Area Information
Location:
St Andrew’s West is a quick 5-minute drive north on Highway 138 from Cornwall.
United Empire Loyalists, Jonas and Sarah Wood, arrived at the future site of Cornwall in 1784.
Circuses starring elephants were very popular in the 19th century.  When one came to Cornwall in 1878, A.P. Macdonald, a future lawyer, raised funds to see if it were possible for one of these elephants to swim in the St. Lawrence River.  Mr. Elephant proved his aquatic prowess by swimming all the way to Cornwall Island!  Many were needed in an herculean effort to return the elephant to the mainland. St. Andrew’s is the secondary launch site for the Lift Off balloon festival and oftentimes the large park area is filled with hot-air balloons. Cornwall Community Museum
