Local information

Heffron was home to St. John the Baptist Catholic Church and a post office in its earlier days. The church still stands, but its congregation has since merged with several others into St. Maximillian Kolbe's Parish in Lanark.

Some consider Heffron and Dopp to be closely related, because of their proximity. Both are linked by the local snowmobile trail, and have an association with nearby Emmons Creek Fishery Area.[1]
