First of all, I just want to say, I am like addicted to your channel. You are the only person who doesn't add corny music, you actually narrate where you are in the house, which makes the viewer feel as if we are walking through it with you. I have to say, you have a serious sense of bravery because I could never do this on my own and not be nervous the entire time. Secondly, I love your attitude toward people with negative comments. Keep doing what your doing. =)

William and Elspet Eddie(pronounced E-D) were granted this land about 1835 when they emmigrated from Scotland with 6 of their children. They severed land for the cemetery when William's brother-in-law, Alexander McBean, died in 1847. My grandparents, great grandparents, great-great-grandparents and great-great-great grandparents(William and Elspet) are buried there. When William and Elspet passed away, their youngest son James Eddie inhereted the property. James built the house that stands today. Over the years the house was finally sold out of the Eddie family to the Simpson's. Unsure of when they purchased it? Lee's widow left it to her family when she passed away in 1985. I was told her family just locked the doors and left it to rot. It was later broken into and anything worth of value was taken. I can only assume that over the years that teenagers had their way with the old house(the mirrored backsplash being smashed). If I ever win the lottery, you'll know where to find me!! :D

That is really cool about your ancestors. This was actually filmed a couple of years ago but the house is still there. Thanks for your comment, and good luck in your visit.

Looked up who built this house and it was J.A.S Eddie . James Eddie lived from 1822 to 1892. The property was first owned by William Eddie who lived from 1785 to 1853, presumably his father. The original house was most likely a log cabin type structure. If you notice the early add-on structure to the back of the house, you'll notice hand hewn wood beams. These beams are re-cycled and may very well come from the earlier structures like the cabin or a barn and are in good shape!! I don't know why but it does show this house location on the map held in the McGill archival maps with a cemetery in 1877. The farm was first assesed in 1836 as Hill Farm and was probably a land grant after the war of 1812. It is very unfortunate that this house has been neglected!! The bricks look like the sort made in Walkerton Ont.

Oh I love all your videos! I was really impressed how you go through the home and try to find information like the last date someone was in the home. Thank you for showing other how its done! Oh and HERE HERE for reminding people that taking anything out of these houses is Theft!!! Your not there to steal you are there to explore! How fun.

Its always been a dream of mine to find an old abandoned farm house and explore! I'm so happy I came across your channel...I"m watching them all :)

The inside doors were pretty.

I'm sure if you weren't gonna play the piano, it would've played itself XD

I, too, like to look around in old, abandoned houses like this. You are definitely braver than I , going down into the basement, though, lol! This house must have been something in it's day. What a beauty. Thanks for sharing this.

Another awesome guided tour and trip with Tiki into our distant past. Favorite portion of this clip: The view out the upstairs rear window. It was worth the entire adventure and, in my estimation, was a million dollar view. This tour receives all five stars. Thanks Tiki! ~oO(♪)Oo~

I grew up a few mikes from there and recently photographed that house. I wasn't so brave to go in. Thanks for the tour. The name Eddie is pronounced with a long 'e'. I believe Lee Simpson died there and the house was left to deteriorate because of estate issues. Locally that is known as Simpson's cemetary.

Have you ever thought you saw someone in these houses? (like a spirit)

I love how she calls out what she sees and doesnt miss anything ever! esp. when she goes through books, newspapers. whatever to get a feel of the last date the house was lived in- and I also much add that she is one BRAVE woman! some of those houses look scary in broad daylight, and the basement she always bravely goes in would have me terrified! I watched one vid. a few days ago, now Im hooked and have been watching them on and off for days, thank you for such awesome tours!!! (I wish u would find one little relic to take with you, a little antique or something small to remember all your explorations, Ive seen so much stuff that would be a nice antique keepsake!)

Loved the tour! You are a brave woman, I don't know If I could go through a house like that myself but I would sure go with you!

The grass looks short for a abandon place. Pretty brave exploring alone like that, some houses might still have a drifter living in it.

Amazing, I really love exploring stuff like this.

Like some of the others have said, I am hooked...riveted bordering on OBSESSED in fact w/ these explorations through history. You in particular have a NATURAL GIFT with documenting and explaining your tour. Great Job !

That "stall" as you called it was probably to store wood or coal.

Tiki, I did not scroll all the way down to see if someone answered this, but here is my thought on the "stall" in basement. I believe it is a coal/wood bin used when homes were heated with it. I used to live in an old house in US that had one. Ours had a concrete "Slide" from outside with a cover. Coal/wood was delivered and slid down into bin for storage B4 use. Sometimes it was just thrown in through a window. Again great job!!

I agree totally. My parents were willed a house that was built in 1917. We renovated it and moved into it. In the basement was a coal chute and a coal bin, along with a rather large coal stove that sent heat up through a single large hole in the floor in the middle of the house. The hole had a heavy grate over it. That coal bin looked similar to this one.

When the last Simpson died, the house was full of their lives possessions, from top to bottom. The family who inherited their "life" had no room to put it all, other than to leave it where is was. It took less than 5 years for the doors to be kicked in, and looting to commence. Less than 10 years for every window to be smashed, and holes smashed thru walls. And 30 years later after the making of this video, people are still taking from the place. For instance all the doors you see in the video, all gone now.
