Some of the listings below seem to iindicate that Sherbrooke is in Compton County, if I am reading it correctly. Ernie..............Ontario...............Canada Dear ERNIE in Ontario, I did some checking today and discovered in the book The History of Compton County that there were many changes going on around the 1840s to 1870s regarding land boundaries and in 1851 the town of Sherbrooke (including Ascot and Orford) was part of Compton County for all purposes except electoral. This division stood until 1871 when the County of Sherbrooke was once again established. We learn something new every day. Ref: Page 31. Channell, L. S.

Page 77 & 78 WATERVILLE, QUEBEC The village of Waterville is situared on the Grand Trunk Railway, half way between Coaticook and Sherbrooke. The surrounding scenery is very picturesque and the country fertile. The population has doubled in the past four years, and the village is very prosperous. It is amply supplied with water-power, and forms a good site for manufacturers, having convenient shipping facilities and reliable labor supplies. It has a model school, which ranks high among the schools of the Eastern Townships. Here are located the factory and office of MESSRS. GEORGE GALE & SONS, the well known manufacturers of wire spring mattresses. This firm are probably the largest manufacturers of wire mattresses in the world, and their products go to Great Britain, Australia and other foreign countries in large quantities. One-third of their entire product goes to Great Britain, where they have regular agencies. =================

The Canadian Encyclopedia © 2004 Historica Foundation of Canada http://www.canadianencyclopedia.ca/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=A1ARTA0002491 Eastern Townships from TCE Standard The Eastern Townships region is located in the Appalachian hills of south-central Québec, between Montréal and Québec City. The townships extend from GRANBY to Lac MÉGANTIC and from DRUMMONDVILLE to the US border. The first inhabitants were the ABENAKI, who travelled the region for hunting and fishing. The only settlement during the French regime was a trading post at Grandes-Fourches [ SHERBROOKE ]. Shortly after the American Revolution a large number of English LOYALISTS left the US for Canada and settled in the area of Baie Missisquoi on the northeastern extension of Lac CHAMPLAIN. In 1791 the British government granted them land in the form of townships. The first of the 95 townships conceded was Dunham (1796). In 1792, the region (then an electoral county) was called Buckinghamshire. Later it became known as the "Eastern Townships of Lower Canada" (as opposed to the "Western Townships of Upper Canada" ) and "Eastern Townships" by 1806. The name was translated to "Townships de l'Est" towards 1833 and "Cantons de l'Est" in 1858, but the region officially became "Estrie" in 1981; this last name is still debated. Early settlers were American, English and Irish. After 1840 a wave of French colonization swept into the region, and between 1871 and 1881 Francophones became the majority. Anglophones now account for less than 10% of the region's population. Equipped with an excellent road system since the 1820s, the region underwent considerable growth following construction of the GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY between Montréal and Portland, Maine, in 1853. The road and rail networks encouraged the exploitation and development of natural resources such as timber, asbestos, granite, copper and limestone as well as the harvesting of Christmas trees. The Eastern Townships was one of the first mining regions of Canada, with many mines and dating from as early as the middle of the 19th century. Today, most of Canada's commercially important ASBESTOS comes from the Eastern Townships; in fact, mines in THETFORD MINES and ASBESTOS produce a large portion of the world's asbestos. Hydroelectric power generated by the numerous waterfalls of the Rivière SAINT-FRANÇOIS and its tributaries resulted in the establishment of sawmills and flour mills, and since 1855, the development of textile plants, foundries and the pulp and paper industry. The 20th century brought heavy industry to Sherbrooke, and it gradually became the "Queen of the Eastern Townships." The snowmobile industry flourished in Valcourt after its founding by J. Armand BOMBARDIER. University research and the arrival of high technology have resulted in the establishment of a microelectronics industry. Since 1985 it has been the site of the first viticultural industry in Québec, centred in Dunham. The region has 2 universities: Université de Sherbrooke (francophone), and Bishop's University (anglophone) in LENNOXVILLE - testament to the Townships' biculturalism. One of the region's curiosities is its round barns, designed to protect their owners from the devil (according to local legend, "the devil hides in the corners of barns"). The Eastern Townships also contain several large parks, museums, nature interpretation centres and festivals. The MAGOG-Orford area has become a major year-round international tourist centre.

----- Original Message ----- From: "Gordon A. Watts" <[email protected]> To: "Canada Census Campaign" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2004 10:05 AM Subject: Post 1901 - Information Commissioner's Response Greetings All. As I start to write this it is 6:00 AM Pacific Time. I was awakened at 5:30 AM to the sound of my fax line ringing. I was not upset, however, as the incoming fax was the long awaited response from the Information Commissioner to our complaints regarding the refusal of Statistics Canada to return control of the 1911 Census records. It took almost 30 minutes for some 40 pages to be received. The most important of the pages received was a two page letter signed by the Hon. John M. Reid. In that letter the Information Commissioner advises that he "found access to the withheld records is authorized pursuant to paragraph 19(2)(c) of the Access to Information Act by reference to subsection 8(3) of the Privacy Act and section 6 of the Privacy Regulations." Mr. Reid further stated "On June 22 and July 22, 2004, I recommended that SC release the requested schedules. However, on August 24, 2004, The Honourable David Emerson, the Minister of Industry, informed me that he does not intend to follow my recommendation." Mr. Reid sought permission to apply to the Federal Court on my behalf for a review of the refusal by the Minister of Industry to release the records is question. He indicated that there were 90 complaints made by 90 individual complainants and that he intends to bring one application for review before the Federal Court seeking relief for the benefit of all complainants who have provided their constent. Copies of all signed consent forms will be filed with the Court as part of this application. By the time you read this the Information Commissioner's responses to all 90 complainants should be in the mail. I cannot stress strongly enough the importance of signing the consent forms to be received. Please return them to the Information Commissioner as soon as possible -- preferably by return mail. Perhaps as you do this you could drop me a line to advise that you have responded to the Information Commissioner's request. I am extremely pleased by the response received from the Information Commissioner. It was worth waiting for. On the other hand I am disappointed that virtually the first act of the Hon. David Emerson, newly elected Member of Parliament and newly appointed Minister for Industry, was to refuse to follow the recommendations of Mr. Reid. This is one more step closer to realizing our immediate goal of access to the 1911 National Census of Canada, and eventual release of subsequent Censuses. We must, however, continue our efforts by signing petitions and contacting our parliamentary representatives to advise of our concerns in this matter. With your help we will succeed. Happy Hunting.
