Samuel Umphrey Residence
Samuel Umphrey Residence
(c. 1871)
Discover the captivating history of the Samuel Umphrey Residence, a true architectural treasure in Uxbridge. Built in 1871 by Samuel and Elizabeth Umphrey, this striking Victorian Gothic home stands as a reminder of both the artistry and ambition of its time.
From the moment you see it, the house leaves a lasting impression with its charming decorative details. The delicate frieze on the verandah and the ornate bargeboard on the gable ends are classic features of the era, offering a glimpse into the craftsmanship and design sensibilities of the late 19th century.
But the story of this home is more than just its beauty—it’s also about the people who lived within its walls. Samuel Umphrey, alongside his brother-in-law R. P. Harman, made a lasting impact on Uxbridge’s business community. The two entrepreneurs purchased a planing mill and sash/door factory on Bascom Street, further cementing their presence in the town’s industrial and commercial growth.
Samuel’s career began as a merchant in Udora, but he transitioned seamlessly into Uxbridge’s growing manufacturing sector. By 1873, he had taken on a leadership role as a director at the Uxbridge Cabinet Organ Company. His dedication and vision saw him rise through the ranks, eventually serving as president and manager of the company. Under his guidance, the business evolved into the Uxbridge Piano and Organ Company by the late 1880s, adapting to the changing musical and economic landscape of the time.
The Samuel Umphrey House is more than just a home—it is a symbol of Uxbridge’s entrepreneurial spirit, its architectural heritage, and the individuals whose vision helped shape the community. Its Gothic elegance, paired with the remarkable story of Samuel Umphrey, ensures that this residence continues to hold an important place in Uxbridge’s history.

The Methodist Parsonage
The Methodist Parsonage: A Historic Home at 49 Second Avenue, Uxbridge
At the corner of Second Avenue and Dominion Street stands a house with deep roots in Uxbridge’s history—the Methodist Parsonage, now recognized as part of the United Church. More than just a residence, this home has long symbolized faith, fellowship, and the strength of community ties.
This photo taken in 2025 shows the house as seen from the corner of Dominion Street and Second Avenue.
A Beginning in 1878
In 1878, the trustees of the Methodist Parsonage acquired the property from Joseph Gould, a key figure in Uxbridge’s early development. They commissioned the construction of a red brick home, designed with both elegance and purpose. Its striking six gothic-style windows and a sweeping verandah gave it a sense of grandeur, fitting for a home connected to the spiritual and social life of the town.
.
This photo taken in 2022 shows the house as seen from the corner of Dominion Street and Second Avenue.
Changes Through the Years
Like many historic homes, the Methodist Parsonage has evolved over time. The once expansive verandah was reduced in size, and the rich red brick exterior was eventually painted yellow and now white. Decorative features that once highlighted its Victorian charm—such as gingerbread trim, roof finials, shutters, and tall chimneys—were removed. Yet despite these changes, the home has retained its historic character and continues to reflect the spirit of its era.
.
The above photo courtesy of Uxbridge – Scugog Historic Homes and Heritage Buildings by Paul Arculus and J. Peter Hvidsten was taken from Joseph Gould’s photo album and shows what the Methodist Parsonage looked like in 1899.
A House of Resilience and Community
The Methodist Parsonage has seen many seasons of life—welcoming families, hosting gatherings, and standing quietly through times of both celebration and sorrow. While the details of its architecture have shifted, its role as a symbol of resilience and fellowship remains strong. It embodies the values of the Methodist and later United Church community: connection, service, and shared history.

A Living Reminder
Today, 49 Second Avenue still carries the charm of its past. Though altered, the home’s essence endures, offering a reminder of the people who lived within its walls and the community it served. It stands not just as a historic house, but as a living reminder of Uxbridge’s heritage, bridging the gap between the town’s past and present.

Brock Street West Uxbridge, looking north
The above photo shows Brock Street West (North Side) as it appears today. In this photo we see the Bowling Alley and Arcade on the second floor of the building on the left with the lower level home to the Preston Gallery, Coldwell Banker R.M.R. Real Estate, Uxbridge Community Cleaning and JB Variety Store. The building in the middle is the Post Office.
The photo below taken in 1914 shows the Post Office (still under construction). The clock tower was later taken down and replaced with a taller one (see next photo). Beside the Post Office is a liquor store and a Massey-Harris Farm Implement store.
The photo below taken during the 1968 Santa Claus Parade shows the post office with the taller clock tower. After the new post office was opened in 1969 the town purchased the old post office from the government. However, later with appeals from the community the town sold the post office along with two other municipal properties and in 1971 they were demolished to make room for the building we see in the top photo.
Captured during the December 1961 Santa Claus parade, the photo below shows two houses in the background, which were later replaced by the Post Office. Wixan’s Bridge and a parking lot now occupy the space where the billboard once stood.
In the image above, you can see the Michael O’Neil home on the right, with his blacksmith shop situated on the left.
In this vintage photograph from the early 1900s, the Uxbridge Bank is seen transitioning along Brock St. In the background, we catch a glimpse of the house owned by Michael O’Neil. Today, this corner is occupied by the CIBC bank.

Uxbridge History •
March 27, 2024
Brock Street East (South Side)
Brock Street East (South Side)
The heart of Uxbridge has always been its downtown, and few streets capture the community’s character and resilience like Brock Street East. Here are two photographs—one from 1970 and another from 2022—we can step back in time and watch over half a century of transformation unfold.
A Bustling Scene in 1970
The first image provides a window into the past, revealing the bustling storefronts lining the south side of Brock Street, just west of Bascom Street, in 1970.
-
Canadian Tire proudly anchors the left side of the scene,
-
followed by Davie Rexall Drug Store,
-
and the newly reconstructed Moore’s Pro Hardware Store, standing tall after rising from the ashes of a devastating fire.
Between these shops, a vacant space once housed Uxbridge Cleaners and Dyers, while Len’s Convenience Store and Dyson’s Meat Market rounded out this vibrant block.

.
The 1969 Fire
Just a year earlier, in March 1969, a fierce blaze engulfed Moore’s Hardware Store. As captured in the dramatic photo of the fire, flames threatened to erase a cornerstone of Brock Street commerce. Thanks to the swift and courageous efforts of the local fire department, the surrounding buildings were spared, allowing the community to preserve its essential charm and spirit.
.
.
Brock Street Today
Fast forward to the photo taken in 2022, and the same block of stores shines in the warm glow of a summer afternoon.
-
On the left, Getaway Travel, Uxbridge Tailoring, The Lemonade Stand, Cycle Solutions, and Mondo Hair Salon welcome visitors with a fresh energy.
-

The Thomas Foster Memorial
The Thomas Foster Memorial
A Hidden Gem in Uxbridge
Perched atop a hill in the picturesque countryside north of Uxbridge, The Thomas Foster Memorial is a striking landmark that captivates visitors with its unique design and commanding presence. Visible from the west, south, and east, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to one man’s vision and devotion to his family.
Thomas Foster, a quintessential local boy born on July 24, 1852 eventually ventured to the bustling city and found his fortune, rose to prominence as both a Member of Parliament and Mayor of Toronto. His legacy, woven into the fabric of his community, left an indelible mark that continues to resonate to this day. It’s fitting that a man of such stature would be commemorated in a manner befitting his legacy—a memorial unlike any other, nestled amidst the serene beauty of rural Uxbridge.
A Vision Inspired by the Taj Mahal
The Thomas Foster Memorial draws inspiration from the world-famous Taj Mahal, located just outside Agra, India. Built in 1650 by Emperor Shah Jahan as a tribute to his beloved wife, the Taj Mahal is widely regarded as the pinnacle of Indian architecture. In the 1930s, Thomas Foster, a former Toronto mayor and successful businessman, sought to create a similarly magnificent structure in Uxbridge as a final resting place for his wife, his daughter Ruby, and himself.

The Making of a Masterpiece
To bring his vision to life, Foster enlisted the Toronto architectural firm Craig and Madill, proposing a grand design that would also serve as a community burial site. A removable slab in the floor was incorporated into the plans to allow coffins to be lowered into crypts below. The initial budget for the project was set at $100,000; however, by the time of its completion, costs had doubled.

Despite the financial challenge, the memorial was completed with elegance and precision thanks to the skillful execution of the building contractor, Messrs. Witchall and Son, alongside general foreman Ted Griffith and Dave Billson. Skilled artisans were brought in to contribute their expertise, including Italian craftsmen who installed exquisite mosaics and terrazzo flooring imported from Italy. Even gold lettering was carefully applied by workers who took on extra weekend jobs due to the scarcity of employment during the Great Depression.

A Community Effort
Beyond its architectural splendour, the construction of the Thomas Foster Memorial provided much-needed work for the local community during difficult economic times. Workers were housed and fed for a mere $1.00 per day, which covered three meals and lodging. The infusion of jobs and services helped many families through the hardships of the era.
The project spanned three seasons, culminating in a cornerstone-laying ceremony in the fall of 1935. One year later, in October 1936, the Thomas Foster Memorial was officially dedicated.
A Lasting Legacy
Thomas Foster passed away in 1945 at the age of 93, leaving behind not only a fortune but also a legacy of grandeur in the form of the memorial. Today, this architectural gem continues to intrigue visitors, standing as a remarkable symbol of love, remembrance, and community spirit.
For those who appreciate history, architecture, and hidden gems, the Thomas Foster Memorial is a must-see destination in Uxbridge. Whether admiring its breathtaking design or reflecting on its rich history, this extraordinary structure remains a lasting tribute to one man’s remarkable vision.

The memorial is open for exploration from Wednesday to Sunday during July and August and guided tours can be arranged during May, June, and September.
