    From the private research notes of Dr. H.C. Burleigh (1893-1980), unsourced records - perhaps from a gazetteer or farmer's directory.

    A Storrington property, Lennox-Addington Co. is shown in 1860 and 1878 atlases here.

    The Camden East, Lennox-Addington Co. properties are shown in 1860 and 1878 atlases here.

    The Olden Twp., Frontenac Co. property is shown in 1860 here. The 1878 atlas doesn't seem to have included detailed views of the northern townships.

    The Ernesttown Twp., Lennox-Addington Co. property did not show a VV name on either atlas.

    Names were included on maps by subscription, and perhaps subscribers only paid to have their primary residences shown.
