STAG ISLAND
This is a photo album that I purchased recently that depicts a well to do family from Chicago summering at their cottage on Stag Island. It looks like they had numerous visitors throughout the summer and a photo was taken of each one.
Stag Island is in the middle of the mighty St. Clair River just West of Corunna Ontario. Stag Island is still covered with cottages today. This album is ca. 1912 or so judging by the automobiles and clothing styles. Hopefully I will have more on the history of Stag Island. The album was compiled by Adella E. Knight. Hopefully my readers can give me more on her as well. Please enjoy this very interesting family as they holiday on beautiful Stag Island.

These last 2 pics are from a book or a newspaper or maybe even a Stag Island brochure. Adella included them.





 

 All of these pics and more are from my own collection. I bought them.
