John Malcolm (May 21, 1830 – August 24, 1865) was a successful farmer, early Scottish settler of Malvern, Canada, and a minor entrepreneur and innkeeper. He and his brother, Robert (1832–1908), co-operated the Speed the Plough Inn. Malcolm's other brother, Duncan Malcolm (1834–1909) was a merchant in the community.[1] Malcolm's grandson, Bill Malcolm, was a Presbyterian minister.
The area today known as Malvern was originally an intersection of Markham Road and Sheppard Avenue. The intersection was originally named Malcolm's Corners,[1][2] after John Malcolm's family.
