Romantic Kent, Victor Lauriston, 1952, [The Tale of Thamesville], pp. 373-378:
A gracious and observant English traveler, Sir Richard Bonnycastle, in the summer of 1845 put up for a night at Freeman's Inn, conducted by Norman L. Freeman, near the later site of Thamesville...Freeman's Inn was west of the later limits of Thamesville, though apparently not as far west as Cornwall's Creek, where a settlement had sprung up about the mill...
...Because of the mill, Cornwall's, a little to the west, was the business centre in the early days. There, in 1834, the Thamesville post office was established, with Nathan Cornwall as postmaster...
The Jackman, Sanford, Hubbell, Wallace and Ingall families were among the early Thamesville settlers...
Thamesville quite early developed a cultural life all its own. As early as 1887, folk flocked to see traveling shows and stock productions at the Ferguson Opera House. Thamesville's own dramatic group, working on Little Theatre lines in an era before the name had been heard of, produced its own plays, in which such talent as W. R. Davies, George Hady, Nate Cornwall, Billy Albertson and Lyda Duffies took more or less stellar roles...

Thamesville Herald, Thursday 7 October 1909
Hubbell Reunion - ...
Prindle Hubbell, his wife and four children, came to Canada in the year 1795, and purchased about 125 acres of land from Jacob Grant, being the front part of Lot 12, western boundary in the Township of Howard in the county of Kent. There were five children born to them after they settled in Howard Township.
...
His fourth daughter Annie married Nathan Cornwall, grandfather of Nate K. and Miss Rose of Thamesville. They had four sons and one daughter, Hamilton, Matthew, Joshua, Wellington and Louisa.

Chatham Gleaner 28 March 1848
Died - On the morning of 20th ult. (after an illness of only a few hours), of inflamation of the brain, Nathan, son of Nathan Cornwall, Esq, of Thamesville. By the untimely decease of this young man, his family has been plunged into the deepest affliction; he being cut down in the bloom and vigor of youth, just as he was springing forth to the strength and vigor of manhood. He was an amiable and dutiful son, a kind and affectionate brother, and the loved companion of a large circle of sorrowing friends. But we counsel the afflicted family to mourn not, as those without hope, having a confident assurance that he has gone to the blissful land, where sorrow, pain and death are never know. [followed by poem]

Chatham Gleaner 6 Feb 1848
Obituary - It becomes our melancholy duty to herold the decease of Nathan Cornwall, Esq., formerly Member of the Provincial Parliament, for the County of Kent, and for many years a Magistrate in this District. He departed this life on the 21st ult. after an illness of eight days; deeply regretted by all who knew him: He was an affectionate husband, a kind and faithful friend: no one ever applied to him for assistance in vain. As a public officer, or, as private individual he performed his duty faithfully and efficiently, and he has left a large circle of friends to mourn their irretrievable loss; but we counsel his afflicted family to mourn not as those without hope, but to view his departure as a transition to a purer and a happier state of existence; let them prepare to meet him in those regions of beatitude reserved for the faithful, where their earthly pilgrimage is finished, let them prepare to join that happy throng which surround the throne of Jehovah, with which we have a confident hope he is now singing the song of Moses and the lamb. - Communicated.
