Child 1: James Knight Goold

  • Name:

  • James Knight Goold

  • Sex:

  • Male

  • Spouse:

  • Charlotte De Moll Berczy (1830-1909)

  • Note:

  • After the death of its builder, Richard Tennant in 1878, his widow Caroline sold the house "Grey Gables" to Lt. Col. James Knight Goold. Goold, an officer in the British army, noticed the octagonal home when visiting his family in nearby Brantford, Ontario. He became so attached to the quaint house and the surrounding scenic view that he bought it from Caroline, treasuring it through its "lovely maturity." Goold would have been a familiar figure to passers-by with his long white beard and a blanket over his knees as he sat outside on the piazza on warm days. His dignified presence and loving attention to his special adopted home contributed to the air of graciousness in Mount Pleasant that had begun decades before. Col. Goold's son Albert carried on the Goold family name in the village and the family enterprises including shipping grain and operating a feed and coal supply store.

    Lt. Col. James Knight Goold was Senior Paymaster of the British Army. Goold is said to have been a guest at the house when in Mount Pleasant on military duties and declared he wanted to live there, which he did in 1882. His wife was Charlotte de Moll Berczy, daughter of the first postmaster at York (Toronto). Goold was "a splendid type of the old school, courtly in his bearing, affable and generous." He died at age 93, and is buried in All Saints Cemetery.
