Wellington County councillor Dave Anderson and Minto councillor Jean Anderson recently donated a massive map of Wellington County to the Town of Minto. The map is a copy of an 1861 map created by public land surveyors from Orangeville. The map shows lots and lot-owners throughout the county at the time. Dave notes he first saw the map at the County of Wellington Museum and Archives and said similar maps are on display in the Town of Erin and in Wellington North. “I thought it would be fitting to be here … and we’re just happy to give it to the town,” he stated. Mayor George Bridge presented the Andersons with a plaque recognizing the contribution, which will be displayed with the map at the Minto administration centre. Submitted photo
