Asa's parents ran an inn in Manchester, Vermont. Before starting his first trip to Canada in 1791, Asa Weller consulted with his father-in-law, Colonel Marsh, concerning the geography of that portion of the continent . . .

Asa had business to settle and property to sell before emigrating with his family (in 1793). Asa started his boat portaging services shortly after he got settled in Carrying Place. He made it possible to transport bateaux from the Bay of Quinte to Weller's Bay, using his low slung four-wheeled wagon.
