It makes the writing and blog post ideas come much more easily.

was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying
your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog
writer but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any recommendations for rookie blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.

I can see that you have studied Jones’s survey notes quite thoroughly. I found it fascination to follow his survey notes in Google Earth and having his descriptions line up with the terrain accurately. Unfortunate that Percy Robinson was born 35 years too early.

P.S. This website is a leading example of how to make an amazing contribution to society. Kudos to you and your colleagues.

I’ve really enjoyed reading your articles about early settlers in the area. I’m in the midst of preparing a talk on “York in 1812″ and will use some of the information you’ve provided. Have you published any books? I think your articles could easily be compiled into a fascinating and successful publication.

After 1967 he was an MP for Ontario and sat in cabinet. His importance to Canada at that time can be found in the last half of the article above.
