The Nevins family farmed on the east half of Lot 12, Con 3, Osgoode. In 1843,
Francis Nevins inadvertently cleared several acres of the neighbouring Jordan
farm (west half of Lot 12). The record of the amicable settlement of this problem
can be found on microfilm #TP-2 at the Osgoode Township museum.
