DOROTHY Mackenzie, REPORTER for the SAULT STAR, 1960-1970 INDEX TO THE COLUMNS OF DOROTHY MacKENZIE, REPORTER FOR THE SAULT STAR, 1960-1970 INTRODUCTION Dorothy (Moore) Mackenzie (1924-1998) was a columnist for the Sault Star out of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario during the 1960s. Her “beat” was mostly the surrounding villages and towns in Algoma District, roughly from Spanish to the east, Wawa to the north and St. Joseph’s and Manitoulin Islands to the south - all along and off the “Line”, i.e. King’s Highway 17. Hence the name of her main column “Up and Down the Line”, using the local vernacular. Dorothy was a historian as much as anything. She recorded these communities’ happenings and history, mostly based on personal interviews with the residents. Today, that information is pure local historical gold. Moreover, a valuable genealogical resource lies hidden in her columns. So, with the permission of her daughter and my childhood and life friend, the late Ella Jean (MacKenzie) Richter, I commissioned a transcript of the columns. The columns were located, organized and transcribed. I then approached PostMedia Corporation of Toronto, the owners of the Sault Star and the holders of the copyright for the material. Unfortunately, they would not provide permission to use and distribute a complete transcript of the columns. Nor would they be a partner in this goodwill venture. So, using all the material assembled and transcribed, the column titles were ordered by date and this entirely original name and place index was produced. To see the actual columns of interest, the reader will need to go to libraries with microfilm or paper copies of the newspaper and look for the appropriate issues to read or make their own copies. The most prominent locations with those microfilms are the Sault and District Library in Sault Ste. Marie and the National Library in Ottawa. Electronic copies could not be found at the time but may become available eventually. To avoid legal issues, a document with the full transcripts was not made available. Unless the Copyright Act is amended before then, the original material will officially enter the public domain on 23 September 2048, 50 years after Dorothy's death. So, please enjoy a trip back to the 1960s and earlier. The titles’ text is strictly original as it appeared, warts, errors, historical biases and all. Thank you to Ella Jean and her family for use of Dorothy’s scrapbooks of her columns. A special thanks to Arthur Manley who located the columns not in Dorothy's collection. Also, his newsletter for the Sault Ste. Marie and District of Algoma Branch of Ontario Ancestors (formerly Ontario Genealogical Society) provided the impetus for this project. This document is not copyrighted and may be copied and distributed freely but, please, without cost. For its use, a donation to the reader’s local historical or genealogical society would be in order. Brian Latham Yellowknife, NT July, 2019 3 List of Libraries Arthur A.

A LITTLE OVER A HUNDRED YEARS AGO, a fellow from Ohio by the name of Matthews had gotten into the habit of bringing his family to Canada, to stay with friends at their Lewellyn Beach summer home, in a remote, far-away place called St. Joseph Island. The 1910 summer season proved to be a little different from earlier times. During his stay, Mr. Matthews noticed an interesting old house overlooking the Shoal Island Lighthouse. It had once been the ferry tender’s house, but was now vacant. Mr. Matthews knew he was seeing a true jewel in the rough. He bought the property and then his fancy was taken by another charming old house, just across the road – or so he thought! As it turned out, the other house was actually on another island! And so began a relationship between the Matthews fam- ily and St. Joseph Island that has grown and flour- ished ever since. Here, Mother Nature is a friend and ally, helping to shape Matthews Island to fit Since 1910, St. Joe and Matthews Island have been the taste and commitment of THIS gener- the ‘home away from home’ for generations of the ation of the Matthews family. Here, noth- Matthews family – including Mrs. Mary Ann ing is ever wasted. Everything gets Matthews, who in 1930, donated $35,000.
