The community that would become the Milton we know today was originally settled in 1821 by Jasper Martin, who established a grist mill on Lot 14, Concession 2, Township of Trafalgar. That property now hosts the Village On The Park condominium tower and the Martindale Gardens seniors’ housing complex. Jasper and his wife, Sarah, had emigrated to Canada from Newcastle, England.
