Description From Owner:
- Pop. 4,944. Part of the Town of Valley East, Reg. Mun. of Sudbury, on C. Rd. 80; 11 km NE of Sudbury.
- The first settlers were French-Canadian farmers, who arrived in the spring of 1898.
- Jacob Proulx, Henry Beaulieu, Napoleon Labelle, and Joseph Chartrand had between them two horses and one cow, but they persevered and eked out a living from the land.
- The community slowly grew, and in 1903 the post office was established as Hanmer after early settler Gilbert Hanmer, a farmer from Brant C.
