The Municipality of La Vallee in the Rainy River District celebrated its Centennial year in 2004. Though not incorporated until that year it was opened for settlement by the Dominion of Canada about 1892. Settlers from eastern Ontario began to flood into this area called New Ontario, described by some as a complete wilderness. The lure of free land was a major enticement.
These hardy people took up no easy task in taming this new land and the trip itself was difficult. Some travelled by train and boat to the Port Arthur region where they then journeyed over the historic Dawson Trail to Fort Frances, an early fur trading post, then finding their way to homesteads further down the Rainy River. Once the steamship routes became more common settlers travelled to Rat Portage (Kenora) by CPR rail. Some had boxcars full of goods; others came with just a few possessions and tools. They boarded steam-powered ships to travel across Lake of the Woods and down the Rainy River, encountering dangerous rapids and other hazards to dock at Emo or Big Fork. Barges towed behind carried household goods, farm machinery and animals. The story of these steamships themselves is exciting and interesting. Most of the earliest settlers were of British and Scottish descent.
Devlin and Woodyatt, the other two townships, were settled mainly by people from eastern Ontario of Methodist and Presbyterian background.
