There are four Paisley's in the world, Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland; 
Paisley, Ontario, Canada; Paisley Lake, Florida and Paisley, Lake, Oregon

Tradition tells us that Charles Mitchell-Innes suggested the village be 
named named Paisley, after his hometown of Paisley in Scotland.  He was 
quite a horseman.  Mitchell-Innes is buried in the Paisley cemetery.
