Pioneer Life on the Bay of Quinte, The Meyers Family, pages 20 - 30 "In an old burial ground on an eminence overlooking the Bay, midway between Belleville and Trenton, where lie the ashes of many of the men who built the first log cabins along the front of Sidney, rest the remains of Captain John Walten (sic) Meyers, the founder of Belleville, and the man who erected the first mills in the County of Hastings. Family tradition has it that the old Captain was born in Prussia. Some years before the American Colonies threw off their allegiance, his father left the land of his birth and came with his family to the colony of New York, where he settled on a farm near Poughkeepsie. The family prospered and were in comfortable circumstances when the war broke out. John Walten, our pioneer, had married Polly Kruger, also a native of Prussia; their children were all born on the homestead in New York, where they remained with their mother throughout the war. John's father and other members of his family cast their lots with the rebels, but John himself remained loyal. He took part in with the Tories in organizing a company for service, but being greatly outnumbered by the Revolutionists, they were.

    Family of Pewter Vanalstine and Alida Vanallen compiled by John A. Brebner for the Friends of Sandbanks 26th October, 2020 Generation One 1. (unidentified) Vanalstine #113098. He married (unidentified) #113099. Children: 2. i. Peter Vanalstine #80096 b. 1747. 3. ii. Cornelius Vanalstine #113100. Generation Two 2. Peter Vanalstine #80096, b. 1747 in Kinderhook, Columbia County, New York, occupation 1775 Blacksmith, occupation Militia Captain, Major, Magistrate, religion Presbyterian (supposedly), d. 02 October 1812 in Adolphustown, Lennox and Addington, Ontario,1 buried in Loyalist Burying Ground, Adolphustown, Lennox and Addington, Ontario. Peter's ancestors emigrated from the Netherlands to New Amsterdam (New York) around 1640. Supported Loyalist cause with General Burgoyne. After that defeat in 1777, and the confiscation of his New York properties, he took refuge in Canada. He returned to British controlled New York City in 1778, where he was awarded the rank of Major with the Associated Loyalists. His family joined him there, and in 1783 they fled, first to Sorel, Quebec via the Hudson River and the Atlantic coast to the St. Lawrence River, and on to Sorel. His wife Alida died at Sorel in 1784. Interestingly, the Vanalstine party appears to have been the only group of Loyalists from New York that chose the sea route from New York, up the coast and up the Saint Lawrence to Sorel. Most of the other Loyalists to Upper Canada chose the inland route; up the Hudson to Albany, the Mohawk and its tributaries to Oswego, and thence across Lake Ontario to Kingston and Prince Edward County. The major advantage of this water passage was that these immigrants could carry far more personal possessions than those relying on the rudimentary trails of the overland route.

  • Dual-Economy Growth, Trade, and Development
    STRUCTURAL CHANGE AND INCOME DIFFERENCES by Trevor Tombe A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Economics University of Toronto Copyright c 2011 by Trevor Tombe Abstract Structural Change and Income Differences Trevor Tombe Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Economics University of Toronto 2011 Economic growth and development is intimately related to the decline of agriculture’s share of output and employment. This process of structural change has important implications for income and pro- ductivity differences between regions within a country or between countries themselves. Agriculture typically has low productivity relative to other sectors and this is particularly true in poor areas. So, as labour switches to nonagricultural activities or as agricultural productivity increases, poor agriculturally- intensive areas will benefit the most. In this thesis, I contribute to a recent and growing line of research and incorporate a separate role for agriculture, both into modeling frameworks and data analysis, to examine income and productivity differences. I first demonstrate that restrictions on trade in agricultural goods, which support inefficient domestic producers, inhibit structural change and lower productivity in poor countries. To do this, I incorporate multiple sectors, non-homothetic preferences, and labour mobility costs into an Eaton-Kortum trade model. With the model, I estimate productivity from trade data (avoiding problematic data for poor countries that typical estimates require) and perform a variety of counterfactual exercises. I find im- port barriers and labour mobility costs account for one-third of the aggregate labour productivity gap between rich and poor countries and for nearly half the gap in agriculture.

  • Historic West Hastings Map Guide
    HISTORIC WEST HASTINGS MAP GUIDE www.vancouverheritagefoundation.org Introduction This map guide focuses on the western section of Hastings Street, west of Victory Square. Equalled in importance only by Granville Street, Hastings has been a part of every phase of Vancouver’s history. In the city’s early years, Hastings and Main was the principal cross- roads. Today, the nearby convention centre, Waterfront Station and SFU campus ensure the importance of Hastings Street’s western end. The city’s retail centre moved west along Hastings in the 1900s, gradually abandoning East Hastings between Cambie and Dunlevy to low-end shops and hotels. The coup de grâce for this eastern part was the move in 1957 by the BC Electric Company from its head office building at Carrall and Hastings to a new office building at Nelson and Burrard (now The Electra condominiums); with the closure of both the interurban railway system, which had terminated at Carrall, and the north shore ferry service that docked at the foot of Columbia, there was little pedestrian traffic to support local businesses. The prestigious residential district once known as Blueblood Alley west of Granville became commercial beginning in the 1900s; high-end residential began to return in the 2000s in very different types of buildings, reflecting the redevelopment of the Coal Harbour shore- line with highrise condominiums. A chronology of West Hastings: Before 1886: First Nations people had a village at Khwaykhway (Lumbermen’s Arch) in Stanley Park and a handful of ship-jumpers and pioneers settled in small homes along Coal Harbour. John Morton, one of the “Three Greenhorns” who pre-empted District Lot 185 (the West End), built a cabin on the bluff near the foot of Thurlow Street in 1862.

  • Wyoming Water Research Program Annual Technical Report FY 2009
    Wyoming Water Research Program Annual Technical Report FY 2009 Wyoming Water Research Program Annual Technical Report FY 2009 1 Introduction The NIWR/State of Wyoming Water Research Program (WRP) coordinates participation in the NIWR program through the University of Wyoming Office of Water Programs (OWP). The primary purposes of the WRP are to support and coordinate research relative to important water resources problems of the State and Region, support the training of scientists in relevant water resource fields, and promote the dissemination and application of the results of water-related research. In addition to administrating the WRP, the Director of the OWP serves as the University of Wyoming advisor to the Wyoming Water Development Commission (WWDC). State support for the WRP includes direct funding through the WWDC and active State participation in identifying research needs and project selection and oversight. Primary participants in the WRP are the USGS, the WWDC, and the University of Wyoming. A Priority and Selection Committee (P&S Committee), consisting of representatives from agencies involved in water related activities in the State, solicits and identifies research needs, selects projects, and reviews and monitors project progress. The Director of the OWP serves as a point of coordination for all activities and serves to encourage research by the University of Wyoming addressing the needs identified by the P&S Committee. The State provides direct WWDC funding for the OWP, which was approved by the 2002 Wyoming Legislature, to identify water related research needs, coordinate research activities, coordinate the Wyoming WRP, and serve as the University advisor to the WWDC.

The Representation Act, 1924.—As a result of the census of 1921, a Bill for readjusting the representation in the House of Commons was first introduced in 1923, but was not passed until the close of the 1924 session. This Bill provided for a representation in the fifteenth Parliament of 245 members, taking away 2 members from Nova Scotia (14 instead of 16), and raising the representation of Manitoba from 15 to 17, of Saskatchewan from 16 to 21, of Alberta from 12 to 16, and of British Columbia from 13 to 14, the representation of the rest of the provinces and of the Yukon Territory remaining unaffected.
