Description From Owner:

Pop. 77. In Artemesia T., Grey C. on C. Rds. 4 & 34, 45 km SE of Owen Sound.
1873, Francis and Matilda Hamilton named their property here Virginia.
The following year, Jane Latimer and David Bell laid out village lots and named the place Walterville, after Mrs. Latimer's husband who had died that year.
In 1876 the place was called Flesherton Station, but this caused confusion with nearby Flesherton. In 1899 a postal inspector renamed the place Ceylon.
His name choice is said to have been inspired by fmding a pound of Ceylon tea in the post office-store of Tristam Chislett. Agnes Macphail (1890-1954) was the fIrst woman to be elected to the House of Commons.
