Description From Owner:
- Pop. 590. In Storrington T., Frontenac C., on C. Rds. 10 & 12, 15 km. N of Kingston.
- area was settled around 1812 by United Empire Loyalists attracted by 200 acre (81 ha) land grants.
- The community first took its name from Storrington T. in 1841, but in 1856 James Campbell, on whose land most of the settlement was built, suggested the name Inveraray after the town in Argyllshire, Scotland.
- The second 'a' in the name was later dropped. Few would question that Inverary's most versatile entrepreneur in the late 1800s was Robert A. Marrison, a carriagemaker, blacksmith, piano salesman, apiarist, and undertaker.
