From the Shore to the Core
LeBreton Flats is named after John LeBreton, a native of the Channel Islands and a Captain in the British army. He is said to have travelled by canoe down the Rideau River to Kingston, then by horseback to Brockville, Ontario, where he met a lawyer and judge, Levius P. Sherwood. Together, they purchased lot 40, the site now known as LeBreton Flats.
