CUMULATIVE INDEX of PUBLICATIONS on MAILLARDVILLE COMPILED BY MAURICE GUIBORD PRÉAMBULE Le présent index contient des entrées provenant des livres énumérés ci-dessous, qui traitent de l’histoire de Maillardville, un village francophone qui est aujourd’hui un quartier de la ville de Coquitlam, en Colombie-Britannique. Le premier livre indexé, soit celui de Paré, fut publié en anglais. L’indexeur a donc choisi l’anglais comme langue de travail pour ce recueil. Ce choix facilitera aussi la tâche aux chercheurs et chercheuses anglophones. L’index est offert aux chercheurs/euses, historiens/ennes, et généalogistes, ainsi qu’à tous ceux et celles qui partagent un intérêt pour l’histoire et le développement du village de Maillardville. D’autres publications y seront ajoutées au fur et à mesure que le travail d’indexation sera effectué. Il faut noter que bien que les trois publications originales de cet index comportent déjà chacune un index, ces derniers ont été augmentés afin d’inclure tous les noms de personnes et de lieux, ainsi que les professions et d’autres détails encore. Si des erreurs ou omissions sont décelées dans le texte, veuillez en faire part à l’indexeur à [email protected]. Bonne recherche ! Maurice Guibord PREAMBLE This index contains listings from the books listed below that deal with the history of Maillardville, a Francophone enclave that lies today within the boundaries of the city of Coquitlam, BC. As the Paré book below was written in English, and was the first publication to be indexed, the indexer chose English as the language for this work. This will also facilitate research by Anglophone researchers. This index is offered for the benefit of researchers, historians, genealogists and all those interested in the history and development of Maillardville. Further books will be added as indexing work is completed. Note that while each of these three original publications does include an index, these indices have been expanded upon to include all names, locations and professions, as well as other details. The indexer would welcome the reporting of any errors or omissions at [email protected] . Enjoy your research! Maurice Guibord 1 BOOKS INCLUDED IN THIS CUMULATIVE INDEX Paré references: If any index reference is NOT preceded by a three-letter code, it refers to the core text of this index: Paré, Antonio G. (Tony), My Memoirs of Le Vieux Maillardville. Self-published, 1997, 356 pages. This book was written and printed in English only. It remains the major compendium of historical information on Maillardville. Regrettably, the author passed away in 2008. Indexed by Maurice Guibord, April 2010. Updated October 2010. Note that the book was published in draft form, so while it is a treasure trove of information, there are discrepancies in the spelling of names. The [sic] notation follows words and names that may have been misspelled or anglicized by the author from the original French spelling. Some misspellings from this book have been corrected when correct spellings have been found elsewhere. This book is available for sale at the Mackin House Museum in Coquitlam, along with other publications by Antonio Paré. http://www.coquitlamheritage.ca/?page_id=2 DEB references: Debeugny, Florence. Maillardville: 100 ans et plus – 100 years and beyond. Société francophone de Maillardville, 2009, 238 pages, plus a CD of a 16-minute film also titled Maillardville: 100 ans et plus – 100 years and beyond. Interestingly, this book covers many second- and third-generation Francophones of Maillardville, thus completing many of the first-generation entries from the Paré book. It is also innovative in that youths and children, as well as seniors, present their personal history. The book is in the form of transcriptions of short oral histories. The author has also presented photographs of each of the 100 participants, in the context of this project which celebrated the 100th anniversary of Maillardville in 2009. The accompanying CD is excellent for its archival images and voice recordings of Maillardville residents. Indexed by Maurice Guibord, October 2010. This index lists entries from the texts that appear in English in the book. As all texts appear in both French and English, the reader should assume that the same entries appear in the French version of the text. This book is available for sale at the Société francophone de Maillardville, http://www.maillardville.com/ , as well as from the Mackin House Museum in Coquitlam, http://www.coquitlamheritage.ca/?page_id=2 . RSM references: Spagnolo, Alexandre and Catou Lévesque. Regards sur Maillardville avec la Liste des mariages célébrés de 1911 à 1950, Vancouver, Société Historique Franco-Colombienne, 1980, 32 pages. Indexed by Maurice Guibord in November-December 2010. Note that some names of Anglophones might have been given French spellings either during the recording of the weddings in the church register, or by the compiler of this book. This book is available for sale from the Société historique francophone de Colombie-Britannique, http://www.shfcb.ca/adheacutesion.html . 2 Listing of women in this index Women are first listed under their maiden name (ex. Leblanc, Lise). If the woman did not marry, the listings referring to her appear under this name. If the woman married (ex. Lise Leblanc married Jean Paré), her married name also appears alphabetically as “Paré, Lise – see Mrs. Jean Paré” and also immediately following her husband’s entry: “Paré, Mrs. Jean (née Lise Leblanc)”. This thus makes it possible to find a woman by any name by which she might have been known. In the case of a married woman, all references to her are listed under this last type of entry, in order that references to a husband and wife remain easily comparable. 3 MAILLARDVILLE PIONEERS The 1909-1910 pioneers of Maillardville appear below, as listed in the Paré text (p.26-27), and on the Pioneers plaque at Carré Héritage, Maillardville.

Indigenous History in Burnaby Resource Guide 6501 Deer Lake Ave, Burnaby, BC V5G 3T6 | 604-297-4565 | burnabyvillagemuseum.ca 2019-06-03 The Burnaby School District is thankful to work, play and learn on the traditional territories of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ and Sḵwxwú7mesẖ speaking people. As we inquire into learning more about the history of these lands, we are grateful to Burnaby Village Museum for working with our host First Nation communities. The knowledge being shared in this resource guide through our local communities supports the teaching and learning happening in our classrooms. It deepens our understanding of the history of our community and will increase our collective knowledge of our host First Nations communities’ history in Burnaby. In our schools, this guide will assist in creating place-based learning opportunities that will build pride for our Indigenous learners through the sharing of this local knowledge, but also increase understanding for our non-Indigenous learners. Through this guide, we can move closer to the Truth and Reconciliation’s Call to Action 63 (i and iii): 63. We call upon the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada to maintain an annual commitment to Indigenous education issues, including: i. Developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Indigenous peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools. iii. Building student capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. We would like extend thanks to Burnaby Village Museum staff for their time and efforts in creating this resource guide.

The trail is to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic and be built to withstand at least a 1 in 10 year flood. The project will be completed in three phases: 1. Phase 1 – Route Selection 2. Phase 2 – Detailed Design 3. Phase 3 – Construction and Post-Construction This letter report provides hydrotechnical input for Phase 1 – Route Selection. Currently, a narrow footpath runs along the top of a berm on the right bank of the river. The trail suffered erosion damage in 2007 and was subsequently closed to the public but is still unofficially in use. Potential future routes include both an inland and river option, as well as combinations of the two. To investigate the feasibility of the different options and help identify the most appropriate trail alignment from a hydrotechnical perspective, NHC was retained to undertake the following Phase I scope of work: • Participate in three meetings. • Attend a site visit. • Estimate different return period river flows and comment on local drainage requirements. • Simulate flood levels and velocities corresponding to the different flows.

    Fraser Valley Geotour: Bedrock, Glacial Deposits, Recent Sediments, Geological Hazards and Applied Geology: Sumas Mountain and Abbotsford Area A collaboration in support of teachers in and around Abbotsford, B.C. in celebration of National Science and Technology Week October 25, 2013 MineralsEd and Natural Resources Canada, Geological Survey of Canada Led by David Huntley, PhD, GSC and David Thompson, P Geo 1 2 Fraser Valley Geotour Introduction Welcome to the Fraser Valley Geotour! Learning about our Earth, geological processes and features, and the relevance of it all to our lives is really best addressed outside of a classroom. Our entire province is the laboratory for geological studies. The landscape and rocks in the Fraser Valley record many natural Earth processes and reveal a large part of the geologic history of this part of BC – a unique part of the Canadian Cordillera. This professional development field trip for teachers looks at a selection of the bedrock and overlying surficial sediments in the Abbotsford area that evidence these geologic processes over time. The stops highlight key features that are part of the geological story - demonstrating surface processes, recording rock – forming processes, revealing the tectonic history, and evidence of glaciation. The important interplay of these phenomena and later human activity is highlighted along the way. It is designed to build your understanding of Earth Science and its relevance to our lives to support your teaching related topics in your classroom. Acknowledgments We would like to thank our partners, the individuals who led the tour to share their expertise, build interest in the natural history of the area, and inspire your teaching.
  • Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013

    Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013

    Early Trail Building in the New Colony of British Columbia — John Hall’s Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013. A recent “find” of colonial correspondence in the British Columbia Archives tells a story about the construction of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails between 1862 and 1864 by pioneer settler John Hall. (In 1870 Hall pre-empted 160 acres of Crown Land on Indian Arm and became Belcarra’s first European settler.) The correspondence involves a veritable “who’s who” of people in the administration in the young ‘Colony of British Columbia’. This historic account serves to highlight one of the many challenges faced by our pioneers during the period of colonial settlement in British Columbia. Sir James Douglas When the Fraser River Gold Rush began in the spring of 1858, there were only about 250 to 300 Europeans living in the Fraser Valley. The gold rush brought on the order of 30,000 miners flocking to the area in the quest for riches, many of whom came north from the California gold fields. As a result, the British Colonial office declared a new Crown colony on the mainland called ‘British Columbia’ and appointed Sir James Douglas as the first Governor. (1) The colony was first proclaimed at Fort Langley on 19th November, 1858, but in early 1859 the capital was moved to the planned settlement called ‘New Westminster’, Sir James Douglas strategically located on the northern banks of the Fraser River.

    George Black — Early Pioneer Settler on the Coquitlam River

    George Black — Early Pioneer Settler on the Coquitlam River Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, December 2018. The ‘Colony of British Columbia’ was proclaimed at Fort Langley on November 19th,1858. In early 1859, Colonel Richard Clement Moody, RE, selected the site for the capital of the colony on the north side of the Fraser River where the river branches. The Royal Engineers established their camp at ‘Sapperton’ and proceeded to layout the future townsite of ‘Queensborough’ (later ‘New Westminster’). On July 17th, 1860, ‘New Westminster’ incorporated to become the first municipality in Western Canada. During the winter of 1858–59, the Fraser River froze over for several months and Colonel Moody realized his position when neither supply boat nor gun-boat could come to his aid in case of an attack. As a consequence, Colonel Moody built a “road” to Burrard Inlet in the summer of 1859 as a military expediency, in order that ships might be accessible via salt water. The “road” was initially just a pack trail that was built due north from ‘Sapperton’ in a straight line to Burrard Inlet. In 1861, the pack trail was upgraded to a wagon road ― known today as ‘North Road’. (1) The ‘Pitt River Road’ from New Westminster to ‘Pitt River Meadows’ was completed in June 1862. (2) In the summer of 1859, (3)(4) the first European family to settle in the Coquitlam area arrived on the schooner ‘Rob Roy’ on the west side of the Pitt River to the area known as ‘Pitt River Meadows’ (today ‘Port Coquitlam’) — Alexander McLean (1809–1889), his wife (Jane), and their two small boys: Alexander (1851–1932) and Donald (1856–1930).

    From the Mill to the Hill: Race, Gender, and Nation in the Making of a French-Canadian Community in Maillardville, Bc, 1909-1939

    FROM THE MILL TO THE HILL: RACE, GENDER, AND NATION IN THE MAKING OF A FRENCH-CANADIAN COMMUNITY IN MAILLARDVILLE, BC, 1909-1939 by Genevieve Lapointe B.A., Universite Laval, 2002 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Sociology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May 2007 © Genevieve Lapointe, 2007 ABSTRACT This study looks at the making of a French-Canadian community in Maillardville, British Columbia, between 1909 and 1939. Drawing on oral history transcripts, as well as textual and visual documents, From the Mill to the Hill explores how complicated and contested relations of race, class, gender, and sexuality intertwined to constitute a French-Canadian identity and community in Maillardville prior to the Second World War. Using critical discourse analysis as methodology, this study examines the narratives of 23 men and women who were interviewed in the early 1970s and lived in Maillardville in the period preceding that war. Newspaper articles, city council minutes, company records, church records, as well as historical photographs culled from various archives and a local museum, also serve as primary documents. From the Mill to the Hill argues that a French-Canadian identity and community was constructed in Maillardville between 1909 and 1939 through the racialization of bodies and spaces. Narratives about the myth of the frontier, the opposite "other," and the racialization of the space in and around the company town of Fraser Mills illustrate how identity construction operated within a gendered and racialized framework. Secondly, this study excavates the fragile "whiteness" of French Canadians as both colonizers and colonized in British Columbia.
