History
Willis Keith Baldwin, known more commonly as Keith, was born 27 December 1922 in Baldwin's Mills, the eldest son of Harold F. Baldwin and Ruth S. May. He attended high school at Stanstead College, a private boys school in Stanstead, Quebec, which he graduated from in 1940. Keith served with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) during the Second World War. He became a metallurgical engineer and moved to Lennoxville with his wife, Evelyn Rowe (1923-2015). Together they had four children: Bill, David, Nancy, and Dale. Keith gifted the land which now comprises the Parc H. F. Baldwin in Baldwin’s Mills to the Town of Barnston (now Coaticook) to create a nature reserve with public access. The park land includes the Barnston Pinnacle and is named after Keith's father, Harold F. Baldwin
