Sarnia Ontario
Sarnia is a city of about 73,500 people  16 miles West of Petrolia. Sarnia has a great history in shipping,lumber and the petrol/chemical industry. Hopefully I can provide a detailed history but for now here are all the Sarnia Ontario pics that I have. Below is an article for Sarnia Heritage that appeared in the Sarnia Observer Feb 16/08. The Gurd House below was magnificent and it was a shame to have been destroyed. If you are with Sarnia Heritage or just have pics or text for this space, I will be glad to post it here.

We are always looking for vintage Petrolia pics of anything to buy or borrow for copying. If you have pictures that I can borrow I only need a few minutes to scan them.
