1952 Survey

Anyone else ever wonder why that stone pillar sits near she shore in front of Gates Cottage? See below for a Survey done in 1952.

That year, the land was split up. The EB Hamilton you see below was Gene Hamilton (Eugene Bartlett Hamilton) – that land is no longer in the family and Gene Hamilton is a story for a different post.

FB Hamilton is Floyd Hamilton (Florentine Byard Hamilton). Both were brothers of our Harry Hamilton and all three were grandsons of Thomas Hamilton.

DB and RA Hamilton are Donald and Dick Hamilton, and the stone pillar is marked on the survey, although the Floyd and Dick Hamilton lots were eventually combined.
