Description
Two photographs taken sometime in the 1970's on the city street outside 2467 Old Bronte Road, south of Dundas Street in Palermo, Oakville.

They show the two lane road line with big maple trees. Click on "Pages" "Select" to see the 2nd image.

You can see the old frame house to the north, 2477 Old Bronte Road. It was built sometime in the years 1834-35.

There is no date or information as to the name of the child in the photograph but perhaps he is a toddler from the Wettlaufer family who until recently (about 2015) owned the house.
