2008 Settlers' Day - Drummond Island Families

PamTessier99 — 23 Jan 2008 7:22:59 GMT

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is now 2008 and we are well into the year of the Drummond Islanders, as the Town of Penetanguishene will shortly proclaim. Two years ago, our Settlers’ Day committee determined that the Drummond Islanders families would be our selection for 2008. Choosing a group and not just one family was a departure from our usual procedure but in the 180 years since their arrival, they have all made a significant contribution to the economic, social or cultural development of our town.
Our planning committee of volunteers has come up with ideas for a truly wonderful September weekend and we hope you will join us and all the descendants of these families in honouring this remarkable group of people.

A list of events and a registration form can be found on our website: www.pencenmuseum.com

Go to Events and Exhibits, click on the icon and when the new window appears, scroll down to the bottom paragraph “Settlers’ Days 1008”. Use the blue slider (what do they call those things?) to see the link to the flyer and the forms. The flyer has all the latest information regarding times and prices.

Now that you have read the event sheet, there are a few important items I should mention…………….

You do not have to register to purchase tickets to the Meet ‘n Greet or the fundraising dinner. You can obtain tickets by calling the office (705) 549-2150.
We are thrilled to have obtained John Bentley Mays as our guest speaker. His award winning book “Arrivals” has an important section on the history of the Drummond Islanders and their contribution to Ontario history.
If you are part of a large group and would like to sit together during the dinner, we can accommodate your request – just let us know.
We ask that children who attend the dinner be at least 12 years of age. If you are coming from out-of-town and must bring your children, we can arrange entertainment for them while you attend the dinner.
Please note: purchase your dinner tickets early. Last year’s dinner was sold out well before September and most of the people on the waiting list could not be seated for dinner.
The Saturday and Sunday events are free with the exception of the breakfast.
The maps will be sold in the gift shop.
Two of the events are being held at the local Legion because we decided to involve other non-profit groups.
Discovery Harbour closes officially for the season on Labour Day weekend but will be
re-opened on Sunday for a guided tour of some of the buildings and the grounds.
We will have local French-Canadian entertainment at the Friday night and Saturday events.
We have limited space in the Great Hall so reserve your family table early. Bring your research, documents and photos. After hours security is excellent.
We welcome the donation of items for the silent auction.

This is your party and your family reunion. Mark your calendars. Tell your cousins and friends.
If you have any other questions, please direct them to genealogy@pencenmuseum.com

FAMILY REUNION

Joanne Bechard — 8 Jun 2003 10:47:42 GMT

Good morning Rachael -
St. Thomas is just south of London Ontario - right between Detroit Michigan and Buffalo New York - three hr drive for us either way -
Where abouts is Smooth Rock Falls - I am taking it is quite a bit north of us -
Both family reunions at the same time -
I am going to be putting classified ads in a few newspapers in the general areas where there are most likely to be Bechards -
My husbands fathers Bechard's are from Paincourt Ont - small French settled community about an hrs drive from here
So I know there are still alot of them down that way -
This is our first attempt for doing this so I hope it is a success -
Could you give me a bit of your BECHARD background and I will send you ours

Take care
Joanne Bechard

CONWAY REUNION 2002

Janice Copeman — 29 Oct 2001 1:55:06 GMT

We are hosting a Conway Reunion, August 2-5th 2002 in St.Gabriel de Valcartier, Quebec. Many of our Irish Ancestors first landed here in the 1820's by way of free passage offered by the British in order to settle the land around Quebec City. Most stayed in the area of Valcartier and Ste.Catherine de Portneuf but some moved on to other parts of Canada and the United States... many of our Ancestors went to work in the logging camps in WI, MN, ME, NH. and others joined the volunteers in a fight in the Civil War, I know of 3 brothers that enlisted, two in NY and one in Georgia. Francis Conway was working in the shipyards in Georgia when the war broke out and he joined the 25th regiment, he was mustered out in 1865 and returned to Quebec to marry Bridget Neville, they then returned to the States, and he was last known living in Rochester NY in 1920. His two brothers James and Richard, have never been located since their inscription, though we do know they were mustered out. You can check out the Reunion Website at:

Anger research weekend

birdsloft — 13 Dec 2003 9:15:16 GMT

HI
This is just to reaffirm that the weekend is
not a family reunion but a research weekend,
where we will get aquainted, do some research
and exchange info. There will be a cost for
a hall rental and bus that will be shared among
the participants but all other expenses are the
responsibility of the individual. I will send
out a list of accommodations available and it
looks like it will take place in late July.
If you have any questions contact me.
