Anybody know of any historical books related to the subject of this list, Grey? I'm also interested in Parry Sound. Lon

Hi Lon.... Actually there are many many books relating to the history of Grey County and the parts within. Each township at one time or another has produced at least 1 (Some have 2 and varied editions) history book relating to the settlement and the original settlers. I have over the years been able to purchase a history book of every single township within Grey (I have been willing to help several people over the last while to do lookups, as long as it is specific). Some of these books were harder to find than others depending on the number of books printed or when it was published. Most of the towns also had history books published (i.e. Markdale, Durham, Priceville, etc.) I have many of these as well. If you have something specific you want looked up perhaps I can help you. The County itself has resources specifically dealing with Grey itself. The History of Grey County and the reprint called a New History of Grey County are good research books as well. I am sure there are several other books out there that others may be able to bring to your attention. Some can be purchased through the Grey County Archives Book Store as well as the Grey County Museum Bookstore. Here is a breif listing of my library if you need a lookup done: History books for the townships: Artemesia, Bentinck, Collingwood, Derby, Egremont, Euphrasia, Glenelg, Holland, Keppel, Normanby, Osprey, Proton, Sullivan, Sydenham, St. Vincent Also For the towns of Markdale, Dundalk and Priceville. Also "Pioneers in the Queens Bush", "A History of Grey County", "A New History of Grey County", "Markdale & Flesherton; a written heritage", "Emminent Women of Grey County", "1880 Historical Atlas for Grey and Bruce Counties", I have others but these are the main Grey County ones. A good place to look for used history books I have found is a book store called Alexander Gallery. They are based in Toronto, however they will send a catalogue describing the used history books for sell and then they can be purchased through the mail. I have done it several times, since I rarely see the big city, and it works great. Their e-mail adress is [email protected] I hope this was of some help.
