Malott. The record of this family in the Dominion of Canada begins with the migration of three brothers and two sisters, Peter, Theodore, David, Catherine and Delilah Malott, who made their way to Detroit soon after the close of the Revolutionary War, in 1783...
     Peter Malott was married at Detroit to Mary Jones... the young couple settled on Grosse Ile, living there for about one year, when an old soldier had a U.E. right in the township of Gosfield offered to dispose of same for a cow. At that time cows were scarce, and of considerable value, but after due consideration the trade was made, and Peter Malott, with his wife and child, came to the new holding, Lots 4 and 5, on the lake, where they passed the remainder of their days...
     Peter and Mary (Jones) Malott were the parents of six children, namely: ... Ann, born July 1, 1801, married John Williams, and one of their sons, Peter, resides in Leamington, Ontario...

Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers, Toronto, 1905, p. 278-280:
Thomas Williams, the third of the name, belongs to one of the oldest pioneer families in the County of Essex, and his father was one of the first settlers in Gosfield. The members of this family have always been farmers, and Mr. Williams is now living on the original homestead granted his father, on Lot 273, Talbot Road South, where he himself was born March 17, 1839.
     The first of the family to come to America was his grandfather, Thomas Williams (1), who came from Wales and located in the State of Pennsylvania before the Revolution. He was a Loyalist, and one of those who left the States and went to Canada when the war broke out. He died in Colchester South, County of Essex, Ont., and his wife Mary afterward made her home with her grandson, Thomas, in Gosfield North, where her death occurred in 1859. They reared a large family as follows: Thomas (2); James; John; Charles; George; Nancy, wife of Francis Neville; and Sarah, wife of John Bottom, of Gosfield township. Both daughters left families. None of this generation are living.
