Summers family

of U E Loyalists, GC. The story of the Summers family of GC lacks strong original sources and is complicated by the duplication of names in the family and probably also by a good deal of error in written report and in recollection. For a lengthy period beginning in the early days of settlement, members of the Summers family operated a well known hotel or inn at Summerstown. The hotel was an important stopping place on the road between Montreal and York (Toronto). Summerstown, known also in earlier times as Charlottenburgh, was given its present name from this family. The Summers men of the two lives following appear to have been the two most significant of their family in GC of the pioneer period.


Name Charlottenburgh: MacMillan, Kirk, 63; Croil, HSR, 78
