NoteThe 1891 Farmers' Directory for Beverly shows a James Sager on concession 4, lot D (apparently in the Gore of Beverly.) His postal address is shown as St. George. The 1895 directory provides the same information.

McGill University's The Canadian County Atlas Digital Project, extracts from an 1875 atlas information that is mostly the same. This locates James Sager on lot D in the 4th concession (Gore of Beverly). He is shown as a farmer and cheesemaker. The one difference is that his post office is shown as Troy.
