  • Re-Imagining Niagara: a Spatial Study of Economic Development (1783-1812)
    Re-imagining Niagara: A Spatial Study of Economic Development (1783-1812) by Jessica Linzel, B.A. Department of History Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Faculty of Humanities, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © 2020 Abstract The end of the American Revolution marked a turning point in the history of Niagara. In the span of three decades, this Upper Canadian district evolved as the territory of nomadic groups of Mississauga and Haudenosaunee nations into the post-war settlement of approximately 15,000 white, black, and British-allied Indigenous nations. Some arrived immediately as refugees of the late war, while other families came later in hopes of securing a brighter future. Historians generally discuss this period of Niagara’s history in terms of its socio-political developments, while economic histories of the “Loyalist Era” are most often assigned a broader lens focusing on trade and commerce in Upper Canada. To fill this historiographical gap, this paper investigates the economic developments within the Niagara region from 1783-1812, using geographic information systems (GIS) to analyze the role of geography alongside human agency in commodity production and the formation of local trade networks. This thesis includes an interactive webmap used to analyze a carefully compiled geospatial database of commodity sales gathered from primary sources. Historical GIS sets this project apart from others by bringing the investigations back to the land, showing how farmers and merchants responded to natural barriers like distance, wetlands, elevation and soil type, inciting individuals to adapt according to their personal circumstances. Ultimately, this project illustrates Niagara’s post-war transition from its role as a transshipment point in a larger transatlantic trade system into a productive agrarian economy by the early 19th century.

  • The Grand River Haudenosaunee and Canada in Caledonia, Ontario
    WHAT’S AT STAKE ON (UN)COMMON GROUND? THE GRAND RIVER HAUDENOSAUNEE AND CANADA IN CALEDONIA, ONTARIO by LAURA ALICE DeVRIES B.Sc. (Hon), University of Ottawa, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Resource Management and Environmental Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2009 © Laura Alice DeVries, 2009 ABSTRACT Caledonia, Ontario made the news on February 28, 2006 as broadcasters reported on a strategically planned ‘occupation’ by Haudenosaunee protestors from the nearby Six Nations territory of a half‐finished forty‐hectare housing development known as Douglas Creek Estates. Negotiations over ownership of (and compensation for) Six Nations’ twenty‐ eight unaddressed land claims began shortly after the Ontario Provincial Police attempted and failed to remove the Six Nations occupiers, who assert that the land was not surrendered in the 1840s as Canada claims it was. The reclamation effort sparked tremendous controversy in Caledonia and across Canada; negotiations have achieved no resolution at the time of writing, and conflicts over land and resource rights are increasing in frequency and intensity both in Southern Ontario and across the continent. This thesis undertakes a discourse analysis of texts publicly circulated by the involved parties to discover the underpinnings of the dispute, to link it to histories of Haudenosaunee and Euro‐Canadian settler societies, and to generate insights regarding future Canadian‐ First Nations relationships. Competing claims to the land evidenced in these texts also constitute conflicting visions as to definitions of legitimacy, sovereignty, justice, citizenship and ‘normal’ society.

  • Brant's Ford, Was a “Whiteman Reserve”
    2/6/2020 Brant’s Ford, was a “whiteman reserve” Brant’s Ford, was a “whiteman reserve” December 26, 2018 Jim Windle Six Nations Haldimand Tract lands were being gobbled up at an alarming pace following the death of Joseph Brant on Nov. 7th of 1807. It had begun long before that, with the 1793, Simcoe Patent when 230,000 acres of the decreed Haldimand Tract, six miles on either side of the Grand River from source to mouth, Six Nations Haldimand Tract lands were being gobbled up at an alarming pace following the death of Joseph Brant on Nov. 7th of 1807. It had begun long before that, with the 1793, Simcoe Patent when 230,000 acres of the decreed Haldimand Tract, six miles on either side of the Grand River from source to mouth, as the proclamation stated. Following Brant’s death and after countless petitions put forth by the Confederacy Chiefs to order non-Native squatters off their land, William Hepburn made steps to correct this growing problem and ordered that anyone with a purported Brant Lease should gather their lease agreements and supporting papers to prove it in fact was a Brant Lease or a fraud. Some leases produced were dated after Joseph Brant’s death, and still others were not presented at all. In fact, out of 172 claims of having a Brant Lease, only nine could actually produce any supporting documentation. Two more calls to squatters for proof of their alleged Brant Leases went out from Hepburn’s office in the form of posters nailed to trees and post offices and general stores throughout the area.

  • Herons and Cobblestones
    2010CB002 Herons and Cobblestones A History of Five Oaks and the Bethel Area Of Brantford Township, County of Brant Written and Published by Members of the Grand River Heritage Mines Society In Celebration of Their Tenth Anniversary Jean Farquharson, Editor and Compiler Paris, Ontario May, 2003 -1- Provided by the Grand River Heritage Mines Society 2010CB002 INTRODUCTION In 1993, the Grand River Heritage Mines Society was formed to locate, record and preserve artifacts, history and heritage of the gypsum mining and milling industry in the Grand River Watershed. This includes the geology and natural history associated with the mine sites, and stories of the people involved. The Society was founded by lIse Kraemer and myself as the result of our investigations to document the Paris Plaster Mines at a hearing of the Ontario Municipal Board. The fascinating details tempted us to continue our research and form the Society. We were encouraged by the Resident Geologist from the London office of the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, Bern Feenstra. We created research and field trip committees to explore for the old mines. We held public meetings and produced displays for a variety of shows, and spoke to various organizations. We worked with other heritage organizations -- LACAC, the Paris Historical Society, York Grand River Historical Society, and Dunnville Historical Society- and networked with other organizations We published a regular newsletter which has been produced ever since we organized. In 1996, lIse and I were invited to teach an Elderhostel at Five Oaks about the natural environment and history of the area.
