The Burlington Historical Society welcomes "Lake of the Shining Arrow" Carol DeMarco's history of Brown's Lake. Making use of the Historical Society archives of photos, artifacts, newspapers and maps, Carol has spent many hours in research both here and at the Burlington Library. I hope this sparks your interest and curiosity in the history of the Burlington Area.
