BATH, ONTARIO

'Bath, Ontario' (2001 approximate population 1,100) was first settled by the United Empire Loyalists in 1783. After the town had been divided up between the families of Hawley, Davy, Rose and Amey, it was John Davy who was first to lay down roads on his lot #10. By 1804 the whole village had been prepared for settlement and surveyed.
The village was incorporated in 1859. It is today, as it was, a small, quiet hamlet.
Bath is located in Loyalist Township, Lennox & Addington County. It is 19 km southeast of Napanee and 27 km west-southwest of Kingston. The village sits on the shores of Lake Ontario and is the location of many early Loyalist historical sights.
Every year on July 1 there is a Canada Day celebration featuring a parade and fair.
The village was originally named 'Ernestown', but was renamed 'Bath' in 1819, after the city in England.
The Tragically Hip have a recording studio located in Bath called The Bathouse Recording Studio.
