- About 1778, Finlay Malcolm went to Penobscot, Maine (now called Castine). Here Finlay was a pioneer settler, ship’s captain, active Tory and eventually an evacuee to Nova Scotia. At Castine, he married Tryphena Wardwell, born in York, Maine. At the time of the American revolution, Finlay remained loyal to the British. In 1783, as a loyalist, he removed to St. Andrews, New Brunswick. Here he received 100 acres of land from the British which he farmed. He also owned a trading vessel which he used in trade between Scotland and North America.
- In 1798, Finlay Malcolm Sr. and family (15 children) set sail for Upper Canada from New Brunswick. For the first 3-4 years he farmed in the township of Oakland, Ontario [Brant County]. In 1802, he took a patent on his eventual home in the bush where Scotland village stands today. This is the Garden Wall home now owned by Jen and Ed Vander Velden.
