Acknowledgements

The author wishes to acknowledge the helpful staff at Ontario’s many fine archives and museums. Archivists and curators at the facilities in Napanee, Archives Ontario, the City of Toronto Archives, and the Toronto Reference Library provided excellent service. I would, however, like to single out the staff at the Oshawa Community Archives and Museum and at the County of Prince Edward Archives for their generous assistance in this project. The staff at the Ministry of Natural Resources at Glenora and the Presqu’ile Point Provincial Park were also generous with their time and resources. Thanks to them as well. Many fine archival images are available on a series of excellent websites. The Niagara Public Library, the Queen’s University Archives, and in particular the website for the tiny community of Deseronto, which, despite its small size, has one of the finer archival websites online. To my family, my wife June, thanks for your patience with my various absences while prowling the shores of this unusual and historic lake. Finally, I am most grateful to my editor, Jane Gibson of Natural Heritage Books, and copy editor, Allison Hirst of the Dundurn Group, for unearthing and rectifying my various grammatical slip-ups.
