  • Land, Class Formation, and State Consolidation in Winnipeg, 1870-1885
    Land, Class Formation, and State Consolidation in Winnipeg, 1870-1885 by Gustavo F. Velasco A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Joint Master’s Program Department of History University of Manitoba / University of Winnipeg Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 by Gustavo Velasco ABSTRACT The organization of Winnipeg from 1870 until 1885 can be described as an intense period of spatial transformation and expansion. After the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) surrendered Rupert’s Land and the North-West Territories to the Crown in 1870, the re-formulation of land tenure transformed the urban space. Different actors in the still young and small community used diverse mechanisms to secure common land as private property allowing the formation of a dynamic real estate market. The importance of the formation of a main city—the lay out of streets, the construction of government buildings, and the extension of other public works—was of paramount importance in this stage because the city would be the place where the different factions of the emerging bourgeoisie would organize their institutions and through them exercise power. During those years Winnipeg expanded rapidly and the availability of city lots soon became limited. Lot prices soared and land transformed into a commodity generated the conditions for the reproduction and circulation of capital in the city. The arrival of investors and financial institutions helped to create the real estate boom of 1881-82 and transform a small village into a modern capitalist city.

  • Steamboats on the Rivers and Lakes of Manitoba 1859-96
    Economic History Theme Study STEAMBOATS ON THE RIVERS AND LAKES OF MANITOBA 1859-96 Manitoba, NWT 1885. Western Canada Pictorial Index Martha McCarthy Historic Resources Branch 1987 For centuries the rivers and lakes of the present province of Manitoba provided a transport route for native canoes, with many land portages to link the various waters. When European fur-traders arrived, they adopted this aboriginal method as the most practical way to bring in trade goods and carry out fur returns, and continued to utilize these waterways. In the late 18th and early 19th century the North West Company competed with the HBC, using the old route of the voyageurs from Montreal, by the chain of rivers and lakes to Lake Superior, through Manitoba and far past the Saskatchewan into the Athabasca region. This transport route adapted the Native canoes to the purposes of the trans-oceanic fur trade, which linked Quebec to London. The large, heavy canots de maître were used on the Montreal to Grand Portage section of the interior route, while the smaller, lighter canots du nord carried goods far into the north and west, criss-crossing Manitoba en route. With the amalgamation of the North West Company with the Hudson’s Bay Company in 1821, however, this old route of the voyageurs from Montreal to Red River cased to be used for freight, as the reorganized Hudson’s Bay Company preferred its Hudson Bay entrance to the North West. Officials and missionaries from Montreal and Quebec continued to travel west by the water route from Montreal until the 1840s, entering Manitoba by the Winnipeg River; Alexandre Taché came this way on his first journey to the west in 1845, but thereafter traveled by way of St.

  • Historical Walking Tours of Downtown Edmonton in This Booklet
    he Hudson's Bay Company put Edmonton on Tthe map over 200 years ago in 1795 when it built Edmonton House, Edmonton's first permanent settlement and trading post for the first inhabitants who hunted and fished along the North Saskatchewan River. On October 8, 1904, Edmonton was incorporated as a city. 1 There are four Historical Walking Tours of Downtown Edmonton in this booklet. They can be followed individually or in sequence. Tour I Heritage Trail Tour II Jasper West and Warehouse District Tour III Downtown and Rice Howard Way Tour IV Jasper East Fort Edmonton, 1871. (CEA EA-128-3) ackground historical information appears at Bthe beginning of the booklet, and a general introduction and a route map precede each of the tours. Historical connections between buildings are noted in the text. Wherever possible, buildings are referred to by their original name, or by the name of the original occupant or the most prominent occupant. Oftentimes these do not correspond to their current owners or occupants. Please note that some of the buildings on these tours are privately owned and ought to be viewed only from the street. 2 Historical Walking Tours of Downtown Edmonton nthony Henday, a Hudson’s Bay Company A explorer, passed near the site of present- day Edmonton in 1754. His trip was part of the Hudson’s Bay Company’s interest in establishing direct contact with the native population of the interior rather than depending on native middlemen to bring furs to posts located on Hudson’s Bay. This change in policy was caused by competition from free traders and other companies such as the Montreal-based North West Company.

  • Illegitimate Births in Gloucester, MA, 1855-1894
    ILLEGITIMATE BIRTHS IN GLOUCESTER, MA, 1855 – 1894 The term “illegitimacy” is derived from the Latin illegitimus, meaning “not in accordance with the law.” A child is considered illegitimate when it is conceived and born outside of the regulatory sanctions of marriage. In order to facilitate genealogical research the Gloucester, Massachusetts, City Archive department is in the process of building a series of data bases of the births, marriages, and deaths that took place in Gloucester in the last half of the 19th century. As we entered birth information into this data base we wondered what became of those children identified as ‘illegitimate.’ The following is a result of those ruminations. Please note that the figures provided are not conclusive, as during the period 1860 to 1875 the legal status of the child was only sporadically noted in the official records – an interesting fact in and of itself. Also, at the time of this survey, deaths were only available in an easily searchable format for the years between 1851 and 1873. Obtaining the figures from 1874 to 1894 would have consumed more time than was available to this researcher. Nonetheless, certain conclusions can still be drawn from the easily obtainable records. Illegitimate births accounted for less than 1% of the overall births in Gloucester during the thirty-nine years spanned by the survey, and were equally divided between the sexes (108 boys and 107 girls). This figure seems extraordinarily low compared, for instance, to the year 2000 when approximately 26% of all births in Massachusetts were recorded as illegitimate. However, one must take into account various social factors.
