Please join us for a talk by John Raynor on
“In Search of a Homestead”
A few
of months ago the Huronia chapter of the Ontario Archaeological Society
embarked on a quest to find one of the original homesteads of a Metis/Voyager
families that came from Drummond Island to the Naval and Military
Establishments at the head of Penetanguishene Bay. 

My assumption, when we began this search, was that
most of these families that arrived here, stayed here and settled on the
military reserve lots set aside for the loyalist Metis on the west side of
Penetanguishene Bay opposite to the Establishments.
Tonight, we will explore that assumption and get a
broader view of where these families went.
At
7pm on Wednesday, August 14th in the Thompson Room at the North Simcoe
Recreation Centre, Midland, Ontario.
Open to public - No admission charge.
