SUMMARY:Oakville Historical Society Speaker Night - The story of St. Mary's Pioneer Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:Hello everyone! \nPlease join us for our first Speaker Night of the year. \nWhen: Wednesday – February 19\, 2025 – 7:30 PM \nWhere: The Coach House on the Erchless Estate (corner of King and Navy) \nWhat: The story of St. Mary’s Pioneer Cemetery. \nFor those interested in Oakville history\, cemeteries\, and genealogical research\, come hear the fascinating story of St. Mary’s Pioneer Cemetery. In 2020\, Ms. Terry Murphy and Mr. Michael Johnson set themselves a goal to find out something about every stone in this park-like home to some of Oakville’s oldest residents. \nThe names on these monuments became people whose stories they felt deserved attention. Here lie people who weathered the crises of the past two centuries\, gave birth to families\, started businesses that laid the foundations of Oakville\, and built the community we have inherited. The worn and broken stones called out with particular poignancy. Who were the individuals who donated their hard-earned money to erect\, with such deep affection\, these memorials to their loved ones? \nTerry will review the “detective” tools they found most helpful in identifying many previously illegible (and even buried) stones. What began as a challenge became a labour of love\, as the residents of the cemetery became family. The more they researched\, the more they realized how story-rich the cemetery is and how important it is to preserve pioneer cemeteries. \nPlease come early as seating is limited. \nSee you all there!

SUMMARY:Toronto's First Post Office Speaker Series: Historical Curiosities with Dr. Jane McGaughey
DESCRIPTION:Join historian Dr. Jane McGaughey as she discusses the life and times of Colonel James FitzGibbon\, one of the best-known soldiers in 19th century Upper Canada\, and a familiar face to many in Toronto. Arriving in in the colony as a dashing young officer\, he further earned the public’s esteem for his roles in stemming sectarian violence\, helping others during the cholera epidemic of 1832\, and defending Toronto from rebels in 1837. In private\, he lived a life of adventure\, romance\, and tragedy more befitting a character from a Jane Austen or Bridgerton novel. Given all that\, Dr. Jane McGaughey will ask the pertinent question as to why James Fitzgibbon has become one of the more forgotten characters in Canada’s past. This event will be hosted online and pre-registration is required!

SUMMARY:Albion Bolton Historical Society Presentation "Stand by Your Man (more or less): The Wives of Canada’s Prime Ministers"
DESCRIPTION:At the ABHS meeting on Monday February 10 noted historian Ken Weber will discuss a number of truly interesting women who have accompanied their spouses to the peak of Canada’s political landscape and how they approached their role as prime minister’s wife in quite different ways. Several wives were supportive helpmates while some others came to dislike the position intensely and tried to remain hidden. Interestingly despite the incredible pressures put on marriages that are in the public eye\, to date there have been no less than five great love matches among Canada’s prime ministral couples. \nThis is sure to be an entertaining and interesting presentation. Hope to see you there! \nThis evening will also include the Annual General Meeting. Many of the current executive have decided to put their names forward for 2025 but we need a secretary and a director to have a full slate. Please consider volunteering. \nYour 2025 membership is due in February and will remain at $10 per year and guests at $5 per visit. \nQuestions: Contact Nathan Hiller at nhillerphoto@bell.net or 905-584-2801.

The organization had only begun in London England in 1865 under the Leadership of William and Catherine Booth. Who are these people and how did this organization spread so quickly as an international movement? \nLearn the origins and the motivation of this organization that still keep it moving forward today. In how many countries does it operate?  Perhaps the more important question for the local residents will be the progress of the Army here in Woodstock. You will be introduced to some of the colourful characters. Bring any questions you may have about this group of people and Elaine will endeavour  to answer them.”

SUMMARY:Caledon Public Library: Celebrating Black History Month with Captain Kevin Junor
DESCRIPTION:Caledon Public Library is proud to host Captain Kevin Junor as he leads a presentation followed by a Q&A session about the No 2 Construction Battalion in World War 1. \nOn 5 July 1916\, the Department of Defence and Militia authorized the formation of No. 2 Construction Battalion. It was the largest Black unit in Canadian history. Its members continued the proud tradition of service to king and country that went back to the American Revolution and continued through the War of 1812 and the Rebellions of 1837–38 to the start of the First World War. \nCaptain Kevin Junor (retired) has a career with the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Reserves that spans over three decades. He enrolled as a private and progressed through the ranks to be a chief warrant officer\, the most senior non-commissioned rank and was appointed the Regimental Sergeant Major (RSM). He is a commissioned officer and was deployed on two operational tours of duties to Sierra Leone and Jordan. Kevin is a retired Deputy Superintendent from the Ministry of the Solicitor General. He is active in the community and has chaired and served on a number of boards\, including the Policing Advisory Council of Caledon.
