History

The Henry Farm neighbourhood is located on land that was initially settled in 1806 by Henry Mulholland, a native of Clones County, Monaghan, Ireland. Henry Mulholland sold this farm in the early 19th century; however it was reacquired by his great grandson George S. Henry in 1898.

George S. Henry was a well-known politician whose forty years of public service were underscored by a term as the Premier of Ontario from 1930 to 1934. Although Henry had a great political career, his true passion was his dairy farm known as Oriole Lodge.

At the age of seventy-seven, Henry sold his farm for $2,000,000 to the developers of the current day neighbourhood in 1958. Just one day after this momentous deal George S. Henry passed away at Oriole Lodge. Oriole Lodge is still standing on its original location (17 Manorpark Crescent) and is still a private dwelling.
