D, Manager, Heritage Education Unit Cynthia Wallace-Casey is a recent Doctoral graduate in history educa- tion at the University of New Brunswick. She also holds a Masters de- gree (with a Diploma in Material Culture) from the University of New Brunswick. Her masters thesis, entitled “Providential Openings,” was a case study of women weavers in 19th century New Brunswick, which pieced together the (then) unrecognised contribution of female home workers to the economy of rural Queens County. Cynthia has worked in the field of public history and heritage for over twenty years. She com- menced her career as curator of a local community museum; has also been curator of collections at Kings Landing Historical Settlement; and was a member of the restoration team for Government House in Fredericton, where she was responsible for the development of interpretation and education programs for this national and provincial histor- ic site. Since 2003, she has been manager of heritage education for Heritage Branch in the Province of New Brunswick. In this role, she works directly with educators and students of the province (both anglophone and francophone). She is deeply involved with heritage fairs. Cynthia’s doctoral research is in the area of self-constructed meaning from the past. She is investigating the connection between community history, museums, and classroom instruction in Histori- cal Thinking. This research has been supported in part by The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada, the University of New Brunswick, and The History Education Network/Histoire et education en réseau (THEN/HiER) . Workshop A—De-Constructing Cabinets of Curiosity: (Re) Imagining History Museums In this workshop participants will be actively involved in experiencing, re-examining, and re-constructing a museum exhibition. Methods such as historic space mapping and material history analysis will be explored as teaching tools that enable hands-on learning. Using these techniques, participants will have an opportunity to re-consider the inter- pretive spaces of the Albert County Museum. In so doing, they will learn how to lead students in closely examining the artifacts, reflecting upon the narratives they encounter, and re-constructing their own narrative interpretations. The practical knowledge and skills gained from this workshop will be beneficial for those interested in project-based learn- ing, problem-based learning, and historical thinking in museums. 1:30 Donald Alward, Manager-Curator of the Albert County Museum Donald has been the Manager-Curator of the Albert County Museum in Hopewell Cape NB for the past ten years. Although he graduated from Saint Mary’s University with a Science degree and has worked in payroll and accounting for 6 years, he says that his present career in history is his dream job. Donald has helped renew the Albert County Museum and bring history to life through a major rede- velopment project that saw all eight of the museum buildings refurbished. He has received two Awards of Distinction from the Association Museums New Brunswick in recognition of his work at the Albert County Museum. Donald has two teenage children, Jonathan and Ada, and sings with the Greater Moncton Chorale. He has been a volunteer firefighter for the past 19 years and is the Fire Prevention Officer for the Hillsborough Fire Department. He also currently holds several positions on various community boards including: Chair of Cale- donia Regional High School Parent School Support Committee; Vice-President of the Greater Moncton Cho- rale; Treasurer of the Association Museums New Brunswick; and a member of the Albert County Health & Wellness Center Community Advisory Committee. Workshop B—Interpretation – pieces that fit together Artefacts are one piece of the puzzle, but what about the others. This session will explore the ideas of using a wide range of communicative media to tell the museum story. From minimalist text to personal guides, audio-visual screens to mannequins as silent actors, we will discuss the uses and effectiveness of different techniques as we see real examples in museum gallery settings.

    The historic limestone quarry on Green Head Island in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada Randall F. Miller1* and Diane N. Buhay2 1. Steinhammer Palaeontology Laboratory, Natural Science Department, New Brunswick Museum, Saint John, New Brunswick E2K 1E5 Canada 2. University of New Brunswick, Saint John, New Brunswick E2L 4L5 Canada *Corresponding author <[email protected]> Received 28 November 2013 ¶ accepted 11 January 2014 ABSTRacT Lime, or quicklime, is produced from carbonate sedimentary rocks like limestone. Lime is then used for a variety of purposes in building construction, agriculture, medicine, steel manufacture, and paper-making. By the 19th century, manufacture of lime for mortar and plaster was a significant part of the economy in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. Amongst the many quarries and kilns, the operation at Green Head Cove on Green Head Island was among the industry leaders. The Green Head quarry was probably used in the early 1700s or earlier. For many of its busiest years during the 1800s, the quarry was operated by Joseph and Frank Armstrong and was well known throughout the Maritimes and New England as a producer of a high quality product. Joseph Armstrong was referred to in contemporary newspaper stories as a pioneer in the New Brunswick lime industry. The Green Head quarry ceased production in the early 20th century and the site on Green Head Island now preserves the last vestiges and perhaps best example of this once thriving industry. RÉSUMÉ La chaux, ou chaux vive, est extraite de roches sédimentaires carbonatées comme le calcaire. On en fait divers usages, par exemple dans les secteurs de la construction, de l’agriculture, de la médecine et de la fabrication d’acier et de papier.
