William FERGUSON was born in Scotland in 1807 and arrived in Nova Scotia in 1828. He worked on the Uniacke farm at Mount Uniacke, N.S. and then purchased part of the Archibald Carr land at Moose Brook about 1839. In 1855 he built a house of sawn lumber. He brought seeds and cuttings from Scotland and it is believed that many orchards of Hants County owe their origins to the Ferguson Orchard (2.)
