| Notes |
In the 1875 Historical Atlas of Brant County, H. Conkwright is on Lot 17, Concession XIV, 25 Acres, Township of Burford South, Brant County
(From looking at the Atlas, I would say H. Cronkright has 50 Acres, the north west quarter, and G. Cronkright has 25 acres, the east part of the the south west quarter)
From John Cardiff's Nornet
