Ben Kerr, known as the king of the rum-runners, who frequently used Whitby as a point of supply. Kerr, who picked up boads of Corby's whisky at Whitby and took it across the lake to Rochester, was well known -- and much feared -- by Whitby residents at the time, says Hunt.

The wreck of his speedboat, the Pollywog, was found in 1994 near Col.- borne.
