BykeýDebbie Luchuk Lesore road, once extend- ing from Yo Toronto)o elle- ville, bas been a route of travel for more than 3,000 years, throughout native occupation of the area ta the present. <Edna Barraclougb, historian and colurnnist for The Canadian Statesman community newspa- per in Bowmanville, spoke te the Ontario Genealogical Society recently about the%1'iistory of the road. She said the first Lakeshore road was a native people's trait, in the tradition of other lakesh- ore routes worn into the land by native people. ."«They cut the smali trees, and the stuf growing -up, and if.there was a tremen doua, big tree in the way, they would burn out the trees," she said of trail-blazing ýmetbÏods that may have been used in the Lakeshore route. Barraclough said that the trail bas probably been used for 3,000 years. The oldest record of the route -that she bas discovered is a Sulpician Fathers record of mis- sions in the area. A few Sulpi- cians on mission to the native people spent the winter of 1669- 70 in the Port Hoee areaý, and described the weather as "bit- trycold." n 2lish and French fur traders were the next te, regularly use the rough trail, she said, and were thle only Europeans te tra- v(ûr.301 the trail until surveyors ariè the first settiers carne te PortIHope in 1793. The first surveyors who came te1fin a route from Bellevile to Yorkcarne in 1792, a year before settiers, and obviously found the trail lon g pounded down by' Indians. The Lakeshore road was the first to be used by travellers, settiers, missionaries and troops between the two points. Barraclough said the "Has- keils Marshes, Sopers (and other famifies) moved up along Lak- eshore road,» sometimes building frame and brick homes alongside the road. "In Port Granby and Port Brit- tain there are homes built along the road and this bas caused a lot of problems," she said. 1791 to 1928 saw a hardy groupof saddlebag preachers usualy Methodists, use the roacf ta visit missions between Toronto and Belleville. In 1812, Barraclough said the road was used for the travel and trf.nsport of troops. The 1837 revolution was ta leave a rather sad "aftermatb for a long time» for residents of the Lakeshore road area, she said, describing it as a "very sad story. "After that day (the revolution in York), men were hunted down ail over the province, and some people tried ta help them get NOTICE 0F .PUBLIC MEETING SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM PLANS FOR SOLID WASTE MANAG EMENT Take notice that a public information meeting wiII be held on: Tuesday, May 9, 1989 7:30 p.m. Pickering Recreation Complex 1867 Valley Farm Road Pickering, Ontario The purpose of the meeting is to provide information relating' -Principles for Amending the Short-Termn Solid Waste.
