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...
