I don't know much of the history but my grandfather Bernard
Mulligan had everyone laughing at him as he built his grand
house out in the middle of the bush. It now stands opposite
the high school in the centre of town. I believe it is now a
rooming house. I believe he had something to do with the
C.N., and was on the town council. There is a picture of
him in the Centenary Book put out on North Bay.
My other grandfather Harvey Sherwood also had something
to do with the C.N. He later became a sales rep. for
Campbell Soups. He had a Coat of Arms dating back to the
War of the Roses in England. He moved his family from
Birks Falls to North Bay around 1910.
