SUMMARY:Kingston Historical Society Presents Dr. Tim Cook: "Forgetting\, Remembering and Remaking Canada's Second World War"
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, best-selling author Tim Cook will talk about his book\, The Fight for History\, and will discuss the strange way that Canada chose to ignore for decades its epic contributions during the Second World War. Despite 1.1 million Canadians who served in uniform\, and millions more who supported the total war effort from the home front\, Canada rapidly left the war behind\, publishing few histories\, building fewer monuments\, and advancing into the prosperous second half of the twentieth century\, Dr. Cook will talk about the neglect of our Second World War history until quite recently\, and highlight the key role of veterans in reclaiming this important legacy of service and sacrifice. \nDr. Cook is the acting director of historical research at the Canadian War Museum. He was the curator of the museum’s First World War permanent gallery and he has curated numerous temporary\, travelling and digital exhibitions. Cook is the author or editor of 13 books and they have won the C.P. Stacey Prize for Military History (twice)\, the Ottawa Book Prize (three times)\, the RBC Taylor Prize for Literary Non-Fiction\, and the L.W. Dafoe Book Prize (twice). In 2012\, Dr. Cook was awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contributions to Canadian history and in 2013 the Governor-General’s History Prize. He is a frequent commentator in the media\, a member of the Royal Society of Canada\, and a Member of the Order of Canada. \nTo register\, and to receive all the details of how to connect\, please email Paul van Nest at pvannest@cogeco.ca.

SUMMARY:Catharine Parr Traill on Enjoying and Surviving a Canadian Winter
DESCRIPTION:Catharine Parr Traill’s genteel life in England did not prepare her at all for life on the frontier in Ontario in the mid-1800s. But one of the ways she found to support her family in her new world was to write about her experience for other immigrants. Her writings both public and private deal with the many joys and tribulations of the wintery backwoods in early Canada. \nTraill had practical advice for her readers\, from maintaining a yeast supply to choosing a parlour stove to sewing a warm cloak. She revealed much about bottling\, pickling\, smoking and hunting foods for the mid-nineteenth century pantry\, then making winter meals. Her how-to advice benefited many immigrants unprepared for the cold and ice\, as she had been once unprepared\, but she also came to love the sparkling snow in her Canadian wilderness. \nFiona Lucas\, who with Nathalie Cooke\, co-edited Catharine Parr Traill’s Female Emigrant’s Guide: Cooking with a Canadian Classic (2017)\, speaks knowledgeably and entertainingly on Traill’s experience and writings. Her half hour presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.

SUMMARY:Myseum of Toronto Presents "Beyond Just Words: A Land Acknowledgement Workshop"
DESCRIPTION:A participatory workshop that explores our relationship(s) to land acknowledgements and re-evaluates how we can make them more meaningful. \nYou’ve heard them before. From attending an event in the city\, or hearing one online you hear: “Welcome\, thank you for coming”\, a brief land acknowledgement read from their phone is recited for the one hundredth time\, and finally housekeeping notes before the event begins. And while what land acknowledgements represent are beyond important\, they can often feel impersonal and superficial. \nJoin facilitators Leslie McCue and Lindy Kinoshameg for this virtual “hands on” participatory workshop where you will learn: \nThe history of agreements and treaties that were made and broken. \n\nPronunciations of Nations.\nExamining who you are\, and your relationship with the land that sustains you.\nYou will have the opportunity to work independently and in small groups (Zoom breakout rooms) to explore\, research\, and develop a more meaningful connection when you are acknowledging and caring for this land.\n\nThis workshop aims to not only help you look beyond your current relationship with land acknowledgements\, but realize deeper possibilities for them; enhancing your appreciation for and understanding of Indigenous histories and cultures. \nWhile this workshop provides some necessary knowledge and resources\, it is intended to be an entry point into lifelong learning. \nFor more information\, please visit this website: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/beyond-just-words-a-land-acknowledgement-workshop-tickets-141885269661.

SUMMARY:Kingston Historical Society Presents Marc Seguin: "The Lighthouses of Kingston: Guiding Ships through the Graveyard of Lake Ontario\, 1828 to 1914"
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the 19th century\, Kingston was the most important shipping port on the Great Lakes and ships sailing to or from Lake Ontario had to navigate through some of the world’s most dangerous waters\, an area that became known as “the graveyard of Lake Ontario.” Over the course of 85 years\, more than 45 lighthouses were built on the Canadian side of eastern Lake Ontario. These aids to navigation contributed immeasurably to the prosperity of Kingston and to the economic development of Canada. This talk is drawn from the speaker’s book For Want of a Lighthouse: Guiding Ships Through the Graveyard of Lake Ontario. \nMarc Seguin brings his lifelong interest in history together with a passion for Canada’s built heritage to this talk on the early lighthouses of Kingston and eastern Lake Ontario. Marc holds a degree in history from the University of Western Ontario and is a founding member of the lighthouse preservation organization “Save Our Lighthouses.” He has authored two books focusing on Lake Ontario: For Want of a Lighthouse: Guiding Ships through the Graveyard of Lake Ontario & The Cruise of The Breeze: The Journal and Life of a Victorian Soldier in Canada. Marc lives on the shores of Wellers Bay in Prince Edward County with his wife and two sons.

SUMMARY:What Gravestones Can Tell You About Your Ancestors: A Genealogists Guide
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Lennox and Addington County Museum and Archives \nGenealogists know information retrieved from gravestones has a practical application to identify the deceased. However\, gravestones\, as a research tool\, can offer up more information about your ancestors when interpreted correctly. Besides functioning as a memorial to the deceased\, gravestones provide insight into nineteenth and twentieth century life. The visual imagery of the gravestone motifs functions as a decorative element\, which reaffirm the position of the deceased within the community and celebrate relationships. On an artistic level\, gravestones offer insights into popular culture. Motifs were specifically chosen by the carver or family members to communicate messages about the departed and their significance in the community. \nIn an era when illiteracy was common\, carvers relied on the symbols to convey messages of mortality and spirituality to those unable to read. Themes relating to life\, death and the hope for everlasting life are just some of the messages portrayed on the stones. Discover the clues and information that gravestones can reveal about your ancestors and the world in which they lived. \nAbout the Presenter: \nLaura Suchan\, Executive Director at the Oshawa Museum\, will be presenting on her work with gravestones in Ontario for this special Zoom meeting. Laura has been the Executive Director for the last 25 years and has spoken publicly at provincial\, national and international conferences.

SUMMARY:Jane E. MacNamara: Life on the Farm\, Your Ancestor‘s Place in Ontario Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Lennox and Addington County Museum and Archives \nWe often think of farming as a traditional occupation—something that hasn’t really changed much. But that is not and was never the case. Farmers had to react and adapt to changing conditions like climate\, technology\, economics\, new markets and new competitors. Some farmers did more than adapt. They set out to be the most productive by innovating with new techniques and processes\, products\, and marketing. Farm journals and business records survive in many archives. Farmers may have had help and encouragement along the way from agricultural associations\, community groups\, government agencies\, or private patrons. Digitization of many of the records of these pro-agriculture organizations has made them a viable source to help us understand the changes that were happening around our farming ancestors—and whether they were leading the way or following the pack. \nAbout the Presenter: \nJane E. MacNamara\, Toronto\, is the author of Inheritance in Ontario: Wills and other Records for Family Historians (OGS/Dundurn) and writes about genealogy at wherethestorytakesme.ca. A longtime member of the Ontario Genealogical Society\, Jane lectures about research methodology\, Ontario\, and English family history to genealogical and historical groups throughout southern Ontario. She teaches courses for Toronto Branch OGS\, most notably hands-on courses about Ontario records.

SUMMARY:Kingston Historical Society Presents Dr. Tabitha Renaud: "Without Words: The Communication Barrier between Indigenous Peoples and the Earliest European Explorers in North America"
DESCRIPTION:For hundreds of years historians have glossed over how First Peoples and the earliest European explorers communicated with one another during their first meetings. How did they convey information back and forth? How effective was this process? This talk returns to seminal episodes of “first encounter” to closely examine how people in reality communicated and how our broadening understanding of this earliest interaction between the settler society and our First Nations can change traditional historical interpretations and why it matters so vitally today. \nDr. Tabitha Renaud completed her PhD in history at Queen’s University under the supervision of Dr. Jane Errington and specialized in studying early encounters between Indigenous peoples and European explorers in the Americas. Tabitha serves as the Managing Director and chair of the Murney Tower Museum Committee as well as a Councillor of the Kingston Historical Society. She has also volunteered with the Kingston Association of Museums\, Galleries and Historic Sites (KAM)\, Kingston Regional Heritage Fair\, Beyond Classrooms Kingston\, Smiths Falls Heritage house Museum Advisory Board and the Lower Burial Ground Restoration Society. \nTo register\, and to receive all the details of how to connect\, please email Paul van Nest at pvannest@cogeco.ca.

SUMMARY:The Canadian Archaeologist Who Collected 4500 Beer Cans
DESCRIPTION:Dr. David Maxwell\, archaeologist & collector\, discusses what he’s learned about contemporary culture from the discarded cans of beers-past. \nAbout this Event\nWhat does our garbage say about us? As a young anthropologist and archaeologist\, Dr. David Maxwell studied Mayan votive offerings and what they tell us about Mayan cultural and political history; but not all cultural relics have to be ancient ! Dr. Maxwell discovered this at the tender age of 11 when he started collecting beer cans discarded on the side of the road. These cans sparked an interest in the history of the cans themselves\, the beer\, and the brewing companies. This collection led to a fascination and understanding of our society’s changing approach to litter\, recycling\, what we define as “garbage.” \nDr. Maxwell’s collection became a lifelong passion and eventually swelled to over 4\,500 cans—now whittled down to just under 2\,000 due to storage constraints. Grab a cold one and join us for an evening chat about the most Canadian of topics – beer! \nDr. Maxwell will discuss his research\, share stories about collecting and his interactions with other researchers over the years… and\, of course\, share highlights of his unique collection with us. A Q&A will follow.

SUMMARY:Oshawa Historical Society Presents: A Visit to Toronto’s First Post Office in 1834
DESCRIPTION:Join Zoé Delguste-Cincotta\, Curator of Toronto’s First Post Office\, for a virtual tour of of the Post Office in 1834 \nIt is difficult for our 21st century selves to contemplate a time when handwriting was the only means of sending a thought any distance. When Toronto incorporated as a City in 1834\, it was already a bustling capital of just over 9000 inhabitants\, most of whom were recent immigrants\, having left family and friends across borders and oceans. But the new city was remote\, and isolated. And if these residents wanted to communicate farther than shouting distance\, there was only one way – by putting it in writing. \nThis illustrated presentation will highlight the history of the postal service in the Town of York and the building and operation of the first Post Office in the city of Toronto.
