A Virtual Tour through the Lands of the Lost Villages

Donate Here! ---- https://north-lanark-historical-socie... ----- Jim Brownell, President of the Lost Villages Historical Society presents “A Virtual Tour Through the Lands of the Lost Villages.” This presentation takes viewers on a tour through the villages and hamlets that were wiped from the face of the earth in the inundation of July 1, 1958. Over a four-year period (1954-1958), the St. Lawrence Seaway and Hydro Development projects affected 12 communities along the St. Lawrence River, west of Cornwall, Ontario, and saw the relocation of 6,500 people to new and altered communities. The presentation will conclude with a virtual visit to the Lost Villages Museum and Archives in Ault Park, South Stormont. ----- This presentation was given as part of the North Lanark Historical Society's Digital Speaker Series. ----- The North Lanark Regional Museum is owned and operated by the North Lanark Historical Society, a not-for-profit organisation in operation since 1965!
