  • Women and the War of 1812 in Upper Canada
    ''Wants and Privations'': Women and the War of 1812 in Upper Canada GEORGE SHEPPARD* Most accounts of Canada's pre-modern conflicts present women as either heroes or victims. This preliminary investigation of the immediate impact of the War of 1812 reveals that wartime experiences were far more heterogeneous. Many Upper Canadians were inconvenienced by the fighting, primarily because militia service made pioneer fanning more difficult. Hundreds of other residents suffered immensely due to the death and destruction inflicted by particulclr campaigns. A great number of women were affected only marginally by the fighting, however, and some actually benefited from the war. For some, the war brought increased profits from sales of goods to the military, as well as unprecedented opportunities for employment, courting, and excitement. lA plupart des documents reUJtanJ les conflits premodernes du Canada depeignent les femmes comme des heroines ou des victimes. Cette etude preliminaire de l'impact immediaJ de la Guerre de 1812 brosse un portrait nenement plus hiterogene de leur vie en temps de guerre. Les combats perturbaient de nombreux Hauts-Canadiens, surtout parce que le service militaire compliquait /'agriculture au temps de la colonisation. Des centaines d'autres etaient cruellement eprouves par l£l mort et les ravages causes par certaines campagnes. Mais de nombreuses femmes souffraient peu de la guerre, en beneficiant meme dans certains cas. En effet, certaines encaissaient davantage de profits grlJce a l£l vente de marchandises aux militaires et voyaient comme jamais auparavanJ les possibilites d'emploi, les courtisans et les moments exaltants se bousculer a Jeurs portes. ON NOVEMBER 21, 1815, Sussanah Jessup of Augusta County, Upper Canada, put the finishing touches to a letter addressed to Gordon Drum­ mond, former administrator of the colony.

  • Brockton's Name Recalls Isaac Brock's Cousin James
    The Newsletter of the Friends of Fort York and Garrison Common v. 13 No. 1 Mar. 2009 1 Brockton’s Name Recalls Isaac Brock’s 6 Administrator’s Report Cousin James 6 Council Approves Design Team for 3 Henry Bowyer Lane’s Fort at Toronto, 1842 June Callwood Park 3 Conversation with Colin Upton 7 First Steps to Renewing the Fort 4 In Review 8 Upcoming Events 5 New Committee Chair Brockton’s Name Recalls Isaac Brock’s Cousin James Dan Brock, John England, Gillian Lenfestey, Stephen Otto, Guy St-Denis and Stuart Sutherland contributed to this article. Many ordinary people enjoy more than Andy Warhol’s fifteen minutes of fame before resuming their modest lives. James Brock’s time in the limelight of Upper Canada lasted about fifteen months from October 1811 until late 1812, but left a lasting mark on Toronto. Paradoxically, his imprint on the city in the name of ‘Brockton’ has proven more indelible than Brock Street, as lower Spadina was called until 1884 in honour of his famous kinsman, Sir Isaac Brock. Frequently said to be Isaac’s brother or nephew, James was actually a first cousin. Isaac’s father John and James’s father Henry were brothers. James was born at St. Peter Port, Guernsey, on April 3 1773, to Henry Brock and Suzanne de Sausmarez, both members of prominent families. He was raised in comfortable circumstances in “Belmont,” a large house with extensive grounds, and likely began his education in one of the local clergy-run schools where he was taught in French, the working language on the island until the late 19th century.

Il s’appuie sur une culture de l’imprimé au DOI : https://doi.org/10.7202/1025076ar Haut-Canada qui s’inspirait de façons de faire répandues, surtout aux États-Unis, et qui s’y opposait. Si les journaux des États-Unis ont parlé Aller au sommaire du numéro ouvertement de violence sexuelle contre les Américaines durant la Guerre de 1812, les sources du Haut-Canada ont eu tendance à réprimer le sujet, pour des raisons qui traduisent de profondes différences culturelles et politiques. Les Éditeur(s) Américains manifestaient un patriotisme populaire et exubérant dont les Canadiens se méfiaient et voulaient s’éloigner. L’analyse de ces différences The Canadian Historical Association / La Société historique du Canada nationales est replacée dans le contexte de vastes changements dans la façon dont le viol était appréhendé dans la presse et les tribunaux durant la première e ISSN moitié du XIX siècle, au moment où la voix des femmes était muselée dans l’espace public. Pourtant, la plus célèbre héroïne de cette guerre, Laura Secord, 0847-4478 (imprimé) ne s’est pas tue.

  • Title: Letters from Agnes Fitzgibbon to Henry James Morgan, 1861 Creator: Agnes Fitzgibbon Dates of Material: August/September
    Title: Letters from Agnes Fitzgibbon to Henry James Morgan, 1861 Creator: Agnes Fitzgibbon Dates of August/September, 1861 Record Group RG 652 Material: Number: Summary of Contents: Two letters to Henry James Morgan from Agnes Fitzgibbon, dated at Toronto, 1861. The first letter is dated August 20, 1861 and marked “private”. The letter mostly discusses a box of books written by Ferdinand Brock Tupper on Isaac Brock, and her family’s efforts to dispose of the books. The possibility of writing a biography of Colonel [James] Fitzgibbon is also mentioned. The second letter is dated September 1861 and mostly discusses the writings of her mother, Susanna Moodie, and aunt, Catharine Parr Traill. Transcripts of the letters follow. *************************************************************** Private Toronto August 20, 1861 My Dear Sir, As Mr. Fitzgibbon is engaged the greater part of the day in his office and not very partial to writing when he comes home he generally expects(?) me to answer all private letters. I send you by express the volumes you desire. These books I may say have been a thorn in our sides for many years. Mr. Fitzgibbons brother William brought them out from England about ten years ago—but dying only a few months after his return we were unconscious of their existence till the Colonel mentioned them in one of his letters. Some years afterwards while on a visit in Belleville to my mother (Mrs. Moodie) I heard that there were some cases of books & c in Papers Office in the Court House which had been removed from the Office of the late “Clerk of the Peace” (William Fitzgibbon) and placed there.
