Alpheus Mount was the youngest son and only one born in Upper Canada, remained on the Mount farm. He married Hulda/Huldah Wingrove, the daughter of Thomas Wingrove of Mountsberg and Catherine Griffin of Smithville on 26 March 1863. Alpheus Mount died 19 May 1918 in his 82nd year and was buried in the Baptist Church Cemetery, Mountsberg. His wife died 22 May 1921 in her 79th year and is buried in the same cemetery. The family became members of the Mountsberg Baptist Church in 1875, about the time that the Methodist Episcopal Church in Mountsberg began a slow decline in membership as several of the other sects within the Methodist church united to form the Methodist Church of Canada.
A detailed history of the Mount family including information on the two daughters born to Josiah and Mary Ann Mount are to be found in the vertical files, Flamborough Archives...
