- Residence*: 1833; Clarke Twp., Crandell's Corners, Durhamn Co., Ontario; "The settlement of Newcastle proper began in 1833 when Stephan Crandell opened a tavern in the forest. This was near the present King Ave and Mill Street intersection. In 1835 he was joined by Ezra Shelley who opened up a shop nearby. This little settlement became known as Crandell’s Corners and about the same time another community to the south, Port Bond Head, began to grow. In 1839 work began on a pier by the Bond Head Harbour Company. The directors envisioned a large community with a busy harbour, but it never overtook Crandell’s Corners. Crandell’s Corners, soon to be renamed Newcastle, was strategically located on the Danforth Road (present day Highway # 2). This was the main east west thoroughfare. Also, some settlers felt the lake marshes were conducive to fever and sickness and stayed away from the lake front. In 1851 the two communities, Bond Head and Newcastle amalgamated as the Village of Newcastle. Although Bond Head retained its original name, in common usage it was referred to as Port Newcastle or Newcastle Harbour." from Village of Newcastle - http://villageofnewcastle.ca/community/history/

- Death*: circa 1870; Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; The death of John Nix, Jr. appears to have happened in or just before 1870. There is no death registration or note in the 1871 Census about it, but John Wright Proctor, last owner of Proctor House, says that it was "1870 approximately" when the events occurred that resulted in the infamous Proctor House Ghost. When John Nix, Jr. died the family was indebeted to John Edward Proctor, probably due to the mortgages re the wharf at Gosport some years before. The story goes that Proctor would not release John Nix's body to his family until the debt was paid and as a result, John Nix haunts Proctor House. The imminently believable Procotr family certanly believed they had seen bright lights above the house many times, which were taken to be the ghost of John Nix. These lights were later thought to be due to gas from the creek and low areas north of the house, but the legend of the Proctor House ghost persists. (Dan Buchanan, Oct 7 2017)2
