BIBLIOGRAPHIE…………………………………………………………………..54 3 INTRODUCTION Dans le cadre de la Politique du patrimoine, relatif aux immeubles municipaux, le Bureau du patrimoine, de la toponymie et de l’expertise a réalisé une étude portant sur l’inventaire patrimonial des bâtiments situés dans les neuf Parcs- nature de l’agglomération de Montréal et sur l’évaluation de la pertinence d’accorder à certains d’entre eux un statut patrimonial. Il a ainsi été recommandé de citer à titre de monument historique quatre bâtiments situés dans trois Parcs- nature dont, notamment, la maison Mary Dorothy Molson dans le Parc-nature du Bois-de-Saraguay. L’objectif de ce document est donc d’exposer la valeur documentaire, la valeur architecturale, la valeur contextuelle et la valeur symbolique de la maison Mary Dorothy Molson en vue de recommander la CITATION à titre de monument historique de cet immeuble. Un bref historique de l’ancien Village de Saraguay dresse, préalablement, un portrait de l’évolution de ce secteur de l’Île de Montréal, dont la maison Mary Dorothy Molson est une des composantes et les Molson/MacDougall parmi les principaux acteurs. La recherche historique réalisée par Denise Caron, historienne, traite de l’évolution du territoire de cette portion du boulevard Gouin, de la population qui s’y installe et des activités qui leur sont propres, permettant ainsi de mettre en contexte le site et les personnes qui y sont reliés. La citation est une mesure de protection légale applicable depuis 1986, en vertu de la Loi sur les biens culturels, à laquelle une municipalité peut recourir pour protéger un immeuble qui présente un intérêt historique par son utilisation ou son architecture et situé sur son territoire. Pour ce faire, une municipalité peut, par règlement de son Conseil municipal et après avoir pris avis du Conseil du patrimoine de Montréal, citer en tout ou en partie un monument historique dont la conservation présente un intérêt public. 4 FICHE TECHNIQUE Désignation : Maison Mary Dorothy Molson (Manoir MacDougall) Adresse : 9095, boulevard Gouin Ouest Parc-nature du Bois-de-Saraguay Arrondissement : Ahuntsic-Cartierville Lot : 1 978 972 du Cadastre du Québec Ancien cadastre : Partie du lot 102 de la Paroisse de Saint-Laurent Construction : Vers 1930 Agrandissement : 1936 Superficie du terrain : 11 107 m² Superficie de plancher : 1 198 m² Implantation au sol : 443 m² Proriétaire : Ville de Montréal * 5 LOCALISATION ET PRINCIPALES CARACTÉRISTIQUES URBAINES La maison Mary Dorothy Molson, communément appelée Manoir MacDougall, sise au 9095, boulevard Gouin Ouest, est implantée dans le Parc-nature du Bois–de-Saraguay, situé à l’extrémité nord-ouest de l’arrondissement Ahuntsic- Cartierville, sur l’île de Montréal, le long de la rive sud de la Rivière-des-Prairies.

  • Britain's Magnificent “Forts”
    Britain’s Magnificent “Forts” The Freedom Freighters of WW 2 By Geoff Walker For our non-seafaring friends, many would associate the word “Fort” with some kind of medieval bastion or land based strong hold, but in the case to hand, nothing could be further from reality. Fort was the name given to a class of Cargo Ship built in Canada during WW2, for the British government (MOWT), under the Lend Lease scheme. All Fort ships, except two which were paid for outright, were transferred on bareboat charter, on Lend - lease terms, from the Canadian Government or the U.S. War Shipping Administration who bought ninety of the 'Forts' built in Canada. The construction of this type of ship commenced in 1942, and by war’s end well over 230 of these vessels had been delivered to the MOWT, (including all “Fort” variants and those built as Tankers) each at an average cost of $1,856,500. Often, confusion persists between “Fort” and “Park” class ships that were built in Canada. To clarify, “Fort” ships were ships transferred to the British Government and the “Park” ships were those employed by the Canadian Government, both types had similar design specifications. All Fort ships were given names prefixed by the word “Fort”, whilst “Park” ships all had names ending or suffixed with “Park” at the time of their launching, although names were frequently changed later during their working life. These ships were built across eighteen different Canadian shipyards. Their triple expansion steam engines were built by seven different manufacturers. There were 3 sub-classes of the type, namely, “North Sands” type which were mainly of riveted construction, and the “Canadian” and “Victory” types, which were of welded construction.

He spent a large part of his life collecting historical documents, DOI: https://doi.org/10.7202/012720ar which he copied, analyzed and commented. Through the accumulation of this wealth of documentation, he found himself at the centre of a network for the See table of contents exchange of historical and literary information. A study of his work reveals three practices associated with the work of an antiquarian during the first half of the nineteenth century : collecting, corresponding and copying. These Publisher(s) practices will be analyzed here by drawing on the entire corpus of Jacques Viger’s work, including his most well-known work, Ma Saberdache.

  • The Governor, the Merchant, the Soldier, the Nun, and Their Slaves
    The Governor, the Merchant, the Soldier, the Nun, and their Slaves Household Formation and Kinship in Seventeenth and Eighteenth-Century Montréal By Alanna Loucks A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in History in conformity with the requirements of the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada Final (QSpace) submission April, 2019 Copyright ã Alanna Loucks, 2019 Abstract From 1650 onward, the city of Montréal became a crossroads that connected colonial French, Indigenous, and African worlds. A study of the geo-cultural landscapes of Montréal presents an opportunity to analyze the commercial, social, and familial networks of diverse peoples in a space defined by mobility, fluidity, and growing stability. The purpose of this research project is to illustrate how French households in Montréal between 1650 and 1750, which included Indigenous and African descent slaves and other labourers who are generally not considered as a part of family formation, contributes to our understanding of the interconnected nature of the French colonial world. There are different ways to explore the commercial, social, and familial connections that shaped Montréal into a crossroads. This project explores spatial, demographic, and household composition as three interrelated dimensions of Montréal’s networks. I utilize the idea of concentric circles of connection, moving from a macro- to a micro-historical level of analysis. I begin by considering Montréal’s geographic position in North America; next I examine the physical layout of the built environment in Montréal and follow with an analysis of Montréal’s demographic development. The thesis concludes with the reconstruction of the commercial, social, and familial networks that developed in Montréal society and within individual households.

For references published prior to 1985, see the two bibliographies prepared by Karklins and Sprague, q.v. See also the two specialized theme bibliographies and the General and Miscellaneous bibliography as they also contain reports dealing with these countries. Abel, Timothy J., James W. Bradley, and Lisa Anderson 2018 Rediscovery and Analysis of Copper Beads from Two Iroquoian Sites in Jefferson County, New York. The Bulletin: Journal of the New York State Archaeological Association; https://www.academia.edu/38042171/. XRF analysis of four copper beads – some of which were believed to be European – revealed that they are all made of native copper, confirming that there is no verifiable evidence of European trade goods among the precontact Iroquoian people of northern New York.

Concludes that, while not precise enough to source native coppers, XRF is a cheap, nondestructive method for differentiating native copper from its European counterparts at 16th- and 17th-century Late Woodland sites.
