  • 2.8 Steamboats and Canals on the Ottawa River
    CULTURAL HERITAGE 105 2.8 Steamboats and Canals on the Ottawa River The Ottawa River was once the only way to access the Upper Ottawa Valley, to travel between Montreal and Ottawa and beyond. It was a viable option for military and commercial access to the Great Lakes. Before roads and even railways were built, the Ottawa River was literally the one and only highway, carrying merchandise, people, and mail in both directions. From Montreal, there were two Figure 2.63 Canoe on the River, 1841 main routes inland: the St. Lawrence – Great Lakes system, and the Ottawa River – Lake Nipissing – Georgian Bay to Upper Great Lakes route (Canadian Public Works Association 113). At first, canoes plied the waters of the Ottawa, carrying First Nations Peoples, explorers and voyageurs into the interior of the land. But the development of the lumber industry in the Ottawa Valley and the related settlement in its upper reaches soon required larger boats. These Source : Philip John Bainbrigge/Library and Archives Canada/C-011815 boats faced logistical challenges hoisting themselves up or around the many sections of chutes and rapids they encountered along the Ottawa. A series of canals, initially built for military purposes, facilitated the transportation of goods and people along the river. Figure 2.64 Steamer, “Duchess of York” Steamboats appeared on the Ottawa River during the construction of these canals, enabling a more reliable and efficient transportation system. The canals only circumvented certain rapids. Others, such as the Chaudiere Falls, still represent an Canada/C-003949 obstacle to navigation. Steamboats were therefore confined to particular sections of the river.

  • 5.6 the History of the Upper Canada Side of the Ottawa River Between Shirley’S Bay to the East and the Madawaska River to the West
    OTTAWA RIVER COMMUNITY HERITAGE 227 5.6 The History of the Upper Canada Side of the Ottawa River Between Shirley’s Bay to the East and the Madawaska River to the West Bob Sherrif This section outlines local history by township, including the March, Torbolton and Fitzroy Townships. March Township This township was named after the Earl of March, son of the ill‐fated Duke of Richmond. The end of the War of 1812 found many military men more or less at loose ends here in Canada. Whitehall found it more expedient to encourage the Officers to remain here in Canada by offering land grants upon which they could retire and, at the same time, further the settlement of this new land. There were already many military men settled in and around Perth and Richmond, so Sir John Colborne promoted the settlement in what became March Township. The first person to settle here was Captain John Benning Monk, late of the 97th Regiment, and a veteran of the Napoleonic Wars. Captain Monk was born in Windsor, Nova Scotia. His beautiful stone residence situated on the Ottawa shore was called “Beechmont”. The second settler on the March township shoreline was Hamnet Kirkes Pinhey, born in Plymouth, England, in 1784. He became a wealthy businessman in England with his own ships trading on the European continent. These connections made him an excellent candidate to become an agent for the British Government. He served as a blockade runner and, due to his proficiency in both French and German, he was able to move about and carry dispatches to England’s Prussian allies.

Instead we encourage to attend a production of Fairground Follies as described below: This summer, from Aug.14th - 17th , Rural Root Theatre and the Carp Fair Board will be presenting “Fairground Follies” a play written by a Carp resident, Helen Weeden. This play which is both humorous and historical has been written as part of the celebrations for the 150th Anniversary of the Carp Fair. Preparations and rehearsals are now in progress for 'Fairground Follies' with a cast of 23 and a crew of 30 people! Ensure you don't miss your opportunity to see this historical - and often hysterical – play about the Carp Fair - which celebrates its 150th Anniversary this year. Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Carp Fair, one of the most celebrated Fairs in the country – dating back to before Confederation. There are a multitude of stories to tell, and Helen Weeden has woven many of these together in a series of "vignettes" about the Fair and some of its "characters". The show tells of the founding of the Fair in 1863, and includes re-enactments of key events and portrays many of the people that established the legacy, tradition and character of the Carp Fair. There are more details on our website www.ruralroot.org or www.CarpFair.ca The North Lanark Regional Museum is pleased to announce that our annual Strawberry Social will be hosted at the museum on June 23rd from 1:30 pm to 4 pm.

  • Irish Catholics, Irish Catholicism, and British Loyalty in Upper Canada, 1819-1840
    Unsettled Settlers: Irish Catholics, Irish Catholicism, and British loyalty in Upper Canada, 1819-1840 by Laura J. Smith A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Laura J. Smith 2017 Unsettled Settlers: Irish Catholics, Irish Catholicism, and British loyalty in Upper Canada, 1820-1838 Laura J. Smith Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of Roman Catholicism in the process by which Irish Catholics integrated into Upper Canadian society in the first half of the nineteenth- century. For Upper Canadian Irish Catholics, Roman Catholicism was a “settling” force. In addition to providing familiar spiritual succor to individual migrants, religion provided order, organization, and focus to individual settlement and was the point upon which community-building efforts were frequently centred. But the Roman Catholicism of the Irish in Upper Canada was also “unsettling.” It was perceived by the dominant Protestant society as a key element in the inappropriate cultural baggage with which Irish Catholic migrants travelled, it was a barrier to political power and social advancement, and was believed to be at the root of violence and anti-social behaviour attributed to the Irish in the period. Despite repeated demonstrations of loyalty and good intentions in perpetuating the British connection on the part of the province’s Irish Catholic population, persistent and preexisting prejudices about Ireland and the politics, ii motivations, and abilities of Roman Catholic Irish, meant that population persisted as an outlier in colonial society.
