I'm actually friends with a Lynde, His currently my best mate that the school I'm attending, Though his last name has now changed as it was his mum who was a Lynde. It amazed me to find out that he had a museum. I'm definitely going.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff to answer questions. You should visit here with your family and friends.
Great tour, lots of interesting facts. Interesting that Whitby had an important history in the shaping of Ontario. It's a shame that more historical houses weren't preserved.
We had a great time here. The tour guide was very friendly and had a great amount of knowledge. We will be goi g back soon.
