 Quebec, Lower Canada, New France  Genealogy & History Resources Canadian Resources | Acadian Resources More Quebec Resources BOOK - Pioneers of the Upper Ottawa, and The Humors of the Valley By: Anson A. Gard With a New Introduction and Index by Ryan Taylor (1999) Originally published by Emerson Press, Ottawa 1906 This edition published by Global Heritage Press, Milton 1999 (CD 2009)
The core of the book, and the justification for republishing it after so many years of neglect, are the genealogies which occupy the last third of the volume. All the earliest families are listed, with information about who married whom, where migrant children have gone and whose farms various descendants occupy now. Includes a new introduction and detailed index by noted genealogist, Ryan Taylor. View a listing of all names that appear in the new index (46 pages in .pdf). Family historians who are in search of both hard facts and narrative colour, will find both in this volume. Aside from the facts, this is the charm of Pioneers of the Upper Ottawa. Anson Gard's personality contributes to a narrative which is interesting even for those who have no connection with Aylmer or South Hull. Reviews:
