In 1817, the arrival of several English families nearly doubled the population of the township. The members of this colony were Peter Taylor and his family, his brother John, a bachelor, Thomas Taylor, with a large family, Peter Cadwell and his family, together with his brothers, Richard, John and James, single men, two sisters, Margaret and Alice, and their mother, Mary Cadwell, Peter Gore and one son and two daughters. In all there were over thirty persons. Three only of these immigrants are now living—John Taylor, of Crooked Tree; Mary Keith (nee Taylor), of Keith's, and James Taylor, son of Thomas, now in Illinois.
