"This road is called Britannia [now Aylmer] Road and extends seven miles. Being the first road made in this township, the mode of forming it may be interesting as well as useful; Mr. Wright first marked it out as far as the lake [Deschenes], then ploughed it on each side and threw the earth to the centre to form the top into low places, built bridges and paved the road, where necessary, with broken stones; he also built stores at each end for the deposit of different kinds of goods for the accommodation of the upper country. From Columbia Farm two roads branch off in different directions. One, passing along the edge of Columbia Pond [now Leamy Lake], leads to the Gatineau Farm, remarkable as being the spot selected by Mr.

  • City History Hunt: the Evolution of the Bytown Museum
    City History Hunt: The Evolution of the Bytown Museum COMMISSARIAT BUILDING CITY REGISTRY OFFICE (70 Nicholas street) WELLINGTON STREET FIRST EXHIBITION SPACE (116 Sparks street) First Exhibition Space (116 Sparks street) In 1898, a group of women from Ottawa decided it was important to preserve the history of Ottawa and Canada. They joined together to create the Women’s Canadian Historical Society of Ottawa (WCHSO). The WCHSO was the only historical society established and managed entirely by women of the twenty founded in Ontario between 1869 and 1900. Members worked to establish Ottawa as a respected national symbol, to construct a local identity despite Ottawa’s residents being geographically, historically, ethnically, religiously, and linguistically divided, and to include women in the history of the area. “Lone Exhibition”, their first exhibit, was put on at 116 Figure 1: 116 Sparks street from 1955 used as the Center Theatre (City of Ottawa Sparks street in May 1899. The artefacts were a Archives, MG393-NP-34657-1) collection of loaned items by members and the general public. The theme of this and the three following exhibits were a celebration of the area’s early settlers and had similar contents due to their reliance on donations. City Registry Office (70 Nicholas street) The WCHSO found a home for their collection in 1917 at the Old Registry Office. World War One allowed the members of the WCHSO to convince the City of Ottawa that its citizens needed an institution that would preserve and remind them of their rich history. This aided them in obtaining the building.
