2857 Colonel William Ketcheson was the oldest child of William Ketcheson and Mary Rull. He had 7 brothers, Henry, John, Thomas, Benjamin, Elijah, James, and one brother who cannot be traced as having been in Canada; and 3 sisters, Sarah, Deborah, and Phoebe. William and his brother, Henry, wer born before their parents moved from Nova Scotia to Upper Canada (Ontario).

Colonel William Ketcheson married Nancy, daughter of John Roblin, and settled in Sidney Township, County of Hastings. The genealogy of his branch of the family reveals two facts which are unprecedented; first, there were 15 children and all grew up, married, and raised families; and second, the parents lived together as husband and wife for 72 years on the very spot where they settled in 1800. Their pioneer home was several miles back from the Front, and in the early days Colonel Ketcheson came down every Saturday through the woods to Belleville for supplies, returning with such quantities of flour, pork, and other provisions upon his back as would be enough to break the heart of any great grandson of today. Later, he constructed a scow and came down the Moira River. The scow was kept on the river near the present villageof Foxboro.

When the War of 1812 broke out, William went to his brother, Thomas, who was cutting underbrush, and told him to drop the brushhook and get his musket. Four of the brothers went to Kingston and served during the War. Elijah, the youngest of the four, although 17 years old was promoted to sergeant's rank. William Ketcheson was made a Colonel of the 4th Hastings Militia in 1838, following the Rebellion of 1837-38.

COLONEL WILLIAM KETCHESON

"It is with deep regret that we announce the death of Colonel William Ketcheson of Sidney, which sad event took place at his residence on the 30th of June 1874. Few men were better known or more highly respected. From boyhood he had taken an active part in public life. During the troubles of 1812-1813 he was foremost in organizing and maintaining the Militia and took his share in the vicissitudes of citizen-soldier life. He passed away in the 93rd year of a ripe old age, leaving behind a larger nmber of descendants than most men. From authentic sources we learn that Mr. Ketcheson had 16 children, 85 grandchildren, 189 great-grandchildren and 7 great-great-grandchildren, making a total to 295. Of these 42 have died leaving 253 living descendants. By his death the county has lost one of its oldest inhabitants and the country one of its most loyal sons.

Obituary - Colonel William Ketcheson

It is with deep regret that we announce the death of Colonel William Ketcheson of Sidney Township which sad event took place at his residence on the 30th of June 1877.

Few men were better known or more highly respected. From boyhood, he had taken an active part in Public life. During the troubles of 1812 and 1813 he was foremost in organizing and maintaining the militis, and took his share in the vicissitudes of a citizen soldier's life. He has passed away at the ripe old age of 95 years leaving behind him a large number of descendants than most men.

From authentic sources we learn that Mr Ketcheson had 15 children, 85 grandchildren 139 great grandchildren and 6 great great grandchildren, making a total of 245. Of this number 42 have died, leaving 203 living descendants. By his death this County has lost one of its oldest inhabitants and the County one of its most loyal sons.

Colonel Ketcheson took a deep interest in anything that concerned the welfare of Canada and especially the County in which he lived, and whether in the Township or County Council, or at meetings called to consider any Public question, his advice was always sought and highly appreciated. He was a man of sterling, whose life was guided by principle and not by expediency; meet him where you would he was always the same, his word of encouragement and material assistance when required has cheered and helped many a desponding one.

In early life he became a Christian and united with the Wesleyan Methodist Church in whose prosperity, growing usefulness, and power he took a deep interest. His connection with that church was life-long. He held many official positions in connection with the Wesleyan Church and was highly esteemed by the ministry and members of the other churches, "for his work's sake."

He was a man of very temperate habits and enjoyed through life the blessings which followed such a course. Having lived well, he died well; surrounded by his large family, and at peace with God and man, the noble old man calmly went to sleep, and he was not, for God had taken him by the hand. Our County has lost one of its most valued inhabitants, our Country one of her most loyal Sons, and the Church one of her most worthy members.
