JOHN STRA CHAN, ~I. A. , D.D. f From a portrait (painted probably about 1820) in the Collection of Trinity College, Toronto, by kind permission of the Pro vost. ] © The Ontario Historical Society 1946 PREFACE Although John Strachan was for long such an outstanding and con­ troversial figure in Upper Canada-"the most consummate politician in the country" - comparatively little use has been made of his correspond­ ence, partly because it was known that a life of Strachan was being written by the late Professor A. H . Young (whose death prevented the completion of that work), partly because Strac:han's handwriting is not always easy to decipher and students may have been repelled by the labour involved in reading the original letters. Possibly, too, the very voluminous­ ness of the correspondence may have caused some students to pause. It is with the object of making a number of Strachan's letters available to students of history in a form in which they may be easily read that I have transcribed the contents of one letter-book. Strachan was a prolific writer, and much of his correspondence has been preserved. Some of the letters are in the hands of private individuals, but it may safely be said that by far the greater part of the correspondence now lies in the Department of Public Records and Archives of the province of Ontario.

He married Jane Eliza Crooks and had ten children. From 1810 to 1812 Alexander Neil was a student at the grammar school run by the Reverend John Strachan at Cornwall, Upper Canada. His movements from 1812 to 1819 are not known for certain, but in the autumn of 1819 he wrote from Montreal that he had determined to go to York “to place himself under the care and direction of Dr. Strachan.” From 1819 to 1823 Bethune remained at York as a student of divinity supported by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. He was made a deacon by Bishop Jacob Mountain on 24 August 1823 and priest on 26 September 1824. He had charge of the parish of The Forty (Grimsby) and an out-station at Twelve Mile Creek (St. Catharines). In 1827 Bethune became the incumbent of the parish of Cobourg; he was later its rector and served there until 1867. In 1831 he made the first of a number of trips to England on behalf of the Church of England in the colony, on this occasion in support of the University of King’s College (later the University of Toronto) and the Church of England’s rights to the clergy reserves in Upper Canada, questions on which his views resembled closely those of Strachan.

  • 1 Remembering Montreal As a Site Of
    1 Remembering Montreal as a Site of Transatlantic Slavery Charmaine A. Nelson Having lived in Montreal for many years, I often visited the historic neighbourhood of Old Montreal. As a scholar who studies Transatlantic Slavery, I found it to be full of ghosts. Old Montreal was Montreal at one time; the part of the city that was first settled by the French starting in the sixteenth century. In 1688 the colonial administrator Jean-Baptiste de Lagny (Sieur des Bringandières) petitioned the governor, Jacques-Réné de Brisay (Marquis de Denonville), to appeal to France for slaves.1 Already established trade routes between New France and several French-held Caribbean islands were cited as evidence of the feasibility of transportation. By the early eighteenth century, slavery continued to grow slowly to service the demand for domestics and field hands of the wealthier classes.2 By 1663, an aggressive new era of colony-building had ensued under King Louis XIV. Although hesitant about the ability of Africans to survive in the Canadian winters, the King was persuaded when local politicians extolled the success of slavery in New England as indicative of the resilience and adaptability of the African population. He gave his assent on 1 May 1689.3 Slavery in New France included the enslavement of people of African and Indigenous descent, a practice that the British continued after conquest with the renaming of the region as Quebec. Transatlantic Slavery transpired over the course of 400 years from the 1400’s to the 1800’s. The standard focus on the tropical or semi-tropical regions, has resulted in a fixation on mono-crop plantation economies where year-round agriculture resulted in the cultivation and exportation of crops like coffee, cotton, and sugar cane.

  • Private Bankers in Ontario Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario
    HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO by STEPHEN EDWARD mORNING, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University August, 1994 -- -- --- - --------------- DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1994) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario AUTHOR: Stephen Edward Thorning, B.A. (University of Guelph) M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVJSOR: Professor John C. Weaver NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 502 ii ABSTRACT The structure of the Canadian banking system, and the establishment of strong chartered banks at a relatively early stage, have overshadowed banking institutions that operated outside the chartered system. The non-chartered or private banks can be categorized into three groups: the joint stock banks of the 1830s, the urban private bankers who appeared in the 1850s and after, and the small-town private banks of the post-1868 period. AJI three types of private banks were established to fill perceived niches in the chartered bank system. Those of the 1830s possessed an anti-establishment, hinterland bias. The urban private bankers specialized in savings and foreign exchange transactions, and often branched out into insurance, debentures, and ultimately stocks and bonds. The small town private banks began and prospered when the needs of small hinterland communities outpaced the inclination and ability of chartered banks to provide them with banking facilities. Unlike the urban private bankers, those in small towns offered a full range of banking services, and they often acted as insurance and real estate agencies as well.

  • Pauper Emigration to Upper Canada in the 1830S*
    Pauper Emigration to Upper Canada in the 1830s* by Rainer BAEHRE ** Pauper emigration to the Canadas peaked in the 1830s during the very period in which public concern over poor relief reached a climax in Great Britain. 1 In the mother country "the figure of the pauper, almost forgotten since, dominated a discussion the imprint of which was as powerful as that of the most spectacular events in history". 2 So argues Karl Polanyi. Yet, in general histories of Upper Canada the pauper is referred to only in passing. 3 Could it be that the pauper's role in Upper Canada was larger than has hitherto been assumed? As this appears to be the case this paper will examine how the problem of British pauperism was transported to the colony in the important decade before the Rebellion. I The early decades of the nineteenth century witnessed growing po­ litical, economic and social turmoil in Great Britain. The general crisis heightened in the late 1820s, aggravated by a combination of fluctuating markets, overpopulation, enclosure, poor harvests, the displacement of * I would like to thank Professors Peter N. Oliver, H. Vivian Nelles, and Leo A. Johnson for their helpful comments on an earlier version of this paper. Also special thanks to Stan Pollin, Greg Theobald, Faye Mcintosh and John Keyes.

He was given the mission at Cornwall, where he soon began taking students and set up a school. In 1807 he married Ann Wood McGill, the widow of Andrew McGill, a member of a prominent Montreal mercantile family, and they had nine children, James McGill, Elizabeth (died in infancy), George Cartwright, Elizabeth Mary, John, Alexander Wood, two daughters who died in infancy, and Agnes (who died at 16). In 1811 Strachan received an honorary D.D. from the University of Aberdeen (in 1829 he received an LL.D. from St Andrews University). The same year, he advised James McGill of Montreal to leave his extensive property to the cause of education; provisions were made that led to the founding of McGill University.
