Preface In January 2014 I was contacted by W.Bro. Gordon Bouchard of St. George’s Lodge, No. 15 GRC, St. Catharines who was looking for a list and some information on 200-year old lodges. His interest stemmed from the upcoming bicentennial celebrations of his lodge and the lack of accessible information on our oldest lodges. His enquiry generated a dialogue back and forth and led to the idea of this publication which I hope will be of use and value to masons and non-masons in Ontario and across the country. We are also, in July 2015, to receive a report on Canada Lodge UD, which had been formed by, and for, our brethren serving in Afghanistan. Formed in a time and place of extreme challenge, sometimes under fire, and far from the quietude of the solace we can achieve in our masonic lodges, I realized that this twenty-first century experience must have parallelled the circumstances of our early brethren in Ontario. The fact that on November 6, 1851, ten members of Moira 11 GRC of Belleville (one of our Bicentennial Lodges), retired from the Lodge to form Trent 38 GRC which in 2010 sponsored Canada Lodge UD, Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan brought this forcefully to mind. Our first lodges in present-day Ontario date from the time of the French and Indian Wars (aka King George’s War) which ended with the capture of the citadel at Quebec (September 1759) and the surrender of Montreal (spring 1760). The question has been asked before “Was there ever Freemasonry in New France before the English?” The answer must be “No. It has never been conclusively proven.” Operative stone masons were employed from a very early date in New France constructing the stone forts of the type seen at Louisbourg and at Quebec City. A very famous mason’s mark (now physically lost to us but well recorded in the archives of several museums, including Toronto’s Royal Ontario Museum) was chiselled on a piece of “trap-rock” measuring 2½ by 2 feet found on the shores of the Bay of Fundy. The mark consisted of a Square and Compasses and the date 1606. Then there is the cross of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, of Rhodes, and of Malta, with the date 1647 inscribed within a Templar shield on a stone shaped like a Keystone, found in 1784 among the debris of the Prioral House of the Order at Quebec. With regard to people we have the reference to the Scotsman, Lord Alexander, Viscount Canada in Acadia in the 17th century. Robert Freke Gould, in his History of Freemasonry (1886), writes that “French Freemasonry is supposed to date from about the year 1725, and as no minutes whatsoever—relating to any earlier period than 1773—are to be found, it is obvious that . the history of its first half century must be open to much doubt (III, p 136).” Later in the same volume, under Chapter XXX, dealing with Masonic Lodges in military forces of a number of independent states, he says of France: “Entombed in the archives of the Grand Orient are the records . of about two hundred Regimental Lodges . .” (III, p 407). With one exception, though, the Lodges date from 1759 to 1787. The earliest military Lodge listed by Gould supposedly dates from 1688 as Loge Parfait Egalité held in le régiment Walsh, an Irish unit. When King Charles II was expelled from England at the end of the Civil War he was accompanied by many Irish soldiers who were known as “Ensignmen” (followers of the Royal Ensign) and one of the military units took the name le régiment Walsh. Gould notes that this Lodge was “legitimized” by the Grand Lodge of France in 1772 and again by the Grand Orient in 1777. But there is no known documentary source. Through my own personal research into Ontario lodges and the various grand lodges which held authority over the area, our earliest masonic lodges date from about 1758. (There were earlier Lodges in the Thirteen Colonies, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, but the focus of this report is on Ontario with particular reference to Quebec before Confederation.) In many cases it is questionable whether these early grand lodges really had any authority given competing methods of establishing and forming lodges which then obtained their own legitimacy through being recognized by other lodges. I should note that while much documentation and records have survived two hundred and more years, many items have been accidentally or deliberately destroyed. While we can regret the loss of documents, buildings and other artefacts from this period, we should more rightly be amazed with the large number which have survived and which give us a better understanding of events of the past. As an aid to readers I have prepared appendices with the individual histories of our Bicentennial Lodges summarized. In a work such as this I have relied on the assistance of a number of people, including Tony Brandon (Niagara No. 2), Scott Bates (The Ancient St. John’s No. 3), Kris Nickerson (The Barton No. 6), Chris Warden (Union No. 7), Ernie Doughty and Allan Hamilton (Union No. 9), Joseph Lewis (Norfolk No. 10), Stan Reid (Moira No. 11), Dan Monteith (St. George’s No. 15), Chris Pelletier (St. John’s No. 17), Alan Capon and David Hickman (Prince Edward No. 18), Jack Peter (King Hiram No. 37) and W.Bro. Rick Fulford (WM of Canada Lodge UD) and R.W.Bro. William Lewis (PDDGM Frontenac District). I thank them publicly for their assistance. But the final writing is mine, as are the opinions expressed herein.

  • Sir Edmund Walker
    SIR EDMUND WALKER C. W. COLBY BORN in 1848, Sir Edmund Walker belonged to the generation which was just coming to manhood when the Dominion of Canada took the place of British North America. As he joined the staff of the Canadian Bank of Commerce less than thirteen months after Confederation, it may be said that his career coincided exactly with the period which has elapsed since Canada undertook to become a nation of the modem world. This fact has more meaning than could be attached to a mere chronological coincidence. It may be associated with the central motive of his life. Starting out at a moment when patriotism was in the air, he became a patriot in the fullest sense. There seems never to have been a time when public spirit did not inspire his aspirations and impel his acts. Through­ out fifty-six years of incessant effort he continued to plan and give and build for the benefit of Canada. Lord Milner has said that when he thinks of the British Empire he does not feel impelled to wave a flag, but rather to go off by him­ self in a corner and pray. Sir Edmund Walker's patriotism was of the same character. At least it lacked wholly the flamboyant quality which one associates with fervid rhetoric and boisterous flag-waving. Moreover with him, as with the Benedictine monk. to labour was to pray. He built up a great bank, and had every possible opportunity to secure information, by the most legitimate means, which through thought and planning could be made to yield large personal profits in cash.

    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.

    THE MOST HONOURABLE ORDER OF THE BATH GCB / KCB / CB X - CB - 2020 PAGES: 59 UPDATED: 01 September 2020 Prepared by: Surgeon Captain John Blatherwick, CM, CStJ, OBC, CD, BSc, MD, FRCP(C), LLD (Hon) ===================================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================================== 1 THE MOST HONOURABLE ORDER OF THE BATH (GCB / KCB / CB) When the Most Illustrious Order of St. Patrick, National Order for Ireland was phased out with the death of the Duke of Gloucester in 1974, the Order of the Bath became the third highest Order of Chivalry. Merit and Service were to be the conditions for admission to this Order as opposed to most admissions to the Garter and Thistle being because of birth and nobility. The Order was founded in 1399 and probably took its name from the preparations for the knighthood ceremony where new knights would purify their inner souls by fasting, vigils and prayer, and then cleansing their body by immersing themselves in a bath. The Order was revived in 1725 as a military order with one class of Knights (K.B.). In 1815, the Order was enlarged to three classes: Knights Grand Cross (GCB) Knights Commander (KCB) Companions (CB) There was a civil division of the Knights Grand Cross while all others were to be military officers. In 1847, a civil division for all three classes was established with numbers set as follows: GCB 95 total 68 military 27 civil KCB 285 total 173 military 112 civil CB 1,498 total 943 military 555 civil The motto of the order is " Tria Juncta in Uno " (Three joined in one) which either refers to the three golden crowns within a golden circle worn on the badge, or the three crowns as symbolic of the Union of England, France and Scotland, or the Union of England, Scotland and Ireland or the Holy Trinity.
