Kenabeek, Ontario
Kenabeek (pronounced Ken-a-beck) is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Ontario, located within the Unorganized West Part division of Timiskaming District, geographic township of Henwood.
The community is located on Ontario Highway 65, approximately halfway between Elk Lake and New Liskeard.
Kenabeek was founded in the early 1920s (nobody in the area appears to have an accurate date) basically as a post office, since the only other post office at the time was in Thornloe, about away (a long distance by horse and wagon). Other than farms (160 acre plots, a few with multiple homes, usually multi-generation family) there are really no houses which are a part of Kenabeek proper, so that the town is considered to be the General Store, Post Office and volunteer Fire Station.
==Geography==
Kenabeek and its surrounding area is mostly sand with a bit of rock, and a shallow amount of topsoil, and thus is not the best farm-land. A short distance away and a bit lower, is the Temiskaming Valley which does contain excellent farmland. There are a few small lakes within two or three miles (5 km) of Kenabeek, most are privately owned and are not great for swimming, many are muskeg lakes and others are surrounded by swamp. Perhaps the most notable thing about the lakes is that each seems to have a loon as a resident. The Kenabeek area is mostly good at growing hay and potatoes, and in a few cases for grazing a small number of cattle for local use.
