MARRIAGE Genealogical Abstracts From Arnprior Newspapers to 1934 This publication was created by volunteers. Copyright © Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives 2018 Published by ARNPRIOR AND MCNAB/BRAESIDE ARCHIVES 21B Madawaska Street, Arnprior, Ontario, K7S 1R6 www.adarchives.org 613-623-0001 Available only in electronic format. Introduction Contents and Organization – 1. The abstracts have been arranged in three sections - Births, Marriages, and Deaths, with this being the Marriage section. With the addition of the 1934 abstracts in 2018, there are now 3,640 marriage entries. 2. The abstracts are sorted alphabetically by surname. 3. Where the information is available, each entry contains the name or names, place of residence of those concerned, and the date and place of the event. 4. There is a cross reference from the surname of the bride to the groom’s surname. 5. The spelling of surnames and places is as printed in the newspaper, even when apparently incorrect. Therefore, try variations on the accepted spelling when searching. 6. At the end of each abstract, the date and page number of the newspaper is given in parentheses. All entries are from The Arnprior Chronicle, unless another newspaper is cited. Abbreviations used are: AN – The Arnprior News WM – The Arnprior Watchman AG – The Almonte Gazette 7. Following the newspaper citation there may be one or more asterisks (*). a. * - Indicates there is additional information that is not included in the abstract, e.g. names of other relatives and occupations. b. ** - Indicates that the information was found in an original paper copy BUT NO further information exists in the newspaper. c. *** - Indicates that the information was found in an original paper copy AND there is additional information that is not included in the abstract. (Note: not on microfilm.) Any additional information can be obtained by looking at the digitized copy, to where there is a link next to each index entry. If the issue has not been digitized, contact or visit the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives. Where Information was Found– The newspapers at times had a special section for notices of Births, Marriages and Deaths. However, genealogical items were also found throughout the paper under other headings which include "Anniversaries" and "Congratulations." Thus, relevant information may be located in an unexpected portion of the newspaper. In addition, the paper frequently printed a column which repeated birth, marriage, and death notices that had originally appeared in earlier issues. For example, a marriage event from June 1881 may be printed in the issue for June 25, 1931 in a column headed "Fifty Years Ago.” The date given for the event in the abstract would indicate this, e.g. "In June 1881." Geographical Area Covered - The geographical area covered by these abstracts goes far beyond the town of Arnprior. The items come from all parts of Renfrew County, the counties of Lanark and Carleton to the south and east, across the Ottawa River in Pontiac County, Quebec, and from many parts of the U.S.A. and Canada, especially the prairie provinces, to which many former residents of the region had emigrated.

    Sir Horace Rumbold and Japan (1909-1913)

    SIR HORACE RUMBOLD AND JAPAN (1909-1913) Preface Sir Horace George Montagu Rumbold (1869-1941) was a distinguished British diplomat1. He was the Ambassador to Berlin between 1928 and 1933, and well-known as having warned the British Government of the danger of Hitler and National-socialism at the very early stages of the rise of Nazism. Harold Nicolson dedicated the first edition of Diplomacy to him, describing Rumbold as “an ideal diplomatist2.” Rumbold had a colorful diplomatic career. He was at the centre of intelligence and diplomatic activity as the Minister at Bern during the First World War, inaugurated the official relations between Britain and then newly resuscitated Poland after the war, and headed the British delegation at the reconvened Lausanne Conference in 1923. He was also an expert on evacuation; evacuated embassy for three times, in Berlin, Warsaw, and Constantinople. Less known is the fact that he had served as the Counsellor in the Tokyo Embassy from 1909 to 1913. He had been Chargé d’Affaires there three times and had a lot of occasions to talk with the Japanese foreign ministers and prime ministers. He also had an audience of Emperor Yoshihito, although it was rare for the Chargé d’Affaires to be offered such an occasion3. In those days Japan was eager to establish a foothold in 1 Martin Gilbert, Sir Horace Rumbold, Heinemann, 1973, and T. G.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science The Limits of Social Mobility: social origins and career patterns of British generals, 1688-1815 Andrew B. Wood A thesis submitted to the Department of Economic History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, November, 2011 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorization does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88,820 words. 2 Abstract Late eighteenth-century Britain was dominated by two features of economic life that were a major departure from previous eras, the economic growth of the Industrial Revolution and almost constant warfare conducted on a previously unprecedented scale. One consequence of this was the rapid expansion, diversification and development of the professions. Sociologists and economists have often argued that economic development and modernisation leads to increasing rates of social mobility. However, historians of the army and professions in the eighteenth-century claim the upper levels of the army were usually isolated from mobility as the highest ranks were dominated by sons of the aristocracy and landed elite.

    Raising the Revolutionaries' Banner 1775-1776

    Vol. 4 No. 3_____________________________________________ __July-August-September 2007 Raising the Revolutionaries’ Banner 1775-1776 19th century magic lanternslide depicting SC Patriot Sgt. William Jasper of the 2d South Carolina Continental Line, commanded by Col. William Moultrie, heroically re-raising the battered South Carolina standard over the parapet of the sand and palmetto log Fort Sullivan during the British naval bombardment of June 28-29, 1776. Mike Coker, the South Carolina Historical Society’s image expert, reports that this image is from a lanternslide painted by artists at the C. W. Briggs Company. The title on the slide is: “Sergeant Jasper at Ft. Moultrie, 1776”; it is a transparency, collodion on glass; size 3 1/4 X 4 inches. The Briggs were an American family of lanternists, slide painters and manufacturers. Daniel Briggs started painting and selling slides in 1850. Later the firm became C. (Caspear) W. Briggs and Co. in Philadelphia. Slides were made from stock negatives and colored by hand. (1850-1930s) This slide’s artist is unknown. Image is courtesy of the SCII Regiment. Artist Lucy Brown made a painting of this image in 1975, the original of which hangs in the main offices of the South Carolina Forestry Commission, 5500 Broad River Road, Columbia.
