Tyendinaga: This map was enlarged from a plan of record in the Department of Indian Affairs. It is stamped “26th Oct, 1891” and refers the viewer to the Order in Council of April 1, 1793 to confirm the reserve. The map was obviously used for later purposes, for handwritten near the bottom of the map is this note: “CNR Railway right of way was abandoned ... and leased by the department lots 7 to 30 inclusive 1933”. This was originally the route of the Canadian Northern Railway. Other writing identifies two large plots of land next to Shannonville as belonging to the Ontario Limestone and Clay Co. The shaded area containing the village of Shannonville. Libraries and Archives Canada NMC-19771
