'Mille Roches' is a
ghost town in the
Canadian province of
Ontario. It is one of Ontario's
Lost Villages, which were permanently flooded by the creation of the
St. Lawrence Seaway in
1958.
Families and businesses in Mille Roches were moved to the new town of
Long Sault before the seaway construction commenced.
Mille Roches was the birthplace of
Levi Addison Ault, who moved to
Cincinnati, Ohio as an adult and became a successful businessman and the city's commissioner of parks in the early
1900s. Ault also donated a large parcel of family-owned land on
Sheek's Island, which became
Ault Park.
