About Brockville
Southeastern Ontario is United Empire Loyalist country, colonised primarily by loyal British subjects fleeing the newly establishedUnited States of Americaat the end of the American Revolution (1776-1783). Because of the region's proximity to the US border (Morristown, New York, directly across the St. Lawrence River, is easily visible from Brockville's waterfront) this area was one of the front lines in the War of 1812. The town's name refers to General Isaac Brock, leader of British-Canadian soldiers in the Niagara region during that war. Brockville bills itself as the "City of theThousand Islands", in reference to a group of islands directly upriver on theOntario-New Yorkborder.
