Taking a drive down Old Hastings Colonization Rd hoping to see some reflections of times gone past. To learn about the 6 ghost towns on this road with more indepth photos check out the write-ups for (from south to north): Millbridge, Glanmire, Murphy Corners, Thanet, Ormsby and Umfraville.

The cross with handcuffs marked "Yvonne" is located in a swamp just south of Ormsby. She past away here after her car flipped and she drowned..

I found the handcuffs after a nice exploration at unfathomable Umfraville (ghost town). This cross and handcuffs are located in a tiny bog just south of Ormsby where Yvonne flipped her and car and drowned..

The location of the cemetery with the steps is Glanmire, which is south of Murphy Corners and north of Millbridge. Read about Glanmire to get more info about the church. I love those last 2 photos and am trying to guess where those were located as I never saw them from Millbridge to Umfraville. I am guessing they must have been from the top end or low end of the Old Hastings Rd.
