Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 472-473:
Klie. The Klie family, so worthily represented in Colchester South by men of the highest integrity and public spirit, originated in Germany, the emigrant ancestor being Godfrey Klie, the grandfather of Henry and Albert Klie...
Henry Klie, son of Godfrey, accompanied the family to this country in 1855. In Germany he had wedded Louisa Duva, who was born in Oldendorf, Germany, May 26, 1826...
To Henry Klie and wife were born the following children: ... Henry is mentioned below...
Henry Klie, son of Henry and Louisa (Duva) Klie, and one of the enterprising farmers of Colchester South, was born at the Canadian "Soo," May 2, 1860, but he grew to manhood in the County of Essex. He remained with his parents on the Asa Wilcox farm, and continued to live at home and assist his father after the Knapp farm was purchased. After his father's death, Henry Klie and his brother Albert became joint owners of the home place, and carried it on. While the brothers were working together they erected substantial barns, and each put up a modern house. In 1902 Henry Klie sold his interest in the place, and bought the Timothy Shay farm, in Lots 66, 67 and 68, a 100-acre farm, and also sixty-seven acres in Lot 63, Concession 1. At the time of his purchase the property was in bad condition, but he set to work energetically to remedy this, and through his persistent efforts now has a fine farm, well equipped with all necessary buildings.
In politics Henry Klie is a Conservative. In religious belief he is a member of the Church of England, of which he has served for a term of eleven years as warden. In 1893 he married Ellen Adams, a daughter of Matthew Adams, and two sons and one daughter have been born of this union: Archibald, Robert and Beatrice. Mr. Klie is justly regarded as one of the leading men of the township, where he has borne so important a part in the development of the country, and he enjoys a host of friends.
ADAMS. Mrs. Henry Klie comes of a distinguished family of the States. Her great-grandfather, Edward Adams, was a near relative of John Quincy Adams, President of the United States. Joshua Adams, son of Edward and grandfather of Mrs. Klie, was born in Maryland, and came to the County of Essex, unmarried, about 1798. Being a shoemaker by trade, he found plenty of work, and followed that calling all his life, dying aged seventy-three years. He married Elizabeth Quick, who died aged seventy-two years. Their children were: Mary (deceased), who married John Ulch, of Gosfield; Matthew; Wretta (deceased), who married John Woodiwiss; Joshua, a farmer who lives in Gosfield, a farmer near Kingsville; and Rosa Ann, who married Rev. Alexander Scratch, of Leamington.
Matthew Adams was born April 13, 1823, in Colchester South, and there grew to manhood, at a time when educational advantages were limited. At the age of eighteen or twenty he began to farm, and also learned the trade of a shoemaker, keeping a shoe shop for thirty years. Fifty-fve years ago he purchased his first property, to which he added, and has a fine farm of fifty-four acres, which he has been farming for over thirty years. Mr. Adams married Hannah McCormick, a daughter of Matthew McCormick, and to them came children as follows: Jason, who lives at Oxley, married Alvira Huffman, and has one daughter, Frances; Josephine is at home; Alpheus, a farmer, living near Windsor, married Eliza Martin, and his children are: Ada, William, Forest, Lillian, Ora, Raymond, Carmen and Verda; Archibald, a physician of London, Ont., formerly of Kingsville, married Esther Adams, and has two children, Enid and Prosper; Ellen married Henry Klie; Francis is at home; Olive is at home. The father is a Conservative in politics, and in religion is a member of the Church of England.
