SUMMARY:UEL Association of Canada - Governor Simcoe Branch (Virtual and In-Person): December 2022 Meeting
DESCRIPTION:“A Biography of Charles William Jefferys” — Presentation by Richard Fiennes-Clinton \nIn-person and on Zoom; Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcrcu2hqjMpH9U-HYnzfkzJwg6_0TokV_Gv \nCharles William Jefferys was an illustrator who is best remembered for his drawings\, sketches and paintings of Canadian history. In the 1920s\, 1930s and 1940s\, he published several books of meticulously researched historical imagery. This work included information about the United Empire Loyalists. Later critics have objected that Jefferys’ work is “too old fashioned”\, or not culturally sensitive enough. In this biography\, we will examine this part of his legacy too\, and explore the lasting value of Jeffery’s work. \nRichard Fiennes-Clinton has operated an historical walking tour company called “Muddy York Walking Tours” for many years. He is also the recent author of a book on Toronto’s early history called Muddy York: A History of Toronto Until 1834. \nRichard has made a number of presentations to Gov. Simcoe Branch on a variety of topics related to the history of Toronto. The well-researched content is presented on numerous slides; his rapid presentation style allows him to cover a lot of material. \nThe meeting will take place in the downstairs meeting room at St. David’s Church\, 49 Donlands (please note\, NOT St. David’s Towers at 51 Donlands).\nIf you plan to attend in person\, RSVP to Anne Neuman at anneneuman@hotmail.com or 905-888-1278.

SUMMARY:Town of York Historical Society: Tales of Christmas Past
DESCRIPTION:Join us on December 8th for a festive evening as we learn about the Christmas traditions of days gone by! \nMany of us who celebrate Christmas have traditions that we feel are steeped and time honoured. But most of them aren’t as old as we might think. Hardly any of the Christmas traditions that we know today were widely celebrated when the Town of York was founded back in 1793\, and can instead be dated to the Victorian era. But we’ll also look back at a time\, before the Town of York even started\, that Christmas was outlawed and celebrating it was illegal. Whether you’re passionate about putting up the Christmas decorations\, or like to channel your inner Scrooge\, you’ll be sure to find something of interest in this presentation! \nAbout the Speaker: \nRichard Fiennes-Clinton has been involved in the local Toronto historical community for over 30 years. He gives walking tours all across Toronto\, but has also organized a lot of archival material\, which he uses to give illustrated talks on more than 200 years of Toronto history. He is also the author of a book called “Muddy York – A History of Toronto Until 1834”\, copies of which are available for purchase at Toronto’s First Post Office.
