Description From Owner:

Pop. 1,141. In Emily T., Victoria C., on the Pigeon R. at the foot of Pigeon L. and Hwy 7 and C. Rds. 7 & 38, 24 km. W of Peterborough.
In 1825 William Cottingham built a mill on the Pigeon R. and a community began to form, largely made up of Irish Catholic immigrants from County Cork.
The place was called Williamstown, after William Cottingham, until the post office opened in 1832 and was named Emily after the township.
In 1857 the name was changed to Omemee after the Omemee (Pigeon) Indians, a sub-tribe of the Mississaugas, who had once hunted in the area.
