Getting Here
by John Cardiff
Norfolk County is a two hour drive southwest of Toronto's Pearson
International Airport. From Toronto, take Highway 401 west for an
hour to Cambridge, then Highway 24 south for an hour to Simcoe.
Or... Norfolk County is an hour southeast of London, Ontario. From
the airport, drive south to Highway 401, east to Highway 19, south
to the Highway 3 at Tillsonburg, and Highway 3 east to Simcoe.
Norfolk's largest centre is Simcoe, Ontario, population 16,000.
Simcos is a tad east of the centre of Norfolk. Most of Norfolk is
within a 15 minute drive of Simcoe. Simcoe is our choice of where to
stay when you get here. (Depending on your ancestors, you may prefer
to stay elsewhere, but your visit to Norfolk should proabably start
with a visit to the Eva Brook Donly Museum at 109 Norfolk Street
South in Simcoe.)
Delhi is 12 minutes west of Simcoe on Highway 3
Jarvis is 12 minutes west of Simcoe on Highway 3
Port Dover is 12 minutes southeast of Simcoe on Highway 24 and 6
St. Williams, Port Rowan and Long Point are 20-30 minutes south of
Simcoe on Highway 24, or south of Highway 3 on Highway 59.
