Thanks in advance and best wishes to you all tony

Have you visited the Englehart, Ontario homepage (http://www.englehart.ca/siteengine/activepage.asp?bhcp=1)?

The history of the town is covered and there are contact details so that you could perhaps whizz off an email to them for help.

Hi Tony:

Did you see the book that's for sale for Englehart's 100th Anniversary, 1908-2008? It would probably have lots of great photos in it.

For postcards, you could try contacting the historical museum, they have a gift shop.

It looks like a beautful area - I love the photos of Kap-Kig-Iwan Park!

Try Global Genealogy - www.globalgenealogy.com they have all kinds of good stuff. I would email them (Sandra or Rick - they are very friendly and helpful) and ask speicifically if they know of anything with Englehart photos or history.
