Further to the origin of Don Mills Rd:
These old maps are great fun to peruse in detail.
I'm now surprised to find that an earlier (1866) map reveals that the road extension across the valley from Winchester St. and up the east side of the river is identified as "Don & Danforth Road."
And this 1788 map of "Torento" Harbour reveals an early spelling of our city's name!
Does anyone else find this trivia as interesting as I?

I do! Keep'em coming, Goldie.
