Does anybody know any of the history of Treasure Island? I understand it was once called 'Red Head Island' but I don't know why and why and when was it changed to Treasure Island. We have seen some old literature talking of a small resort there back I believe in the 50's that they called a 'Boatel', and also at one time a boy's camp, but I would be interested in any other info, details, pictures, etc. about the history!

Thanks
