The SD&G Historical Society’s Speakers Series presentation with Cornwall Community Museum curator and local historian, Don Smith originally slated for March 10 will now be held Tuesday, April 21 at Schnitzels Restaurant at 7pm.
Don will present a fascinating story of the St. Lawrence River that has shaped so much of Cornwall and Canada’s history. His presentation will guide the audience on a journey along our section of the river and provide glimpses of some of the people, businesses, events and geographic features that have shaped the Cornwall we know today.
Take in the presentation and learn more about this waterway that has played a dominant role in our lives from the early Native settlers and the voyageurs, to the Loyalist arrival, the building of the Cornwall Canal, the development of major industries, the St. Lawrence Seaway and the building of Lamoureux Park – the river has seen it all.
