Notes
From "Two Hundred Years With The Siders" compiled by Harold Sider and Ron Sider -
John was born in Bertie Township, but moved to Wainfleet as a young man with others of his family. His farm was the north half of Lot 30, Concession 5, just north of his brother Christian. John was noted for being a very frugal man, yet not as successful as his brothers. Around 1870, his farm became the property of his brother Christian, possibly because of financial difficulties. However, John continued to live on the farm in a small house on the west side of the Perry Road for the rest of his life. He was a member of the Tunker community.
