Biography

Lydia was born in 1839 to William Hartrick and Phoebe Haight. She married Robert Shear in 1864. [1] She married Isaac Linton in 1882. [2] Lydia passed away in 1912. [3]

"William Hartrick was born in the County of Wexford, Ireland, in 1804. He came with his parents to Pickering at the age of twelve. In 1822 he married Phoebe Haight, who was born in Pickering in 1810. Mr. Hartrick became owner of considerable land in the immediate vicinity of Pickering Village. He was a magistrate for about thirty years. The old Hartrick homestead was built in 1843 and still is in good repair. He died in 1874 and his wife in 1882. One son and two daughters still survive, viz., William Hartrick and Mrs. John. Gordon, of Pickering, and Mrs. Isaac Linton, of St. George, Ont." [4]

"The location of the Frost house reflects the vastness of the original 200 acres owned by William Hartrick. It must remain in its location to serve as a historical link between the proposed new housing and the older residential development in Pickering Village. Further, links with the original Hartrick homestead do not end with the Frost farm, as Linton Street was named after one of William Sr.'s children, Lydia Linton. Lydia was very active in the formation of the subdivision just north of the Hartrick stone house." [5]
