Interested in History?

 

Join us on Sat Sept 25th from 1- 4 p.m. at the old, old cemetery on Hwy 588 with your work gloves on. We need three of four people including someone with a chain saw & brush cutters. A truck or 2 to haul away debris would be great!

 

The plan is to clear the cemetery of deadfall and brush in order to evaluate what needs to be done to ensure the survival of remaining structures.

 

After-work snack and coffee provided.

 

The long-term goal, scheduled for the 100th Anniversary in 2020:  a plaque or monument of some kind, that would list the names of the approximately forty people buried there. Time should not forget them!

 

And/or, you could join a discussion group at the Community Centre Oct 20th at 7:30 p.m. (after the book swap) to learn how to trace families through history (perhaps someone from the old cemetery or your own ancestors).  It is very easy to find information, for free, about Canadians prior to 1912 (1916 in the western provinces)! 

 

Donation requested to cover operating costs at the Community Centre.

We will talk about

·         Free Canadian resources

·         Free local resources

·         Pitfalls to watch for in newspapers, family history, cemeteries (especially when it comes to dates)

·         How to get started

·         How to organize your research

·         & more, depending on where our discussion takes us.

You should bring:

·         Whatever piece of history that might get you started on your quest for ancestors or history.

o    A picture

o   A letter

o   An old Bible

o   A certificate

o   Whatever .....

If you’re interested, please let us know (either phone 476-0927 or email the community centre gilliescommunitycentre@gmail.com).

Canada Day Celebrations:

"The event was well planned and attended.  The fireworks display was very impressive and had the community talking about it for days after.  It has been stated by some that the fireworks display was better than the City of Thunder Bay's - quite an accomplishment!  It was a wonderful way to spend Canada Day with friends, family and community members."

 "he thought the Canada Day celebrations had gone very well, impressively well. ........congratulations and ...... observation that the township turnout was impressive...."
