Part of Smith's 1846 Canadian Gazetteer Updated October 14, 1999

Contains the geographical names (townships, towns, villages, etc.) from that part of the Gazetteer relating to eastern Ontario, with a description of each, the amount of Crown land available, the population, the amount and value of cultivated land, etc. The Gazetter has been split into districts -- the Bathurst, Dalhousie, Eastern, Johnstown, Midland and Ottawa districts -- but a menu of names in the introductory page allows selection of any geographical name. There is also a list of post offices, with names of postmasters, names of magistrates and of many government officials, in each district. There is an extensive early history of Canada, and a description of the country as it was in 1846. This includes a section on the destruction of the animals and forests and what could be done about it. Another section devotes itself to extensive hints to potential immigrants, comparing Canada favourably to the USA and other destinations (cheaper farmland, more law abiding, no cannibals, etc.).
