PORT BURWELL , A PIECE OF HISTORY!

We found this  old photo of our harbour  in the small town of Port Burwell Ontario Canada off of lake Erie. We think its from the  early 1900’s  . They used to bring coal from Pennsylvania ! Port Burwell was named after Colonel  Mahlon  Burwell in 1811. The light house in Port Burwell was built in 1840 making it the oldest light house on the north shore of lake Erie and one of the oldest wooden light houses in Canada !
