Have you ever wondered what pioneer life was like? What kind of house would you live in? What clothes would you wear? What food would you eat? What games would you play? What work would you do at home and in school? The area known today as the Municipality of Clarington was first settled in 1794 by American Loyalists. They travelled travelled up through New York State in covered wagons and on foot. Household items were placed on a large open bateau called a Durham Boat which was pulled along the coast by men using ropes. The Irish, Scottish, and English were the next to arrive after a difficult three month voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. |l «am 1 tw.ii - . SISK.
