Full account. 09/07/1877 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Chelsea Gore on the Gatineau. A very lurid piece about a fight among the survey crew at Chelsea. Not clear what happened. The trouble arose in the first place over the dismissal of an engineer who was detailed to go to St. Jerome, and the engineer in charge of the party refusing to furnish him with the necessary funds for making the trip. 30/07/1879 Ottawa Free Press Maniwaki The Quebec correspondent of the Montreal Star, contains the following piece of news: the bill to incorporate the Ottawa and Gatineau Valley Railway Company is asked for, among others by Hon. Geo. Bryson, Hon. L. Ruggles Church, Alonzo Wright, M.P., J.M. Currier, M.P., Joseph Tassee, M.P., E.B. Eddy and E. MacGillivray. The preamble of the bill sets forth that the persons hereinafter named, and others, have by their petition represented that a line of railway to be constructed from a point on the north branch of the Ottawa River, at or near the city of Hull, in the Township of Hull, to a point at or near the confluence of the Rivers Desert and Gatineau, known as Desert Village, running on the west side of the river Gatineau, would colonize and settle the fertile land of the Gatineau valley and speedily develop its resources, agricultural, manufacturing, and mineral, and largely increase the wealth and population of the Province of Quebec, and moreover would be a powerful feeder to the Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa and Occidental Railway, have prayed to be incorporated as a company for constructing, equipping, running and managing such a railway. The capital of the company is not to exceed one million dollars. 03/07/1880 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki It is proposed to run a branch railway from Hull to the iron mines. The idea is a good one. 01/01/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Hull The provisional directors of the Ottawa and Gatineau Railway will meet in the City Hall on January 12 to discuss important business relating to the proposed railway. 03/01/1881 Ottawa Free Press Maniwaki The Ottawa and Gatineau Railway Company will likely be shortly agitated for.

It is said objections will be made to the granting of the charter to the St. Lawrence and Ottawa Railway if it does not agree to build the whole line. 08/03/1881 Globe and Mail Maniwaki All opposition the the Hull Mountain Iron Mining Company's Bill, asking for power to construct a railway from Hull to their mines, has been withdrawn on the company agreeing to give right of way over their line to the proposed Gatineau Valley Railway Company, should the latter require it. April-20-20 Colin J. Churcher © Page 1 of 82 21/03/1881 Ottawa Free Press Maniwaki A meeting of the ratepayers of the Township of Aylwin was held in the Town Hall, village of Wright, on the 16th March, Mr. Gainford, Mayor, presiding, at which the following resolutions were carried. Moved by Benjamin Reid, seconded by John Little, and resolved, that the right of way and a bonus be granted to any company who will build a railway from the city of Hull to Desert village. It is further proposed by Benjamin Reid, and seconded by John Little, that this meeting is opposed to the scheme which proposes as the route of the Gatineau Valley Railway a junction with the Pontiac Pacific Junction Railway in the county of Pontiac; that it would be against the interests of the Gatineau population, and would put the distance to Ottawa, their natural and only market, fifty or sixty miles longer. 30/07/1881 Ottawa Free Press Maniwaki The promoters of the Gatineau Valley Railway scheme must all be asleep, as nothing is now heard about the projected road. 05/10/1881 Ottawa Free Press Maniwaki Account of a meeting of the provisional directors of the Gatineau Valley Railway. 10/10/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Mr. M. Mitchell with a staff of engineers and twelve men, proceeds to the Dessert early this morning to commence operations on the Gatineau Valley Railway survey. 30/11/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki The engineers with Mr. Murray Mitchell have extended their surveys to the Peche and yesterday were at work on the river front with a view to reclaiming sufficient ground for the track on the bank thereby procuring a comparatively long tangent at the Peche village. This accomplished, the survey will be continued to Ottawa, and the continuation and completion of line number two through Masham to Stagg Creek will be projected without delay. 10/12/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Gatineau Valley Railway survey complete. The engineers and party concluded their survey of the Gatineau Valley Railway yesterday having been absent for rather more than two months. We understand that the total length of the line surveyed, including trial lines, is over 110 miles, whilst the actual length of the proposed railway from Dessert to Hull station, per survey, is 75 miles, the distance by road being, it is said, 95 miles. The engineers will now commence the office work in preparation of profile, alignment, estimates, etc. a synopsis of which will be presented at the meeting of the Directors next Thursday. The engineers with Mr. Murray Mitchell were Messrs. Soare, C.E., N. Slater, C.E. and Rev. W. Chambers, geologist. 16/12/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Directors' meeting. Engineer's report. Road could be equipped for $24,000 per mile. 17/12/1881 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Geologist's report. 09/01/1882 Ottawa Citizen Maniwaki Gatineau Valley Railway.

Currier, M.P., presided, and Mrr B. Bainbridge of Wright acted as secretary.

The results of the ballot was as follows; Messrs. J. M. Currier, M.P., Mr. C. H. Mackintosh, Mr. Murray Mirchell, Dr. Duhamel, M.P.P., and Mr. Charles Logue, Desert. The meeting then adjourned.

  • The Scots of Beechwood Tour
    The Scots of Beechwood The Scots have immigrated to Canada in steady and substantial numbers for over 200 years, with the connection between Scotland and Canada stretching farther — to the 17th century. Scots have been involved in every aspect of Canada's development as explorers, educators, businessmen, politicians, writers and artists. The Scots are among the first Europeans to establish themselves in Canada and are the third largest ethnic group in the country. With a history and heritage this long, it was only natural that the Scots of Ottawa found a home at Beechwood Cemetery. 1. TOMMY DOUGLAS - Section 64, Graves 285, 286 Born on October 20, 1904 in Falkirk, Scotland. In the fall of 1928, Tommy became a minister at Calvary Baptist Church in Weyburn, Saskatchewan. He felt first hand the harshness of the Depression in the prairies. Douglas knew that something had to be done for the common man. His experience with the vast unemployment and poverty transformed T.C. Douglas, the clergyman, into a social activist. By 1932, Douglas helped organize an Independent Labour Party in Weyburn of which he became president. The movement soon evolved into the Farmer Labour Party. This party offered hospital care for everyone on an equal basis, including unemployment insurance and universal pension. By July of 1932, the labour parties of the four western provinces formed an alliance under the name Cooperative Commonwealth Federation (CCF). The CCF became Canada’s first national socialist party. In 1935, Douglas was elected into parliament under the CCF. By the early 40’s, Tommy moved away from the federal politics and became leader of the Saskatchewan provincial CCF party (1942) while maintaining his seat in the House of Commons.

  • Phase II: Clemow Estate Heritage Study: Area Analysis and Recommendations
    Phase II: Clemow Estate Heritage Study: area analysis and recommendations 1 Phase II Clemow Estate Heritage Conservation District Study – Area Analysis and Recommendations 1.0 Background In 2004, Ottawa’s City Council recommended undertaking a multi-phased Heritage Conservation Study of three areas of the Glebe surrounding Central Park. The intention was to provide an overall understanding of the history and cultural heritage character of the area and, to determine if a Heritage Conservation District would be an appropriate planning tool to recognize and protect the area by managing change over time. In 2011, the first phase of the study resulted in the designation of the Clemow Estate East Heritage Conservation District under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. For Phase II, Council’s original direction was to study the properties adjacent to Linden Terrace and Patterson Creek to the Rideau Canal. However, the research for Phase I indicated that the original Clemow Estate also included the western section of Clemow Avenue from Bronson Avenue to Bank Street. The research also showed that there was a historical and physical association between Clemow and Monkland Avenues, as part of Ottawa’s parkway and driveway network. Accordingly, the study area that was part of the original terms of reference was amended to include Monkland Avenue. 2.0 Description of the Study Area The Phase II study area includes three streets in the Glebe neighborhood: Clemow Avenue between Bronson Avenue and Bank Street, Monkland Avenue and Linden Terrace between O’Connor Street and the Rideau Canal. The area also includes Patterson Creek and its associated park land.
