Highlight of the Hamlet of Springtown
Springtown lies just outside Renfrew County in Lanark Highlands, but its historical trade and social ties extend into the Calabogie and Greater Madawaska regions. It was named for the numerous springs in the area and was historically a logging and farming settlement.
The community supported mills, a church, and modest local services during the late 1800s and early 20th century. While it declined with the timber trade, it remains identifiable through rural addresses and landmarks.
Surveying in Springtown may involve both Crown grid and irregular land patterns influenced by the Clyde River and topographic constraints. Heritage lots, mill reserves, and encroachment issues are common themes.
Adam Kasprzak Surveying Ltd. maintains the ONLY archived catalog of survey records of Renfrew County. We are the caretakers of over 150 years worth of numerous Land Surveyors records (plans, fieldnotes and other records) . This includes records of Springtown, and the many other interesting parts of this corner of Ontario.
Historic survey records are essential for an Ontario Land Surveyor to form a boundary opinion. Without proper research, a Surveyor cannot accept one piece of evidence and reject another. A full understanding of the sources of evidence, the reasoning of its origin, and sources for error; all of the why - who - when - where - how must be evaluated. With access to all of the available records of past surveys in the County, we have the privilege of gaining these valuable insights.
Do you have any questions about our records, and how we carry out surveys that are built on the legacy of these historic records?
