Folly Lake

Folly Lake (Folly Mountain), Colchester County — This word applied to the name of a place found on, and described as, "an unfortunate location". In this case, it expresses the opinion of neighbours toward one of the founders whose name was Flemming. At first it was known as "Flemming Folly" and then later as "The Folly". It then became "Fawleig" and also was once on the railway time tables as "Folleigh".
