Description : "Well, many of us oldtimers actually still call it a township although it's really a town," shrugged Wallace, past-president of Innisfil's historical society.

Back to the Seven Year's War and a time when England and France were fighting it out for a continent, from Louisbourg to the Plains of Abraham. The names of descendants and the cemeteries that dot the area, stones of white standing out against patchworks of green. Places like Cherry Creek, Allandale and Belle Ewart have risen and fallen in importance.
