In 1873, Peter Millar , a son of Alexander and Janet, went to as Tyne Valley was called at that time. He ran the Yeo saw mill until the fall of 1874, when he went to Ellerslie Station where he constructed and operated a steam sawmill. Above left: The Millar Homestead in Bideford . Alexander Millar built the main section of this house about 1866. The ell was built on in 1894, replacing an older part that was removed and later used for a workshop. Since 1972 when this picture was taken, the fence has been removed. There is now a circular driveway with trees and shrubs on the lawn. Lucy Maud Montgomery stayed here for the first week when she arrived to teach school in Bideford . Finding it too far to walk to and from the school, she obtained a boarding place,the Methodist Parsonage, that was nearer to the school. —from pauline millar collection Above right: This house in Ellerslie is believed to have been built by Bannerman MacDougall about 1909 for Peter Millar .
