There was nothing in William Gunn's background to suggest he would become the founder of a prosperous community or that he would spend many devoted years in the public service of Bruce County. William Gunn's accomplishments were many. They included five years as superintendent of schools, reeve of the township of Bruce, census commissioner for the Bruce County census in 1861 and deputy clerk of the Crown and of the Surrogate Court, a position he held until his death in 1894.
