About Huronia
Huronia is most of Simcoe County in Ontario, Canada.....the home of the Huron (or Wendat) native peoples and was a major area of contact between first peoples and the French in the 1600s. The reconstructed fortified French mission of Ste. Marie among the Hurons is located just east of Midland, Ontario.
You can find it about 100 miles north of Toronto and has the towns of Midland, Penetang, and Tay and Tiny Townships... it also extends a little further south towards Barrie. Samuel Champlain may have first entered the area over at Orillia. Nowadays it is cottage country, farming country and some light industry. Another major historic site is Discovery Harbour, a 19th century British Army and Navy post with reconstructed buildings.
