CONFERENCE PROGRAM Centennial COMMITTEE CHAIR’S Welcome OACFP 100th Anniversary October 1–3 Hamilton CONFERENCE PROGRAM Centennial COMMITTEE CHAIR’s Welcome Dear Colleagues: On behalf of the Centennial Planning Committee, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend the centennial anniversary celebrations of the Ontario Association of Cemetery and Funeral Professionals to be held from October 1–3, 2013 in Hamilton, Ontario. To commemorate 100 years of service in the bereavement industry, we have planned many special events in conjunction with the Annual General Meeting, Educational Symposium and Tradeshow. The program will include opening ceremonies at the beautiful Hamilton Cemetery, birthplace of the Association, welcoming remarks from the Mayor of Hamilton and other government representatives; a Hamilton Police Honour Guard; Hamilton Police Band; display of vintage funeral vehicles, a tour of Dundurn Castle, a celebration tea at the Coach House (on the grounds of Dundurn Castle) and much more! But that is only the beginning… That same evening, the official launch of the tradeshow will take place at the Hamilton Convention Centre – Old Hollywood Style! The following days feature a variety of outstanding speakers and programs; an old-Hollywood-style red carpet reception, banquet and gala at the Sheraton Hamilton Hotel; and closing ceremonies at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. The 100th Anniversary celebrations will surely be remembered for years to come! This Centennial celebration will bring together cemetery, cremation, funeral professionals, and industry suppliers to commemorate this significant and historic event. We urge you to be part of this momentous celebration and join us for what we hope will be the best, well-attended OACFP event in the history of this association. On behalf of the Centennial Planning Committee, we encourage you to join us in Hamilton to celebrate in the Preservation of Tradition to Guide Progress. Sincerely, Crystabelle B.

Attire: Business or business casual (no blue jeans or shorts); recommend comfortable shoes for walking the grounds. Stories in The Stones Tour at Hamilton Cemetery Hamilton Municipal Cemeteries are like museums, with their headstones serving as a record of our culture and social history. Through an enduring stone, they reflect personal and national sentiment; speak of love, pity, and patriotism; summarize lives of remarkable longevity and remind us of lives lost through tragedy. Many of Hamilton’s colourful characters and history lie buried in our cemeteries. The Stories in The Stones tells their fascinating stories through a guided tour at Hamilton Cemetery. The Hamilton Cemetery is Canada’s first and oldest municipally owned and operated cemetery, providing a lasting memorial, permanent tribute and a final resting place to many loved ones. The Stories in The Stones tour will guide you through history including the opportunity to use your smart phone to learn more about the interactive guide markers. Death and Dying Tour at Dundurn Castle Elaborate mourning practices and rituals were developed during the Victorian period. The MacNab family was not spared these experiences which are well documented through newspaper articles, illustrations and journals when both Sir Allan MacNab and his wife Mary died at their family home. Other events surrounding Dundurn include hangings for treason, death from cholera and the tragic Desjardins train accident of 1857. Join costumed historical interpreters for a special tour of the grounds and castle to uncover the truths about these tragedies.

  • Noteworthy Bird Records Fall (September to November) 2020
    Hamilton Study Area Noteworthy Bird Records Fall (September to November) 2020 Scarlet Tanager at Malvern Rd, Burlington 16 September 2020 - photo Phil Waggett. Hello, This is the new format of the Noteworthy Bird Records for the Hamilton Naturalists's Club. After more than 70 years of bird records being published almost monthly in the Wood Duck, the journal of the HNC, this is the first time they have been published in a separate publication. Seventy years is a very long time and it is with heavy heart that I break with this tradition. It is not done without a lot of reflection. I would have preferred that the NBR continue in theWood Duck as before, but these records were taking up more and more space in that publication and perhaps limiting the inclusion of other articles. To try to reduce the size of the NBR, I had taken to making the type face smaller and smaller which was making it increasingly difficult to read (difficult enough already with the reams and reams of records). I had asked for comments from Club members about whether or not they wanted to see the NBR continue within the Wood Duck or in a separate format. I did not get many replies. However, of those few replies, all of them suggested removing the NBR from the Wood Duck. This is what I have done. I have made this decision while I am still a co-editor of the Wood Duck. Soon I will no longer be the editor and I cannot expect future editors to publish these voluminous reports.

  • Deathscapes: Memory, Heritage and Place in Cemetery History
    DEATHSCAPES: MEMORY, HERITAGE AND PLACE IN CEMETERY HISTORY DEATHSCAPES: MEMORY, HERITAGE AND PLACE IN CEMETERY HISTORY By KATHERINE COOK, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Katherine Cook, August 2011 McMaster University MASTER OF ARTS (2011) Hamilton, Ontario (Anthropology) TITLE: Deathscapes: Memory, Heritage and Place in Cemetery History AUTHOR: Katherine Cook, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Aubrey Cannon NUMBER OF PAGES: ix, 196 ii Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between landscape and experience in understanding the historical trajectory of cemeteries, their ongoing role in living communities and their contribution to heritage and memory. It constructs a phenomenological history of Hamilton Cemetery, established in 1848 in Hamilton, Ontario, using a combination of material, archival and ethnographic research, in addition to employing visual media and statistical analyses. In tracing the physical transformations of this cemetery, as a result of fluctuating levels of maintenance, neglect and destruction, it is evident that cemeteries are implicated in the social processes constructing attitudes towards death, the dead, memory and the past. This thesis will explore three main periods in Hamilton Cemetery‟s past in order to examine the role of commemorative activities, grave visitation, vandalism, recreational activities and heritage or tourism. The period from 1848-1950 was one of active use and maintenance of the cemetery landscape, with the frequency and recentness of burial dictating a high level of reverence, respect and maintenance. Between 1950 and 1990, treatment of the cemetery is better characterized by the emergence of vandalism, limited use of the space, and increasing cumulative decay.
