SUMMARY:“The Old Lady Went Along”: Senior migration in the 1800s (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:May 12 | 7:00 PM \nHosted by the Bruce County Genealogical Society \nWe all have 19th century examples in our family histories where parents\, children and grandparents migrated to\, or within\, Canada. What was the impact on the aged folk who left their families\, and their long-time friends and neighbours? Or the physical stresses from the trip itself and the life they found in the wilderness? Or the impact on the older generation who could not\, or would not\, make the trip? This talk will tell the stories of Dianne Brydon’s aging ancestors: those who travelled to Canada from Ireland and Scotland; those who moved again for new opportunities\, having grown old in Canada; and those who were left behind. \nRegister HERE: https://bit.ly/2025-05-12-DianneBrydon-BCGS \nOr by emailing BCGSWebinars@gmail.com \n  \nAbout the Speaker \nDianne Brydon has used skills learned from her Masters in Historical Geography to research her various family histories. She likes nothing more than travelling to archives in the UK\, Canada\, and the US. There\, she sneezed through bundles of dusty documents. The gems she finds help to piece together her ancestors’ colourful stories. \nIn 2017\, Dianne and her father published their family history. The book is titled “The Stalwart Brydons: From Scotland to Galt to Portage La Prairie”. Since then\, she has written articles and given talks to family history/genealogy/local history groups in both Scotland and Canada. She is currently President of the British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa. \n  \n \n
