  • Notes 
    • MICHAEL B. BARNHARD, reeve of the township of Willoughby, was born in Alsace, then province of France, (but since the Franco-Prussian war a possession of Germany), on July 24th, 1832, and came to Canada with his parents, Adam and Margaret (Sauer) Barnhard, in 1834. The family settled in Bertie, about two miles west of New Germany, where the father carried on farming for about twelve years, when he died, his wife dying four years earlier. Our subject learned the blacksmith and wagonmaking business, and has carried on the same successfully for many years and up to the present time, in addition to farming. He located on his present farm in 1863. He was elected to the council of the township of Willoughby in 1871, and for several succeeding years. In 1882 he was elected reeve of the township, which honorable position he still retains. In the county council he has carefully watched the interests of his constituents, nor has he refused his vote and voice in aid of progress and improvement generally. He was married Feb. 1, 1858, to Ellen, daughter of Carson and Rebecca (Brown) Brundage, the former of Pennsylvanian and the latter of Canadian birth. They have a family of seven children, named : Rebecca, now wife of James Bradt, of Beamsville ; Maggie, now teaching school ; Lily, Jennie, Michael, Charles and Willie. The family attend the Methodist church. Mr. Barnhard is a member of the Masonic and Workmen fraternities, and is a Reformer in politics. He has been on the commission of the peace since 1876.
