Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers, 1905, p. 494-495:
Charles Mickle, who is one of the prominent citizens of Malden township, County of Essex, a member of the municipal council and a prosperous farmer, is a descendant of one of the pioneer settlers of this locality.
William Mickle, the great-grandfather of Charles, was a native of Aryshire, Scotland, and in early manhood came to work in the docks along the lake front in the County of Essex, at his trade of ship carpenter, making his home at Amherstburg. His death occurred in that city. In Chatham he married Hannah Turner, who received a pension after his death, as the widow of a soldier in the English army during the Revolution; her death occurred at the home of her son William. Her husband built a log house in Amherstburg, just opposite the present Echo office, and there he reared his family of children: William, born in 1793; Hannah died unmarried; John; Lucy married Thomas Brush; and James.
William Mickle (2), grandfather of our subject, occupied the old Elliot house for a short time and then bought a 200 acre farm on the lake shore, in Malden township, and there resided some twelve years. In the spring of 1838 he bought 160 acres of land on Lot 11, on the river front from a Mr. Hawes. This land was originally owned by Simon Girty, the renegade, and he was buried on the place. Mr. Mickle was a ropemaker by trade, but did not follow that occupation after 1838, giving all his time to farming, at which he was quite successful, and he became a large landowner, having some 500 acres of land in Malden township, besides a 400-acre tract at Rond Eau, in Harwich township, County of Kent, and for military services he received a Government grant of 200 acres, near Wallaceburg, having served as captain of a local military company, and being present at the taking of the schooner "Ann." He also engaged in lumbering and got out timber with which to build the blockhouse on Bois Blanc Island. Mr. Mickle led a very busy life, accomplishing much in the space of his alloted sixty-three years. In Colchester South he married Sarah Brush, who survived him until 1870, aged sixty-nine years. They had these children born to them: William C., who lived on his father's farm, but now is a resident of Colchester; John H., who came into possession of the Wallaceburg land, and resided there until his death in 1902; Wilhemina, deceased, who married William Bartlett, of Amherstburg; Thomas, deceased, who lived in Malden township; George L.; Mary, deceased, who married William Johnson, of Chatham; Alexander, born July 10, 1838, who has the south half of the River Front farm, and has always taken a prominent part in municipal affairs, having been reeve for fifteen years, and councillor for five years; and Amelia, wife of Thomas Woodbridge, of Gosfield South township.
George L. Mickle, father of our subject and son of William (2), was born Sept. 9, 1832, in Malden township, and can still recall some of the events of the Rebellion of 1837-38, particularly the quartering of the soldiers in their home on the lake shore. He was about six years old when the family removed to the River Front, and there he has ever since made his home, having for many years owned the north one-half of Lot 11, upon which he has erected a substantial brick house, and all the farm buildings. Politically Mr. Malden has always been allied with the Reform party, and in years past served several times in the township council. He has also been school trustee, and for twenty-seven years was secretary and treasurer of the school in the vicinity of his home. George L. Mickle married Louisa Little, of Wallaceburg, and to this union children were born as follows: Sarah, the wife of Nathan Brush; Charles, William, who now carries on the homestead farm; and Wilhelmina, wife of O. B. Marshall, of Prescott, Arizona.
Charles Mickle was born April 25, 1862, on the homestead farm, and there was reared to manhood, receiving his education first in the little log school house, and later in the stone building which replaced the earlier temple of learning. At the age of twenty-three years, Mr. Mickle came to that part of Malden township known as Knapp's Island, beginning on a fifty-acre farm, and later purchasing an adjoining fifty acres. Here he has made many improvements, erected substantial buildings, and has a very attractive home.
Mr. Mickle married Mary C. Smith, daughter of Charles Smith, of Malden township, and they have four children: Mary Louise, Ray, Ruth and George L. Mr. Mickle is a Reformer, and present president of the Reform Association of Malden, and ever since becoming a voter has taken a lively interest in public matters and has proven how useful a first-class citizen can be to a community. At present he is a valued member of the township council.
