- Notes
- In the 1840’s, Thomas Dumble and his son, John Henry, surveyors, came to Canada to be part of a joint commission to settle the Maine – New Brunswick boundary dispute. Afterwards, the family settled in Cobourg and in 1857 Thomas Dumble built this imposing house called Dromore. The steep-pitched roof line, especially the mansard, is quite uncommon for the period. Of note are the roof brackets with their stylish D – for Dumble.
