Carleton County Book ends line 4608  [1844 - 1847]
This ends these land entries
Check back to dates in 2015, 181 Soldiers settled
Jan 2016 to Feb 2017 273 Civilian Settlers, Total of 454 settlers
To end of March 2017,  86 settlers sold their land. Moved ??

Next I will list other settlers beginning in 1800 with Philemon
Wright and his settlers who moved to Hull, now Gatineau.
Then to present day Ottawa and on to those who built
the Rideau Canal. Most of my references will be to the Library
of the Ottawa Branch, Ont. Genealogical Soc. which is located
in Ottawa City Archives, on Woodruffe Ave, at Tallman, south of
Algonquin College. FYI 2018 is the bi-centennial of the
settlement of Goulbourn Twp.[Richmond, Stittsville & Ashton].
as the Richmond Military settlement.
Rideau Canal construction started 1826/27. completed 1832.
