History

Humbermede was initially settled by Issac Devins, a German pioneer who moved to Canada from Pennsylvania in the 1790s. Humbermede’s second settler, John Crosson came here on foot from Pennsylvania in 1799. The Crosson family belongings were hauled on the back of a two year old horse that Crosson sold to Devins in a trade for half of the latter's 200 acre farm lot.

By the 1870s, Emery had evolved as a farming hamlet at the junction of Finch Avenue and Weston Road. Humbermede had its own school, church, blacksmith shop and general store. A local post office launched in 1879 under the name "Dayton." The Toronto Grey and Bruce Railway adopted the Dayton name for their flag station on Finch Avenue.

The post office and railway station later switched their moniker to Emery to circumvent the predictable misunderstanding that arose between Dayton, Ontario and Dayton Ohio. Emery's country life came to an end in the 1960s when developers constructed residential subdivisions and industry where farms once graced this landscape.
