Summary from the Ontario Heritage Foundation's website
A native of Ireland, Keating (c.1786-1849) joined the Royal Artillery at a young age and came to Canada in 1812. He saw action at many points and as the first adjutant of the military establishment at Penetanguishene figured prominently in that community's early years.
