Show on Map Get DirectionsThe present Davenport family homestead was built by William John Davenport for his family in or about the year 1902.
The Davenports were the first settlement family in the Township of Flos. William and Benjamin Davenport, brothers, and William’s wife, Sarah entered Upper Canada from the United States about 1810. After a period of several years in the southern part of the colony (some of which was spent at Amherstberg) the Davenports settled in Flos Township in 1819, in conjunction with the Wilberforce Street settlement of Black refugees. From that date to the present, the family has never lost its association with the Township of Flos, and particularly the community which is now Hillsdale.
