Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 85-87:
Rev. Alexander Scratch (Kratz), a retired minister of the Methodist Church, a direct descendant of one of the pioneer families of Essex County, and one of the most highly revered citizens of Leamington, was born in Gosfield township, Essex, July 18, 1826, son of Henry and Isabella (Wilkinson) Scratch.
     The name of Scratch is a corruption of Kratz, the change being of comparatively recent date...
     On Feb. 14, 1756, at Teutonhoofer, was born Leonhard Kratz... in 1776, at the age of twenty, he was a soldier in an army that came to America from Germany to help England quell the rebellion of her Colonies... In 1792, the Governor of Canada having offered grants of land to the U. E. Loyalists and other who had assisted Great Britain in the war, Leonhard Kratz and his family again became subject to the British King. The lot given him was No. 9, in Gosfield township, County of Essex, Ont., containing 200 acres, and this he exchanged with an old German for Lot No. 2, later purchasing No. 9, thus becoming the owner of 400 acres...
     To Leonhard and Mary (Munger) Kratz were born the following children, eleven in all: ... Henry, born in Gosfield, April 5, 1797, is mentioned below...
     Henry Scratch (Kratz) was born in Gosfield township, April 5, 1797, and his entire life was passed in his native township. For some years he was successfully engaged in the practice of medicine. In 1818 he joined the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and in 1847 he was ordained a Methodist minister. He was greatly beloved in the community, and he died universally regretted, Jan. 23, 1861. In Colchester, in 1817, he married Isabella Wilkinson, who was born May 25, 1798, daughter of John Wilkinson, a native of County Derry, Ireland, who came to Malden township in 1801, and died that fall. To Henry and Mrs. Scratch were born children as follows: (1) Peter, born May 6, 1818, married Sept. 11, 1838, Mary Lytle, who was born July 3, 1820, and died Nov. 28, 1854. Their five children were, Henry, Elizabeth, Nicholas, Thomas and Theodore...
