20th century. Constructed approximately 1849, this house was originally a single storey, bricked Ontario Regency cottage. Henry Pingle built this home when he retired from farming and became more active in St. Philip's Lutheran Church. The Pingle family was part of the Berczy German Pennsylvanian settlers who helped establish Markham in the early 1800s. In 1913 the house was purchased by George Weatherill, who, in 1924, remodelled the house to its current form. This one-and-a-half storey house reflects the American Arts and Crafts Movement with stucco covering and a heavy stucco porch. This house was originally accessed through 9765-9767 Kennedy Road, but with the creation of the subdivision around this house, it is now is accessed through 11 Tannis Street. Together with the Stiver Tenant House and the Vincent Wagg House, the Henry Pingle House is a reminder of the first farming families who helped settle Markham. In 2005, it became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 12 Williamson Road, changed to 56 Miramar Drive

 

The Clendennen Cemetery at 56 Miramar Drive stands as the last resting place for the members of the Clendennen family, one of Markham's first pioneer families. John Clendennen was granted Lot 17 on Concession 8 from the Crown in 1804, where the family built a farm and stayed for many years. This small, 12 feet by 12 feet cemetery was created some time in the 19th century, with the earliest marker dated 1855. The most prominent features of this cemetery are the five marble headstones that date to the mid-19th century. Buried here are William and Susanna Clendennen, and their three daughters; Margaret Johnson, Magelene Holden, and Mary McKinnon. It is believed that other family members are also buried here. Due to changing city planning, the address for this cemetery has changed from 12 Williamson St to 56 Miramar Drive despite not moving locations. The Clendennen Cemetery became a designated heritage property in 2004 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: Yonge Street Lot 40, Conc. 1 South of 16th Avenue, moved to 6 Wismer Place

 

The Gapper-Duncan House holds both historical and architectural significance to the Markham community, leading, in part, to its relocation to 6 Wismer Place in Markham's Heritage Estates subdivision. This house was constructed on Yonge Street, south of 16th Avenue, in 1828 for Richard Gapper, a veteran of the Napoleonic Wars. The house was nicknamed 'Froglands' by Gapper's sister, Mary O'Brien, when she detailed the construction of the house in her journals as it was close to the swamp. Mary O'Brien's journals are now housed at the Archives of Ontario and provide great insight into early-settler life in York County. The Gappers represented the second wave of settlers in the region, wealthy Englishmen looking to imitate their British elitism in Canada which resulted in the 1837 Upper Canadian Rebellion against the provincial government led by William Lyon Mackenzie. When Gapper eventually returned to England in 1852, he sold his property to William Duncan. The house remains one of the most significant examples of Regency-influenced Georgian architecture in Markham, sitting at two storeys with a three-bay faade and a hipped roof. The front entrance is an excellent example of Georgian architecture with both sidelights and pilasters flanking a six-panel door, and a tent-roofed porch along three sides of the house. This house has moved locations twice; first in the 1950s to Duncan Ave, and then once more to its present location on Wismer Place. The Gapper-Duncan House became a designated heritage property in 1998 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 53 Main Street South

 

The First Markham Post Office at 53 Main Street South is one of the last surviving examples of cottage construction in the former Village of Markham. Built in 1828, this one-and-a-half storey Pioneer Georgian-style building is constructed of hand-hewn timber. The Post Office is covered in stucco and decorative board but was originally covered in wooden clapboard. The sash windows on the east and south portions of the house have the 12-by-12 small panes of glass which are reminiscent of the original windows. The building was initially constructed not only to serve as the first Post Office for the Village, but also to house the living quarters of the first Post Master, James Johnston. The First Markham Post Office is being used once again as a commercial space, now as a restaurant, and became a designated heritage property 1979 under the Ontario Heritage Act.

Address: 288 John Street

 

The John Welsh House, often referred to as 'Thornlea', still stands as a cultural landmark in Thornhill at 288 John Street. Constructed between 1855 and 1858, Thornlea is set on a fieldstone foundation originally with a two-storey rectangular plan in shape. The brick house was built by John Welsh, a farmer, who had purchased the land from James F. Smith in 1848. Welsh sold the property to his son, William Welsh in 1876. This property remained in the Welsh family until 1933 when it was purchased by Charles Luther Burton to use as a summer home. Burton was the president of the Robert Simpson Ltd. Simpsons at the time. Descendants of the Burton family remained in the house until 1973 when it was purchased by the Township of Markham. In 1994 the John Welsh House became a designated heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act. Thornlea is now located inside of a shopping plaza and is currently a restaurant.

Address: 9251 Highway 48, moved to 11 Heritage Corners Lane

 

The Ambrose Noble House was constructed approximately 1848. This two-storey, five-bay front faade, bricked Georgian-style house is unique in its design in that it was built using a triple-brick construction method. This is unique to the region and period as most houses were frame-built at the time. This house was constructed for the Noble family, who relocated to Markham from Massachusetts before the outbreak of the War of 1812. On this property also stood the Noble Tannery, which brought the family wealth and affluence within the community. Originally located at the corner of Highway 48 and 16th, this house was relocated in 2002 to 11 Heritage Corners Lane in the Markham Heritage Estates subdivision to protect it from when the roads were widening. When it was relocated, the front porch was removed and it was restored to match its original appearance. The Ambrose Noble House offers unique historical insight into Markham's early industrial culture and became a designated heritage property in 1983.
