Wendy et al, I have yet to see one specifically on Carleton County but there are a few depictions of Lanark in the Nepean Branch of the Ottawa Public Library, "Lanark Legacy" being one of them. Some rare books that refer to Carelton County and the people living in and near it are: "History of the Ottawa Valley", by J.L. Gourlay - printed in 1896 "Hub and the Spokes" written by Anson Gard in 1906. It is a history book of Ottawa. Sandy Ottawa On 4/27/06, Muriel M.
