        History

        Ira Chadsey was born on February 10, 1828, in Picton, Prince Edward County, Ontario.

        He was an early settler and an eccentric farmer who built stone cairns at the back of the 215-acres property claiming they would guide him home in the afterlife when he returned as a white horse. A century later, the story is still being told and a winery that opened on this territory is named By Chadsey’s Cairns.

        In 1855, he married Roxy L. Burlingham (1828–1898). He died in a barn fire on July 16, 1905, in Picton, Prince Edward County, Ontario.
