Grew up as a toddler on a farm in Ruddles' Mills Years later, our farm house was being dismanteled and a log cabin was discovered within the other structure. My understanding is that it was declared a historical site and moved to some nearby farm...? Used to be a Fish Hatchery near the turn off to our place...that is all I remember.
