Bottom - This house, now at 4 Frost Avenue, Long Sault, was the 4th house moved in the Ontario Hydro relocation of the 1950s. The house was moved from Maple Grove where it had been built on the Allan Robertson farm by George Devitt and Allan Robertson's daughter Ada (Robertson) DeWitt. Following the passing of George Devitt, Ada married Stanley G. Williams. This house was identified as SL 64, and it was lifted from its foundation at Maple Grove on July 23, 1956. The following day, it was placed on its new concrete block foundation on Lot 277, Long Sault. This house served as a "Stop-over House" for those requiring accommodations while homes were being moved. John and Dorothy Thompson rented the house from Ontario Hydro on July 22, 1957, eventually purchasing it in 1960. Donna and Thomas Reed have made this house their "home" since 2006.
