Hi Listers! On Saturday, September 25th from 10 am to 4 pm, the Penetanguishene Centennial Museum & Archives is holding its annual Settlers' Day event. See the website www.pencenmuseum.com for more details. Consider this an invitation to all family historians with roots in Penetanguishene to come and show us what you've got! As we have done each year, we will have tables set up in the Great Hall for anyone who wishes to display their families' histories, documents, photos, memorabilia or treasures. This is an opportunity to network and possibly meet a new cousin or two or three. It need not be an elaborate display but be prepared to talk about your family - likely your favourite topic anyway! Set up of displays is prior to 10 and take down after 4. Lunch on the grounds with your own picnic or buy a hot dog or hamburger from the Friends of the Museum who will have their barbecues set up. If you are so inclined, purchase a $50 dinner ticket (part donation for which a tax receipt is issued) and join us at the Inn at Bay Moorings in the evening for a presentation on the life of the 2010 honouree - Rev. Father Theophilus Francois Laboureau - the 'builder' of our community and the landmark that sits on the hill, St. Ann's Church. Speaking of whom...........I would like to hear from anyone whose ancestor may have had a personal reminiscence or connection to Fr. Laboureau. I would very much like to see any photos of this man as they seem to have been rather scarce. And if you are related to the family of James Celestin Martin, please contact me off-list. Looking forward to seeing you, Pam Tessier Genealogy & History Research Centre
