William D. Mickle, who passed away in October, 1903, was a successful farmer and dairyman of Wallaceburg, Ont. Although he only came to the city in 1902, and was one of the new residents, he stood high in the estimation of the community.
Mr. Mickle was born at Chatham Gore, Ont., in 1857, a son of John H. and Ann (Little) Mickle, of the County of Essex, Ont., and Chatham Gore, respectively. By occupation the father was a farmer. He removed to the County of Kent prior to his marriage, and made his home in that county the remainder of his days, becoming reeve and councilman of Chatham township. His death occurred at the home of our subject, in January, 1902, when he was seventy-eight years of age, and his remains were tenderly interred in the Little burying ground at Chatham Gore. The mother remains on the old homestead, now aged seventy-one years. In 1898 she and her husband located in Wallaceburg but after his death she preferred to live upon her farm. Both were consistent members of the Presbyterian Church. The following children were born to John H. and Ann Mickle: William D.; George L., a farmer of Chatham Gore; Albert, an official in the custom house at Lambton, Ont.; Charles, a farmer on the old homestead; Louisa, who married George Forshee, a farmer of Camden, Ont.; Sarah, who is with her mother; Edwin, deceased; and Russell, who is with his brother Charles on the old homestead...
