Ancestors of Cedric and Brendan
Jos. Hirkimer. The surname ought certainly to be Herchmer, but what the Christian name was is a matter of doubt. Probably it was Hanzoost. If so, he had been a Captain in the American Revolutionary War and he received grants of land accordingly in and near Kingston. He was the father of Mrs. Markland and Mrs. Anderson, who, with their brothers, Jacob and Lawrence, inherited his real estate. The family was very prominent in Kingston in early days and was connected with several others, as may be seen by a study of the various records in the Registers.
One member of it was, in more recent times, an assistant at the Cathedral and another was the late Col. Herchmer of the R.N.W.M.P. and of the South African Expeditionary Force. The clergyman, in his day, is said to have made a good sale of the family lands to the west of the city to the British Government for military purposes.* SOURCE Mr. J. P. Gildersleeve, Registrar of Deeds for Kingston.
