AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

    Government Approaches to Child Neglect and Mistreatment in Nineteenth-century Ontario CHARLOTTE NEFF* In 1893 Ontario introduced its first comprehensive child protection system. The concept of neglect and the assumption of societal and governmental responsibility for disadvantaged children was not new, however; it had evolved during Ontario’s first century. By 1874 legislation provided a detailed and sophisticated description of children in need of protection and of deficient parents; a process for removing children from their parents and the authority to refuse their return; a new type of institution to care for these children; systematic government grants for children’s homes and their accountability to the state; and simpler incorporation by which charitable institutions could assume the authority they needed over children in their care. Ontario’s child protection system was thus built on a firm foundation. En 1893, l’Ontario a mis sur pied son premier syste`me complet de protection de l’enfance. La notion de ne´gligence et la pre´somption de responsabilite´ sociale et gouvernementale a` l’endroit des enfants de´favorise´s n’e´taient toutefois pas nou- velles, ayant e´volue´ durant le premier sie`cle d’existence de l’Ontario. En 1874, la le´gislation donnait une description claire et pre´cise de ce qu’e´tait un enfant ayant besoin de protection et un parent de´ficient et pre´voyait : un processus permettant de soustraire les enfants a` leurs parents et l’autorite´ de refuser de les leur rendre; un nouveau type d’e´tablissements pour s’occuper de ces enfants; des subventions gouvernementales syste´matiques pour les foyers pour enfants et l’obligation de ces maisons de rendre des comptes a` l’E´ tat; et un processus de constitution en personne morale plus simple permettant aux œuvres de bienfaisance d’exercer sur les enfants a` leur charge l’autorite´ dont elles avaient besoin.

There is usually a “show and tell” at the end of the meeting where individual members present artifacts or papers and explain the significance behind them. Since it is our AGM, members present will be asked to approve a slate of Directors to serve on the Board for the period March 28, 2018 to March 27, 2019. As of this writing, all nine currently serving Directors have indicated a desire to serve for the forthcoming Society year. One Directorship remains open, so I would encourage any member to step forward and stand for election as a Director. Let me know in advance if you wish to be considered by the membership for a Directorship on the Board. We expect Directors to take part in the pleasant work of the Board and to make a commitment of their time to attend Board meetings and other events in which your Society participates. My e-mail address is: [email protected]. As a matter of parliamentary procedure, I will call for nominations from the floor at the meeting, as well. As dictated by our Constitution, Officers (President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer) are appointed by the Board, usually at its first Board of Directors meeting following the AGM.

  • Nothing “Improper” Happened: Sex, Marriage, and Colonial Identity in Upper Canada, 1783-1850
    NOTHING “IMPROPER” HAPPENED: SEX, MARRIAGE, AND COLONIAL IDENTITY IN UPPER CANADA, 1783-1850 by Robin Christine Grazley A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada June, 2010 Copyright © Robin Christine Grazley, 2010 Abstract This study explores the importance of heterosexual relationships, in theory and practice, to the making of Upper Canada as a British colonial society. Between 1783, when settlers began to enter the territory in the wake of the American Revolutionary War, and 1850, when the transition toward a more powerful colonial state was underway, contests surrounding marriage, gender, and sexuality were of great significance. The colony was intended by its first and many of its subsequent Lieutenant-Governors to serve as a model of loyalty to the British Empire and a bulwark against American democratic “disorder.” Fundamental to this colonial project was the presence of an orderly body of white settlers; however, this aim was often complicated and undermined by a diverse settler population which refused to conform to middle-class mores and social norms. Marriage and sexual “morality,” significant aspects of assessing “race” and “civilization” in this period, were primary sites for these tensions. This study reenvisions appropriate and inappropriate heterosexual behaviour in the colony and explores the importance of debates over marriage and sexuality to articulations of settler identity. Using private writings, travel literature, and judicial records, including the benchbooks of the colony’s judges, I examine the ways the formation and dissolution of intimate relationships were contested between individual colonists, in local politics, and in international discourse about the British empire and the value of its colonies of settlement.
