History of the I.O.O.F. History of Odd Fellowship in Canada or Jurisdiction of Ontario History of Odd Fellowship in Canada August 10, 1843 Twenty-four years after the birth of the American Order in Baltimore, Maryland, the first Odd Fellow lodge instituted in Canada was Prince of Wales Lodge No. 1 in Montreal, Quebec. It received its charter through the efforts of two American Odd Fellows living in Montreal. They petitioned the Grand Lodge of the United States for a lodge charter. That authority granted the charter after some very serious soul searching and deliberation. Within fifteen months, there were three lodges in the Montreal area who petitioned and received a charter to operate as the Grand Lodge of Canada under the leadership of W.M.B. Hartley as Grand Master. This was the beginning of a brief period of prosperity. The Order spread rapidly to become a fashionable and popular society in Canada. Montreal was the capital of Canada in 1843 and there were amongst the Odd Fellows, many prominent elected members of parliament. The lodges became private social clubs in the eyes of some of the members. These members could retreat from their daily hectic parliamentary lifestyle to enjoy some private male activities. During the formative years, those members engaged in parliamentary activities were strong free thinking nationalists. Having learned of the change approved by the Grand Lodge of the United States, they felt that the Canadian operations should be more independent. Accordingly, they petitioned the Grand Lodge of the United States for sovereign status as a quasi-independent jurisdiction. Subsequently, the Grand Lodge of British North America received this authority with some limitations on their powers. This new Grand Body was the first of its kind and included both the Odd Fellow and Patriarch branches in Canada.

History G eorgetown is situated on the Credit River about 45 Kilometres from Toronto and 60 Kilometres from Hamilton. When George Kennedy, a descendant of United Empire Loyalists, established himself in the area in 1823, it was the abundant water supply for milling purposes that attracted this early entrepreneur. His mill became the beginning of a small settlement. By 1837, however, it was reported that there were still only three families living in the area of his mill known as "Hungry Hollow". It was the enterprising Barber brothers who in 1837 bought a wooden mill and foundry from Kennedy and renamed the small settlement Georgetown (presumably after George Kennedy). The Barber brothers' business flourished and attracted other industrialists such as the Dayfoots who arrived in the early 1840s and became pioneers in the leather and shoe trade in Ontario. It was the papermaking business, however, which the Barber brothers had operated since 1854, which became a real source of prosperity to the Georgetown community for over a century. Just as the excellent sites for water power and ponds in the early 1820s and the opening up of the York (or Toronto) to Guelph Road (now Hwy 7) in 1827 helped to establish this area as a settlement location, it was the building of the Grand Trunk Railroad through Georgetown and the Hamilton and North West Railroad that confirmed Georgetown would be the centre of commerce and industry in the north Halton area. Georgetown grew rapidly during the 1850s and 60s. By 1864 it had a population of 1250 and the citizens decided that it would be in their best interests to "have the management of their own local affairs in the hands of men of their choice". An application was made to Halton County Council for incorporation as a Village. This was granted on December 16, 1864.

Edited by Roger Hall , William Westfall , and Claurel Sefton Macdowell. Toronto: Dundurn Press 1988. Pp. 406, $29.95 cloth, $19.95 paper by Donald Swainson The Ontario Historical Society has made a major contribution to our knowledge of Canadian history. Its 2000 or so members constitute an active community that involves both professional historians and dedicated amateurs. The annual conventions of the society are well attended and are important forums for the discussion of a wide array of topics and issues that relate to the history of Ontario. On a regular basis the society conducts workshops that do much to involve the non-professional in learning about history and in generating and conserving historical material. Unlike more professionally oriented societies, the society works closely with local historical societies and thus makes a major contribution to the popularization of history. Equally important is the work in the heritage field. It co-operates with government and other heritage agencies to define and defend important components of our physical heritage. And, of course, the society has made an important contribution to Canadian historiography. Since 1899 it has published a major Canadian journal; initially titled

In November 1992, the twelve-member Transitional Council was brought together by the Ministry of Health. The Council consisted of six professional members representing various aspects of the Dental Hygiene profession and its academic community; of these, two were the members who had been elected by the profession as the official dental hygiene observers at the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario (RCDSO). The six public members were appointed from across the Province and represented a broad cross-section of the community. Initial tasks carried out in 1993 included: development of core regulations such as entry and re-entry to practice requirements, fee structure, professional misconduct, formation of electoral districts and election procedures; hiring of the Registrar and support staff; choice of premises, including the decision to rent rather than purchase. In February of 1993 the Transitional Council met with the RCDSO to discuss the financial and administrative aspects. In keeping with its framework the RCDSO agreed to provide administrative support to the Transitional Council by: processing payments of approved invoices, expenses and per diems for the Transitional Council members out of the bank account set up for this purpose with an accrediting of the expenditures every 2-3 months;

Return To Main Page FAQ Need Help Volunteer ... Research By Topic Beginning Your Ontario Research Before delving into the world of Ontario genealogy, you should take a bit of time to understand Ontario's history and geography. Both have an impact on genealogy, the resources that are available, and where you'll find them. In our Research By Year and Research By Area sections, you'll find an outline of Ontario's history and geography. Identify the time period When was your ancestor in Ontario (Upper Canada/Canada West)? How long did they stay? Did any major events (births, marriages, deaths) happen while they were here? When? A time period is important because what's available for research differs vastly. A time period also dictates "where" you should look, the area that is now Ontario didn't always have its current name. Until 1763 -> part of New France 1763-1774 -> part of British controlled Indian land 1774-1791 -> part of Province of Quebec (Montreal District) 1791-1841 -> Upper Canada 1841-1867 -> Canada West 1867-present day -> Ontario And be aware that the area that is now Ontario wasn't always as big as it is now. Northern Ontario didn't become part of this province until the 1900's!

Labour and Farmers in Ontario 1919 - 1932 Founding of the CCF Ted Jolliffe and the CCF Breakthrough in Ontario Donald MacDonald and the birth of the NDP Stephen Lewis: Days in Opposition ... The Road to Government and Aftermath Labour and Farmers in Ontario 1919 - 1932 The story of the CCF NDP begins before the founding of the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation in 1932, in the cataclysmic events of the turn of the century, the First World War and its aftermath. We will start in 1919 with the changes in the political landscape that occurred as soldiers returned from four years of futile slaughter, to find that the democratic rights they fought for were still not attained by working people, be they industrial workers or farmers. Women were still in the process of getting the vote - in parts of Canada - and the franchise was still not extended to many aboriginal Canadians, visible minority Canadians, certain religious minorities, or anyone under 21. There was democracy - but only for some. Once in a generation political upheaval takes place in Canada's most populous and stable province, Ontario. The post-war period was one such time. The year 1919 was a time of coming of age for labour politics across Canada as well. In July 1918
