Description From Owner:
  • The passage separates Isle Madame from Cape Breton Island. The name recalls Charles Lennox, 3d Duke of Richmond and Lennox (1735-1806). He was secretary of state in the British cabinet.
  • His nephew, the 4th Duke, served briefly as governor-general of Canada, (1818-19). Peter Landris received a crown lease here in 1805. See also Richmond County.
