About Brockville
Brockville is a city in Eastern Ontario, Canada in the Thousand Islands district. In spite of the fact that it is the seat of the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville, it is politically free of the province. It is incorporated with Leeds and Grenville for statistics purposes as it were. Known as the "City of the 1000 Islands", Brockville is on the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River inverse Morristown, New York, about somewhere between Ontario's Cornwall toward the east and Kingston toward the west. It is 115 kilometers 71 miles south of the national capital of Ottawa. It is one of Ontario's most seasoned European-Canadian people group and is named after the British general Sir Isaac Brock.
Indigenous people groups lived along the two sides of the St. Lawrence River for a huge number of years. The principal individuals known to have experienced the Europeans in the zone were the St. Lawrence Iroquoians, a gathering unmistakable from and going before the Iroquois countries of the Haudenosaunee, based further toward the south. While the wayfarer Cartier recorded around 200 words in their Laurentian dialect and the names of two towns, the general population had vanished from the zone by the late sixteenth century. Anthropologists trust they may have been driven out or crushed by the great Mohawk individuals of the Iroquois Confederacy Haudenosaunee, who by then held the St. Lawrence Valley as a chasing ground.
