The Old Hastings settlement road |
"Bush land scrub land-
Cashel Township and Wollaston
Elzevir McLure and Dungannon
green lands of Weslemkoon Lake
where a man might have some
opinion of what beauty
is and none deny him
for miles-"
Weslemkoon Lake |
Despite the souless 'efficiencies' of the provincial government in the late 1990's, which combined townships and buried identities in paperwork, the original township names - and their stories - endure, tributes to the settlers who saw this land as their last hope...and they were right.
