Chiefswood National Historic Site
Chiefswood was built from 1853 to 1856 on Six Nations territory by Mohawk Chief George Henry Martin Johnson as a gift to his English bride, Emily Susannah Howells. The loving couple and their four children, Henry Beverly, Helen Charlotte Eliza (Evelyn), Allen Wawanosh, and Emily Pauline, resided at Chiefswood for 28 years. George lived out his final days at the house, with his family moving to Brantford after his passing in 1884.
