To succeed this semester, we will have to put a lot of effort into our school work. With all the snow covering the schoolyard each year, we will again be able to design a huge slide behind the school. Eventually, we will build snow forts and play in them. This is going to be a great winter! Justine and Catherine 5 Metis 200 : It started with the first settlers in 1818... Every month over the coming year, Heritage Lower St. Lawrence will publish a timeline featuring some of the key dates in the history of Metis and some historical highlights to celebrate Metis’ 200th anniversary. Our goal is to bring the history alive by allowing some of the early settlers and others Metissers to speak directly to you . If you have texts, illustrations or photos to submit to the project, please send them to Pamela Andersson at pandersson @heritagelsl.ca John MacNider’s Metis The Seigneurie de Mitis or Seigneurie de Peiras was granted by the Governor of New France in 1675, but like many seigneuries in eastern Quebec it had never been settled. John Macnider began to develop the Metis seigneurie by bringing emigrants from his native Scotland. His sailing ship the Rebecca brought settlers from his native Scotland in 1818. Another voyage brought additional families again in 1823. MacNider is credited with settling the region and founding the communities that would become Grand-Métis, Métis-sur-Mer, Les Boules and Baie-des-Sables. Portrait of John Macnider , MacNider was not the first to recognize the potential of the region.

This account is written by surveyor Joseph Bouchette who visited Metis in the 1800s in which he reveals much about MacNider and his early efforts at colonization: “….Mr. McNider has erected mills and stores, and dwelling-houses intended for the reception of travellers. He has built a schooner to ply to Quebec; and one or two square-rigged vessels have been also built. The chief set- tlements are at Little Mitis, on a point formed by the St. Lawrence and a deep bay to the S.E., which receives the waters of the R[iver] Little Mitis – The lands in the vicinity of this bay, although of a rather light soil, are rendered extremely fertile by the genial moisture of the sea air, and the efficacy of the sea weed which abounds on the shores and is used as manure.

  • Rural Manufacture in Lower Canada: Understanding Seigneurial Privilege and the * Transition in the Countryside David Schulze
    Rural Manufacture in Lower Canada: Understanding Seigneurial Privilege and the * Transition in the Countryside David Schulze The paper is a discussion of the theoretical implications of capitalist production based on seigneurial privilege in late eighteenth and early nineteenth century Quebec. This phenomenon is evaluated in the context of the Marxist analysis of the transition to capitalism. While earlier interpretations have characterized such production as essentially mercantile and/or feudalistic, the author considers that it matches Marx's description of the transitional phenomenon of manufacture , the form of capital's first appearance. L'article est une discussion des implications theoriques de la production capitaliste basee sur le privilege seigneurial au Quebec, a la fin du dix-huitieme et au debut du dix-neuvieme siScles. Ce phenomene est apparent dans le contexte de l'analyse marxiste de la transition au capitalisme. Tandis que les interpretations anterieures ont traite cette production d'essentiellement marchande et/ou feodaliste, elle se range a la description par Marx du phenomene de transition qui est la manufacture , la forme de la premiere apparition du capital. * Theory: The transition The nineteenth century saw the emergence of industrial capitalism in Quebec (Lower Canada); that much is acknowledged by any historian of the period. This implied a transition from a predominantly rural society specializing in agricultural production to a predominantly urban one, characterized by industrial production. Marxist analyses

  • La Mixité Culturelle Au Sein Des Élites Québécoises Au Xixe Siècle : L'exemple De La Famille Marchand, 1791-1900
    La mixité culturelle au sein des élites québécoises au XIXe siècle : l’exemple de la famille Marchand, 1791-1900 Mémoire Alex Tremblay Maîtrise en histoire Maître ès Arts (M. A.) Québec, Canada © Alex Tremblay, 2014 Résumé Ce mémoire met en lumière la mixité culturelle au sein des élites québécoises entre 1791 et 1900 en se penchant sur une de ses dimensions les plus intimes : la famille. En nous penchant sur l’exemple de la famille de l’ancien premier ministre Félix-Gabriel Marchand, nous montrons que ces couples s’inscrivent dans les mêmes stratégies de reproduction sociale que les élites endogames. Toutefois, la mixité les amène à revoir les structures familiales et à adopter une culture mixte qui n’est pas très éloignée de chacun des deux milieux. En effet, les élites partagent une culture commune tout en ayant leurs particularités à cette époque. En nous appuyant essentiellement sur la correspondance de cette famille et, dans une moindre mesure, sur le journal intime de Joséphine Marchand, nous montrons également que les enfants nés de ces unions adoptent rapidement la culture d’un des deux parents – dans ce cas-ci, celle du père. Cependant, cela ne les empêche pas de conserver une plus grande ouverture au groupe ethnolinguistique duquel est issu leur second parent et de s’imposer comme un pont entre ces deux communautés. iii iv Table des matières RÉSUMÉ III TABLE DES MATIERES V LISTE DES TABLEAUX VII ABRÉVIATIONS VII REMERCIEMENTS XII INTRODUCTION 1 I.

  • Behind the Name…
    Behind the Name… Shakespeare said: ‘What’s in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet…”. Well, Metis’s wild roses certainly do smell sweet, but we think that place names at least do have special meanings to people who grew up in an area. Local residents provide the most useful geographical reference system referring to a place, a piece of land, or a natural landmark. The consistency and accuracy of names used becomes essential in referring to a place or landmark, which helps to prevent confusion in a specific area. Whether it be verbal or written, past or present, place names of lands, bodies of water, or landmarks connect us to each other and to our past. The names also may evidence an event in certain places, as well as providing generations with a link to folklore tales and legends that have been passed down – narratives that explain the origins of place names in a community. Although today the origin of many place names is now forgotten, it is often possible to establish likely meanings through consideration of early forms of ancestors' names. This summary has been prepared from sources to be reliable; if you have additional information or corrections, please contact Pam Andersson, Heritage Lower Saint Lawrence Community Liaison & Archive Coordinator, [email protected]; (418) 936-3239, ext. 221. Place Names of Lands Land is a particular geographical location of ground with reference to its nature or composition. Some can be seen from a distance and the name describes the place, while others have a less visible, but no less significant historical event behind their name.

  • Étude De Potentiel Archéologique Mrc De La Matapédia
    ÉTUDE DE POTENTIEL ARCHÉOLOGIQUE MRC DE LA MATAPÉDIA Avril 2014 ÉTUDE DE POTENTIEL ARCHÉOLOGIQUE MRC DE LA MATAPÉDIA Avril 2014 ÉTUDE DE POTENTIEL ARCHÉOLOGIQUE MRC DE LA MATAPÉDIA Étude présentée par : Ruralys 1650 rue de la Ferme Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière (Québec) G0R 1Z0 Téléphone : 418-856-6251 [email protected] www.ruralys.org Avril 2014 RÉSUMÉ La MRC de La Matapédia occupe un emplacement stratégique entre la baie des Chaleurs et le fleuve Saint-Laurent. C’est pourquoi, à l’époque où l’Empire britannique craignait une invasion de sa colonie nord-américaine par les États-Unis, elle a jugé bon d’y aménager une voie d’accès que pourraient emprunter ses troupes. Sur de longs segments, le tracé de cette route se superposa à l’emprise d’un sentier de portage façonné par les Amérindiens, probablement depuis des millénaires. L’ouverture de cet axe de circulation au début des années 1830, le chemin Kempt, permit la colonisation de ce terroir, mais cette dernière a tardé. En effet, il a fallu attendre l’essor de l’industrie forestière à partir des années 1860, pour que des familles s’y installent et qu’enfin naissent des villages dans la région. L’apport de l’histoire de la MRC de La Matapédia à celle du Bas-Saint-Laurent, de la Gaspésie et du Québec est indéniable. Toutefois, et contrairement à bien d’autres territoires limitrophes, aucun site archéologique n’y a été localisé à ce jour. Pourtant, son terreau aurait déjà dû révéler la présence de vestiges d’occupations amérindiennes aussi anciennes que 10 000 ans AA et d’établissements eurocanadiens des 18e et 19e siècles.
