They may be Francophone descendants of mercenaries in the 18th century or Anglophone immigrants of the 1950s. In the 1980s, after a long period of official downplaying of the presence of the Germans, some German-Canadian leaders fought for recognition of the German contribution to a multicultural Canada. Many German-Quebecers took over this discourse, but some refused the idea of a German ‘founding people’ and insisted on the distinct role of their Francophone society. Furthermore, even in Canada, post-war immigrants had to come to terms with the German past; the victimisation often characterized the German- Canadian press, since readers many, of whom lived in Québec often were expellees of the German ‘eastern territories’ and the few exiles often chose to stay invisible. Thus for its citizens of German heritage, Québec became the place of encounter of several competing identity discourses, whether it was about the role of Francophones in Canadian history or about the role of Germans.

  • The English (Atheiral of Quebe}
    THE ENGLISH (ATHEIRAL OF QUEBE}. READ BEFORE THE £iterary and jistorical $atitty, Quebec, 10th March, 1891, BY F RED. C. WUR TELE, ESQ. In writing the history of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity of Quebec, it will not be out of place to give a short sketch of those good Monks and Friars of the order of St. Francis who were the former proprietors of the land on which the sacred edifice has been built. The mendicant order of Monks, called Franciscans, was founded in Spain, in the year 1208, by St. Francis d'Assisi.* Subsequently they spread into Italy and were introduced into France by St. Louis of Gonzaga. They were also called “Récollets,” from the latin word “Recollectus,” sig nifying “meditation” and also “gathering.” Their chief works were teaching, nursing the sick, and ministering to the poor, whose wants they supplied out of the donations and alms which they received. In fact their livelihood was obtained entirely by begging, performed by the “Frères Mineurs,” and so highly were they esteemed and beloved in old Canada, that the “habitants” would always transport free of charge the results of their begging expeditions from village to village and finally to the con vent in Quebec. The boatmen invariably were pleased to ferry them free across the St. Lawrence, * DeSalignac, 64 Samuel de Champlain relates, that “he was convinced of “the necessity of religious instruction to influence such of “the Indian population of Canada as might be induced to “turn to agricultural pursuits.” In this connexion he was directed by Sieur Louis Houel, at Brouage to apply to the General of the Order of Recollets.

  • CFWWIRF Project 107 Burial Report
    Project 107 Report Lawrna Myers June 22, 2016 Project 107 The goal of Project 107 is to locate and document the men, women and children who died during Canada’s First World War Internment Operations. Research has identified 126 individuals who died in Internment Camps across Canada. It is believed that this number differs from the original 107 individuals who were recorded as dying in General Otter’s report as the number of 126 includes six children as well as all internees that died in Amherst. At this time it has not been determined for those who died in Amherst if they were internees from Canada or German prisoners of war. It also includes two males who were not identified as “Prisoners of War” in the Canadian War Graves Registry The internees died in six provinces across Canada, they were originally buried in 33 different cemeteries. Table 1: Summary Information Number who Number of Province Perished Cemeteries British Columbia 18 5 Alberta 7 6 Saskatchewan 0 0 Manitoba 3 2 Ontario 59 11 Québec 24 6 New Brunswick 0 0 Nova Scotia 15 3 Prince Edward Island 0 0 Newfoundland and Labrador 0 0 TOTAL 126 33 British Columbia In British Columbia, 18 internees lost their lives in Morrissey, Nanaimo, New Westminster, Vancouver and Vernon. Their remains were originally buried in five cemeteries including: Camp Cemetery in Morrissey General Cemetery (Nanaimo Public Cemetery) in Nanaimo Project 107 Eighth Street Cemetery in New Westminster Mountain View Cemetery in Vancouver Vernon Cemetery (Pleasant Valley Cemetery) in Vernon Alberta In Alberta, seven men died in Banff, Calgary, Lethbridge and Munson.

LC PHILADELPHIA: HUBBARD BROTHERS, PUBLISHERS, No. 723 CHESTNUT STREET. 1886.

It has occurred to the author very often that a volume presenting the peculiar features, favorite resorts and distinguishing characteristics, of the leading cities of America, would Peculiarities of American cities. http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.05993 Library of Congress prove of interest to thousands who could, at best, see them only in imagination, and to others, who, having visited them, would like to compare notes with one who has made their PECULIARITIES a study for many years. A residence in more than a hundred cities, including nearly all that are introduced in this work, leads me to feel that I shall succeed in my purpose of giving to the public a book, without the necessity of marching in slow and solemn procession before my readers a monumental array of time-honored statistics; on the contrary, it will be my aim, in the following pages, to talk of cities as I have seen and found them in my walks, from day to day, with but slight reference to their origin and past history.

  • Finding Your Family in Notarial Records
    Finding Your Family in Notarial Records Notarial records are some of the most valuable documents you’ll come across in genealogy. Written and notarized by a notary who was officially commissioned by the authorities, these records can include details about events in lives of your ancestors, and the distribution or sale of their property. By consulting notarial records, you can measure the wealth of your ancestors—during their lifetime and when they died. You can also learn about the challenges they faced in their personal life, as many settlements were written by notaries to avoid going to court. Getting Started with Quebec Research You should first begin your research for ancestors who lived in Quebec by consulting church records and census records. Ancestry is home to the largest online collection of church records (Catholic and Protestant) called Quebec, Canada, Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1968. You will also find indexes to church records and cemeteries such as Web: Montreal, Canada, Non-Catholic Marriage Index, 1766-1899 and Web: Quebec City, Quebec, Mount Hermon Cemetery Index, 1846-1904 on Ancestry. Continue your research by consulting the Canadian Census Collection, which includes census records for Quebec from 1825 to 1921. Records like these can give your research a solid foundation, but in order to flesh out the lives of your ancestors, we encourage you to explore the unique and rich records that are the notarial records. The Notarial Records Collection on Ancestry Ancestry is home to the largest online collection of notarial records for Quebec. You’ll find records for the province of Quebec covering close to 300 years, from 1637 to 1935, which include acts written by 1,832 notaries.
