Reproduction Location: Microfilm at County Land Registry, Pembroke

Creator: Renfrew County Land Registry

Physical Description: 162 abstract indexes; approx. 250,000 individual instruments; 56 maps

Physical Condition: The indexes and instruments are in various stages of deterioration. Instruments are folded within drawers. Many are stapled and torn. The maps have been removed from their wooden frames, where applicable, and have been cleaned using Absorene, a paper and book cleaner.

Custodial History: The Renfrew County Land Records collection was transferred from the Renfrew County Land Registry in Pembroke to the AMBA in the fall of 2000. The Land Registry documents reflect the development of Renfrew County from 1858 to approximately 1975. In February 2010, 56 maps were transferred to the AMBA which were no longer in use at the Pembroke Land Registry Office. Maps and plans for the southern portion of Renfrew County are described at the item level within this fonds.

Scope and Content: RESEARCH GUIDE: Using the Renfrew County Land Records What can you learn from the land records here? If you own or are researching a property in Renfrew County, the land records here at the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives can help you find out its history from the very first owner until about 1970, including owners, value at different times and more. In many cases, we have original deeds and other documents related to the property. If you are researching your ancestors, the land records will only help if (a) they owned property and (b) you know where that property was. In a perfect world, you would know the township, concession or range and lot number if the property were rural or the town/village, plan number and lot number for a property in a built-up area. Street or postal addresses do not identify properties in the land records, but they can often point a researcher to the right concession or plan number. If you only know the township or town, you are unlikely to find the land records helpful. There is a partial exception – if the property is in Arnprior or McNab Township, we might have it indexed by name for some dates. How the countryside was divided up and ownership recorded. The basics of land holding in Ontario were established shortly after the British conquest of Canada in 1760. All land was presumed to be Indian Land until acquired by the Crown. By law, only the Crown could ‘purchase’ Indian Land, though such purchases were often little more than outright theft. Once acquired by the Crown, the land had to be surveyed before it could be transferred – by grant or sale – to private ownership. In this province, surveys generally preceded settlement. Rural property: The basic unit of territorial division was, and is, the township . London’s instructions to Governor Haldimand in July, 1783 directed him to have land surveyed to accommodate refugees from the American War of Independence. The instructions suggested that townships fronting on navigable rivers have 2 – 4 leagues of frontage and be 3 – 5 leagues deep, otherwise they should be “run square or in such shape and in such quantities as shall be convenient and practicable.” Later governors received similar directions. Government-appointed surveyors divided the township into lots, the basic units of land ownership and registration. In the earliest townships the standard lot was 200 acres ; this went down gradually over time and many Renfrew county townships were surveyed with 100-acre lots. Every township contains several hundred lots, so they have to be organised for record-keeping purposes. The standard method is to arrange the lots in rows, roughly a mile wide, called concessions, with road allowances dividing concessions. Those allowances, when opened as roads, are often called “lines” or “concession roads”. In some counties like Lanark, concession roads are confusingly called concessions on maps and road signs. They are not; they are roads and the land between them is the concession. Township roads other than concession roads are normally called “side roads”. The concessions run perpendicular to one of the township boundaries, called the base line. In some counties, all the township baselines are parallel to each other, so the concessions all run the same way. That is not true of Renfrew; for historical reasons the easternmost townships have baselines that run east-west(ish), while those to the west have north-south(ish) baselines. Concessions are normally numbered. On survey maps concession numbers are normally printed in roman numerals, so as to avoid confusion with lot numbers. Concessions can be assigned (capital) letters instead of numbers, often following the numbered concessions . Many Renfrew County townships have all of their lots laid out in concessions. Others also include ranges of lots. Unlike arrow-straight concessions, ranges are rows that curve to follow natural features like shorelines or man-made ones such as colonisation roads. Renfrew county examples include the ranges along the Bonnechere River in Bromley and Admaston townships and ranges in several townships of road lots on the Ottawa-Opeongo road. Ranges have names or letters, rather than numbers. Whether it is part of a concession or of a range, each lot or part lot in a township has a unique two-part identifier: its group (concession number or range name) and number within the group. For part lots the number will have an additional qualifier, e.g. ‘NW ¼ of lot x, concession Y’. If the property of interest to you is rural, the two-part identifier with any qualifiers is all you will need to find its records. Feel free to skip the next section. If it is in a built-up area, read on. Town, village and suburban property: Land records based on 100-200 acre lots are not much use when town properties are typically 50 by 100 feet or even smaller. Town plots, made up of relatively tiny lots, were sometimes laid out in the original surveys of Ontario townships but much more commonly towns and villages were created out of existing township lots. For instance, the Act that created the Village of Arnprior in 1862 defined the village as comprising “The North-east half of Lots Numbers two, three, four and five in the thirteenth Concession; Lots Numbers two, three, four and five in the fourteenth Concession: and Lots Numbers three and four in the fifteenth Concession of the said Township of McNab in the County of Renfrew.” Six lots and four half-lots for a whole town site. By the time the Act was passed, some of those original McNab lots had already been divided up for sale by their owners. The process was as follows. A surveyor is engaged to develop a plan of subdivision of one or more existing lots, creating smaller numbered lots separated by street allowances. When the plan is approved by the municipality and accepted by the Land Registry, it is given a plan number and a new land record series is established for the lots created by the plan. To repeat the warning given earlier, lot numbers are not related to street addresses. The process of sub-division can be repeated. That is, a lot created by Plan 7 may later be further divided by Plan 22 and so on. At every stage, new numbered lots are created, together with a new series of records. Over time, a given spot on the ground may have several different lot and plan numbers and be recorded in several abstract indexes. Urban lots can also be split more simply into, for instance E and W half-lots. This does not create a new record series, just a ‘qualified’ record as it does for country lots. The same two-part identifier system applies to urban properties as to rural. The only difference is that the plan number replaces the concession number or range name. Land records: The records here in the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives are physical, not digital. They are in two parts:; Filing cabinets filled with thousands of original documents such as deeds, called instruments. These are organised by township or town and by the serial number assigned when they were filed, starting with 1 and continuing as high as needed.; Huge register books called abstract indexes , recording for each lot every transaction from the original Crown sale or grant onward, including the serial numbers of instruments. Each lot has its own page, or pages if there are many transactions. Even if parts of a lot are sold, transactions for all parts will continue to be recorded on the same page. Severing a lot into parts does not create new lots; only a Plan can do that. For townships, the books are arranged by concession and lot number, Book One starting with Concession One, Lot 1. Typically, alphabetical concessions and ranges follow the numbered concessions. Other lands, e.g. road allowances and islands, often come last. For towns the books run from Lot 1 on the lowest-numbered plan to the highest-numbered lot on the highest-numbered plan. How many books will depend on the amount of sub-division. We have abstract indexes for all 37 of the historic townships of Renfrew County. Some townships are covered in a single book; others use as many as four. We also have abstract indexes for 36 hamlets, villages, towns and our one city, Pembroke. While most of these places are still on the map, many have been absorbed by neighbours or faded from memory. All abstract indexes and instruments are irreplaceable historic artefacts. Please wear the gloves provided and handle the documents carefully. How to find a property in the records To use the land records, you will need to visit the archives; there is no online access. Once you are here: For properties anywhere in Renfrew County the ease of finding records depends on how much information you have. 1. If you know the two-part identifier for a lot of interest, a volunteer will bring you the appropriate abstract index and help you find the page. 2. If you know the first part of the identifier – the concession, range or plan number – plus another item of information like a name, we can still fetch the correct abstract index for you to search. There are rarely more than forty or so lots in a concession or range, so a search is relatively quick. 3. If you don’t know the concession, range or plan but you can find the property on a map, we have reference maps of all townships that show the concessions, ranges and lots. For the Town of Arnprior, the wall map in our reading room shows the boundaries of the plans. 4. If all you have is the street address of a town property elsewhere in Renfrew County, you will have to rely on the cross-references our volunteers have compiled over the years and which are included in the township/village notes in the Finding Aid to Renfrew County Land Books to identify the correct plan. These finding aids are more or less complete, depending on the locality. The Town of Renfrew remains a significant challenge, as does Pembroke. 5. If all you have is a name, for Arnprior and McNab Township only, we have partial indexes of property owners’ names that might be of help. The McNab index covers the whole township, but shows only the first owner of the lot and the owner in 1861. An update to include all owners to 1975 is under way; it can be accessed on request. Indexes for Mansfield and Sand Point show only the second owners of the lots. The Arnprior index, on the other hand, includes all owners from 1825 to 1970 within the area west of the Madawaska River and north of William Street. Should your person turn up, you will get the book and page numbers for all the lots he or she owned. Once on the desired page you can read, transcribe or photograph the information. Because of their size, there is no way to photocopy a page of an abstract index. Blank forms for transcribing from abstract index pages are available on request. How to read an abstract index page A page in an abstract index is a list, in chronological order , of every transaction or event affecting the ownership of one particular lot, in whole or in part, beginning with the Patent by which the Crown transferred it to private ownership or the Plan by which it was created. Each transaction is recorded on a separate line and if the page is filled the list continues on an additional page. If the continuation page is not physically adjacent, a note will direct the user to the correct page number. All abstract index pages have their records divided into the same fields or columns, with more or less the same headings, but they do not always put the columns in the same order. It seems that different suppliers of index books chose their own order of column headings. Often the right-most column on the page has no heading and is used for general remarks. If the original lot has been divided, transactions involving all the part-lots will be intermixed on the same page unless they are included in a plan. The entry in the column Quantity of Land will specify which part(s) of the lot are included in the transaction, though it may be necessary to read the instrument for full particulars. If no quantity is shown, the whole lot is intended. Once a plan sub-divides some or all of the lot, all further transactions for the lands included will be in the new records series created for that plan. Because the registry was exclusively concerned with ownership, the entries on an abstract index page will be transactions that change the ownership (e.g. will, bargain & sale) or make it subject to conditions (e.g. mortgage). Only land ownership is recorded, not buildings on the land. Every record begins with the serial Number of Instrument of the supporting document, which Archives volunteers can use to retrieve the instrument itself if we have it. Patents do not have numbers. Many instrument numbers include a letter. This can be ignored; it refers to a book in which the instruments were once stored and is not used any more. Once it has been retrieved, you can read and transcribe the instrument. You can also have it photocopied or scanned by a volunteer, for a small fee. Bring a USB stick to save scans, or we can email them to you at no additional cost. You are not permitted to photograph instruments. The next column gives the type of Instrument, usually in an abbreviated form. The type of instrument often determines whether or not it will be included in our collection. Patents were never stored in the registry offices. All pre-Confederation instruments and all Wills were retained by the Province when other records were transferred to the Archives. Mortgage documents were normally removed from the registry when the mortgage was discharged. If a line is drawn through a record, e. g. a discharged mortgage, the instrument was removed at that time. Many instruments simply are missing, for reasons we do not know.

Arrangement: The index books are arranged alphabetically by municipality. Instruments are held in filing cabinets, arranged alphabetically by municipality and then by instrument number. The maps are also arranged alphabetically by municipality.

Notes: Loose, miscellaneous documents found in various indexes have been placed with Renfrew County Maps in Map Cabinet 3 Drawer 6.

History / Biography: The following indexes were compiled by several volunteers under the supervision of Arnold McIntyre at the Arnprior & District Archives using Renfrew County Abstract Indexes for the Township of McNab, Sand Point and Mansfield. This project was completed over a two year period; between 2004 & 2006. As described in Peter Hessel’s book McNab - The Township, the survey for McNab township was completed in 1824 by John McNaughton, who was an apprentice of Reuben Sherwood. Many of the original settlers signed articles of agreement with the Laird in Scotland in 1825. Another group from Scotland arrived in 1830. They traveled at their own expense and settled the rear of the Township near White Lake. Researchers should refer to McNab – The Township for a detailed account of the unusual conditions the settlers faced for the first twenty years that they lived in the Township.

Scope and Content: This index is for the Township of McNab. Indices for Sand Point and Mansfield are in separate descriptons.; Occasionally, the clerk of the Land Records Office misspelled the land owner’s name; so researchers must be vigilant in searching the listing for all variable forms of names. For instance the name McLachlan may be spelled in seven different ways: McLachlan, McLochlan, McLauchlan, McLauchlin, McLaughlan and McLaughlin. Other names with variant spelling include Barry and Barrie; Heddrick and Headrick; Russet, Rosette and Rosset; McNiven, and McNeven; Havy, Hevy, Heavy and Havey; Oram, Orem and Orum; Ledgerwood and Legerwood.; Researchers interested in family history will be able to find where and when their ancestors held land in McNab Township. Moving from these lists, they can then refer to the copy books and view the original instruments which are held in the archives. Documents relating to land transactions prior to 1867 are held in the Archives of Ontario, but copies may be viewed at the Renfrew County Land Records Office (LRO) in Pembroke, Ontario.; The following index is sorted by lot and concession. An index sorted by title holders is available in Section 2 of the binder (located in Reading Room).; Concession A, B, C, D refer to Concession 12, 13, 14 & 15 respectively.; Information in the first four rows of the listing was taken from three separate McNab Township copy books held at the archives. They record original patent holder, concession, lot, and date the land was granted from the Crown.; The property owner in 1861 is listed in the fourth row. These 1861 names were printed in an early copy of the Arnprior Chronicle newspaper and are included here for comparison purposes only. In some cases, the original land owner was the same person listed as owning the land in 1861, but land was often granted to individuals who had no interest in settling on the land. For instance, the land surveyor Reuben Sherwood was granted the patent for 25 lots in the Township but did not live on any of them. In other cases, settlers occupied land for many years before the patent was granted. For instance the patent for the South West ½ of lot 1, Concession 3 wasn’t granted until 1973!; Name Concession Lot Date of Grant Owner in 1861; LINDSAY, William 1 1 Feb. 18, 1882; LINDSAY, William 1 2 Feb. 18, 1882; CAMPBELL, John 1 3 (5 acres) Dec. 12, 1872; 1 4 See Bylaw 603 1965; CAMPBELL, John R. 1 E pt. 5 Mar. 27, 1939; 1 6 See Bylaw 603 1965; 1 E ½ 7 See Bylaw 603 1965; STEWART, John 1 W ½ 7 Jan. 23, 1880; 1 8 See Bylaw 603 1965; CRANE, Edwin 1 NE ½ 9 Aug. 27, 1863; 1 SW ½ 9 See Bylaw 603 1965; McLAUCHLAN, Donald 1 W ½ 10 Apr. 24, 1882; DORAN, John 1 E ½ 10 Aug. 12, 1884; DORAN, John 1 E ½ 11 Apr. 9, 1883; McLOCHLAN, Thomas A. 1 W ½, 11 Apr. 15, 1931; McLAUCHLAN, Donald 1 E pt. 12 (50 acres) Nov. 17, 1846; McLACHLAN, Thos.

Notes: Other sources of information related to land ownership in McNab are assessment and collector’s rolls (held at the Arnprior and District Archives) and the general register of wills (held at the LRO). Various branches of the South Renfrew Women’s Institute have compiled the history of farms in McNab Township for their Tweedsmuir History books. The Arnprior & District Archives holds these valuable records along with copies of private individual’s research and recollections about the history and development of the Township.

History / Biography: The following index was compiled by several volunteers under the supervision of Arnold McIntyre at the Arnprior & District Archives using Renfrew County Abstract Indexes for Mansfield. This project was completed over a two year period; between 2004 & 2006.

Scope and Content: The following is an index of land owners in the area west of Arnprior known as Mansfield. This section dates from 1869 when a gentleman named James Penderson Mansfield from the City of Detroit purchased Lot 6 & 7 in Concession C of the Township of McNab from Isabella McNab (relict of the late Duncan McNab).; Indices for Sand Point and McNab Township are in separate descriptons.; Occasionally, the clerk of the Land Records Office misspelled the land owner’s name; so researchers must be vigilant in searching the listing for all variable forms of names. For instance the name McLachlan may be spelled in seven different ways: McLachlan, McLochlan, McLauchlan, McLauchlin, McLaughlan and McLaughlin. Other names with variant spelling include Barry and Barrie; Heddrick and Headrick; Russet, Rosette and Rosset; McNiven, and McNeven; Havy, Hevy, Heavy and Havey; Oram, Orem and Orum; Ledgerwood and Legerwood.; Researchers interested in family history will be able to find where and when their ancestors held land.

History / Biography: The following index was compiled by several volunteers under the supervision of Arnold McIntyre at the Arnprior & District Archives using Renfrew County Abstract Indexes for Sand Point. This project was completed over a two year period; between 2004 & 2006.

Scope and Content: The following is a list of the second and third title holders of Sand Point property after Alexander McDonell who received title to all the land in 1867. Please note that some data such as Lot No. or street names is missing in the abstract books, so this data does not appear in the index. Also, the Canada Permanent Loan & Savings Company (Canada P. L. & S. Co.) appears several times in the index for Sand Point. It is also known as the Canada Permanent Building and Savings Society. A Plan of Sand Point dated 1867 is available for viewing at the Arnprior & District Archives.; Indices for Mansfield and McNab Township are in separate descriptons.; Occasionally, the clerk of the Land Records Office misspelled the land owner’s name; so researchers must be vigilant in searching the listing for all variable forms of names. For instance the name McLachlan may be spelled in seven different ways: McLachlan, McLochlan, McLauchlan, McLauchlin, McLaughlan and McLaughlin. Other names with variant spelling include Barry and Barrie; Heddrick and Headrick; Russet, Rosette and Rosset; McNiven, and McNeven; Havy, Hevy, Heavy and Havey; Oram, Orem and Orum; Ledgerwood and Legerwood.; Researchers interested in family history will be able to find where and when their ancestors held land. Moving from these lists, they can then refer to the copy books and view the original instruments which are held in the archives. Documents relating to land transactions prior to 1867 are held in the Archives of Ontario, but copies may be viewed at the Renfrew County Land Records Office (LRO) in Pembroke, Ontario.; Plan 2nd Owner Date Street Lot 3rd Owner Date; 21 John B.

History / Biography: The Township of McNab, Renfrew County, Ontario, was incorporated effective January 1, 1850 under the terms of the Baldwin Act, Chapter 81, Canada Statutes, 1849. This act provided for the creation of municipal governments at the town, village and township levels and identified those which would automatically be granted municipal status when the act came into effect, January 1, 1850. The township of McNab was surveyed and named McNab in 1824; the area covered approx. 64,000 acres. The first group of settlers arrived from Scotland to the township in 1825. Between 1840 and 1844, cultivated acreage in the township rose by 65%. Before the first McNab township hall was erected, the town council met in the house of Daniel McIntyre (an early Stewartville resident). Later, the council met in Stewartville’s township hall. Allan Stewart donated land for the township hall in 1850. Under the provisions of Bill 26, the Savings and Restructuring act, 1996, McNab Township was amalgamated with Braeside village to form the new Township of McNab/Braeside effective January 1, 1998. The Village of Braeside was part of the Township of McNab until its incorporation in 1921.

History / Biography: Goshen Women’s Institute, a branch in Renfrew South District, was organized on September 17, 1914 by Mrs. Stringer of Burnstown, and Miss McLachlin of White Lake. Meetings took place in members homes until the branch purchased a small log building from the Sons of Temperance to use as their meeting hall in 1925. Goshen W.I. supported the community through its volunteer work and donations to local clubs and organizations including the Renfrew Victoria Hospital.

History / Biography: The Arnprior Women’s Institute is a branch within Renfrew South District. Their first meeting was in the Council Chambers on January 8, 1932; 12 members were present and paid a fee of 25 cents. Over the years Arnprior Women's Institute has supported such causes as St. John Ambulance, Canadian National Institute for the Blind, Victorian Order of Nurses, Arnprior Fair, Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital, Arnprior’s Grove, refugees, and donations to fire victims. The branch amalgamated in April 2002 with Stewartville to become the Arnprior-Stewartville Branch. That branch then disbanded in 2008, with remaining members joining the White Lake Branch.

Collection/Fonds: Peter Hessel collection

Description Level: File

Scope and Content: File contains information pertaining to the land in McNab Township that was granted by the Crown to Archibald Laird of McNab personally. All the material consists of photocopies of documents in the National Archives under No. R.G. 1, E3, Volume 53.; 1. Copy of letter by R.B. (The Hon. Robert Baldwin) Sullivan to Archibald McNab, dated Toronto, Sep. 27, 1839. The Executive Council cannot find justifiable vouchers, etc. for McNab’s claim. A payment of £4000 is recommended in lieu of all rights. 1. McNab is to assign his rights to the Crown, 2. £4000 to be paid to McNab, 3. McNab to sell his own land to the settlers at market value (without considering any improvements made), 4. the payment of £4000 is to come from said sale of lands; 5. Money already paid to McNab to the settlers is to be deducted.; 2. Copy of letter over McNab’s signature to Executive Council, dated Toronto, July 30, 1839. Misunderstanding between him and the Council respecting the terms: McNab surrendering his claim to a grant of 5000 acres of land under certain conditions. McNab claims that Council is misinformed about the area of land settled in the township and that not 6500 acres but nearly 10,000 acres are now settled by a total of 165 settlers (families). He says that he has “located” about 15,000 acres in total. He wants payment of the full amount of his “admitted outlays” with interest.; 3. Copy of short letter signed J.B. Harrison (Government House) to ?, dated July 24, 1839. Last paragraph of a letter to McNab “had better be omitted”.; 4. Copy of letter over McNab’s signature dated July 25, 1839 (to Council?), entitled” Remarks by The McNab upon the Report of the Executive Council in the settlement of the Township of McNab, of date 23rd July 1839”. McNab was in Toronto to address the Council in the matter of his claim.; 5. Copy of the Report of July 23, 1839 referred to above.; 6. Copy of letter by the Executive Council to McNab, dated July 27, 1839, signed Sullivan.; 7. Copy of note by McNab (all in his own hand) to R.A. Tucker, dated Toronto, July 4, 1839.; 8. Copy of letter by Hagerman to Macauley (secretary of Lieutenant Governor), dated Toronto, July 15, 1839. Hagerman cautions about McNab’s power to evict 100 or more families. This might cause unrest among the new Loyal Scotch in the eastern part of the country — “most injurious”. “The (original) agreement made with McNab was most injudicious”. “The faith of the Crown ... must be maintained”. Recommended: grant McNab compensation and regain control of the township.; 9. Copy of letter by McNab to Macauley, dated Toronto, Feb. 16, 1838, after Council’s and Lt. Gov.’s decision was made. Re monetary compensation by the government for expenses on behalf of the settlers. McNab values land (5000 acres) and buildings at £5000, expenses at £4000 (total: £9000).; 10. Copy of letter by Archdeacon John Strachan to Robert Baldwin Sullivan, dated Toronto, Feb. 6, 1839 re McNab, recommending that McNab be given the right to do more or less as he pleases.; 11. Copy of letter by Macauley (Lt. Gov.’s secretary) to Attorney General Hagerman asking for an opinion on Council’s recommendations re McNab.; 12. Copy of letter (recommendations) by Attorney General C.W.A. Hagerman re McNab’s patent, etc. Dated Toronto, February 14, 1839. The Lt. Gov. to make the decision. McNab’s right to expel 50 or 100 families is questionable. Caution is urged. Recommends to send a confidential agent to the township to make a report re the causes of differences between McNab and the settlers. “Was it ever the Crown’s intention to place so much power in the hands of McNab?” In the meantime, the eviction of 12 settlers was approved.; 13. Att. Gen’s office, dated Feb. 14, 1939, very similar to 12.; 14. Copy of Recommendations by Archdeacon John Strachan, dated Feb. 5, 1835. “It is respectfully recommended that the services rendered by ... McNab in settling the township, ... with the exception of the Crown and Clergy reserves ...”; 15. Copy of letter by Sullivan to Lt. Governor Sir George Arthur, dated Toronto, Feb. 8, 1839, including Executive Council minutes and recommendations re McNab - to grant patent in trust, referring to “trust deed for the lands under his superintendence”. Council regrets “exceeding;y” the original “stipulation entered into by the Government with the McNab, which made the grants to the locatees subject to the performance of agreements between himself and the settlers”. “McNab’s claim to 5000 acres of land “seems to have been voluntarily given up in consideration of ... certain prime timber in the township”. Council “did not notice this circumstance when the petition for a location upon lots occupied by the settlers was last before them — this accounts for locations of settlers upon lands settled by the McNab — these lands must therefore be considered, as seems to have been the design of the parties when the locations were made, to be precisely under the same circumstances as other lands”. Recommended: that a patent be issued to the Laird in trust so that he can convey lots to the settlers subject to remuneration for the Laird’s expenses in settling them.; 16. Copy of letter over McNab’s signature to the Lieutenant Governor, dated Toronto, Feb. 5, 1839. “Upon the 5th of November 1823 he [i.e. the McNab] had the honour of obtaining the Grant of settling a township of land in the Province upon certain terms and conditions (a copy of which is herewith produced), a certain portion of which (8000) was specifically reserved for himself.”; “That upon the 7th day of April 1827, he received the commands of Government to fulfill and report upon all the conditions in the said Grant (which order and original copy of his answer is herewith also produced), when he then selected the Lots as reserved for himself — a copy of the schedule of which is in the hands of the Deputy Surveyor General. It has been already often stated that there was but a small portion of the Township fit for settling (not much above 7000 acres), the object of his settlement would therefore have been defeated wholly, had he reserved his own lands from settlement, he therefore gave the choice of his own lands to the settlers upon the same terms that he settled the rest upon.; “That he has strictly fulfilled all the conditions of his arrangement with Government in every respect, and having laid out considerable sums of money in improving his property — in erecting two separate establishments, with saw & grist mills, for the benefit of the Township and that portion of the County, he humbly requests that Your Excellency in Council may be pleaded to order a Patent Deed to issue to him of his own said lands according to the list which (is with the Deputy Surveyor General) . . .”; 16. Copy of letter from Secretary Mudge to the Presiding (Executive) Counsellor, dated July 20, 1830.; 17. Copies of several other documents (many pages) pertaining to the same matter (1830s and 1840s).; 18. Handwritten transcript (by Kirstin Jeffrey, Arnprior, 1987) of a document issued on December 5, 1862 by the Registry Office of Renfrew County, pertaining to the conveyance of land (Lot 5, Concession C) in the Township of McNab first by the Crown to Archibald McNab (Feb. 28, 1828), then by Indenture of Bargain and Sale from James Middleton and Alfred Middleton to Daniel McLachlin, on January 28, 1852, then by Indenture of Mortgage from Daniel McLachlin to Alexander Simpson and (another property) to Nathaniel Burwash (in 1855). Also mentioned: dower rights of McNab’s widow (Margaret McNab) claimed in 1861/62. See also below.; 19. Brown envelope containing copies of newspaper clippings of articles written by Harry Walker regarding “dower rights” claimed by McNab’s widow. Also containing photocopy of a handwritten copy of an “Indenture between Margaret McNab and Daniel McLachlin re dower’s rights claimed, dated Nov. 17th, 1862. This handwritten note was copied in 1987 when it was found by Peter Hessel and Kirstin Jeffrey “upstairs in the Arnprior Museum’s ‘old kitchen’, next to a filing cabinet (in clear plastic files) with reference number recorded (by PH) as 70.32.18.” The “original” handwritten copy is probably contained in the “Museum Collection”.; 20. Photocopies of three pages (96, 98, 776) of unknown origin apparently in Archibald McNab’s handwriting. The first two pages are entitled “Rental of the Township of McNab 1839”. They contain the names of settlers with lot and concession numbers and the amount of “rent” due (in bushels of grain). Page 97 as well as subsequent pages are missing. The names of 50 settlers on page 778 may be signatures, but more likely entries by the same person (the Laird himself?). These three pages were donated by Arnold McIntyre of Arnprior in August 2000.

History / Biography: The White Lake Community Cemetery was originally established as a Presbyterian Cemetery (later United Church) but as its name indicates it is now a Community Cemetery for all denominations. It is located in the Township of McNab/Braeside at Concession 3, Lot 10. According to the records, the first burial was of Elizabeth Hill (1791-1823) which would date the cemetery at 190 years as of 2013. The White Lake Cemetery held the 1st decoration service in 1921 with Reverend McNaught presiding. Burials before 1800 were: Walter Stirling 1790-1869 J. A. Robertson 1792-1874 John Cunningham 1793-1870 Colin Campbell 1794-1881 Isabella Douglas Campbell 1794-1859 Originally, the lots were very large (measuring 10 feet by 20 feet) to accomodate large families. The plots were reduced in size in later years. The cemetery is divided into 16 Sections with Section 11, 12 and part of 10 reserved for parking on Decoration Day. The White Lake Cemetery Vault was dedicated to the memory of John McRae and his wife Jane Goth by his family in 1957. In 2000, an additional 300' x 290' was purchased from Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Fraser of White Lake which brings the total size of the cemetery to 9 acres. This land is being slowly improved, including the removal of trees, stumps and rocks, in preparation for use in upcoming years. As of 2013, the cemetery committee has noticed an increase in cremations and increased strain on the resources of the volunteers who endevour to keep up with the maintenance of the cemetery grounds. For many years, Lorne Deacon of White Lake Village was caretaker of the cemetery. In 1995, Olga and Cecil Lewis transcribed the cemetery stones and published an index to the White Lake Cemetery. An Amalgamated Index was produced by Philip Durrett in 2000 as a project of the Arnprior McNab/Braeside Archives.

History / Biography: In 2016 and 2017 the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives undertook a special project to explore the connection between what McNab settlers produced in the early days in Township and what local producers are making today. Through oral history interviews the AMBA delved into themes of innovation, continuity and the return of the farm to table movement that is changing how people think about living off the land as Canada celebrates its 150th anniversary. The goal was to interview and document several McNab/Braeside families who are commercially producing various products such as maple syrup, honey, highland cattle, alpaca wool products, and vegetables from large to very small scale producers. Several families submitted family photos which the archives now holds as well as the oral history interviews. An on-line exhibit was created as part of this project which features selected photographs and audio clips from this collection.

Scope and Content: This fonds consists of oral history records created by the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives (AMBA) for its 150 project funded by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport through its Community Celebrations program. Oral history interviews were conducted by Laurie Dougherty and Dianne Brearley of the following participants:; Doug McLaren, Shannon Cassidy-Rouleau, Luke Sheldrick, William Murray, Diane Murray, Peter Murray, Leanne Prins, Jim McGregor, Jane McGregor, Kevin Rosein, Jack Cameron, Gail Cameron and Micheal Hoffman.; Full transcripts of the interviews are available at the AMBA.

Notes: See Exhibits page at www.adarchives.org; Photographs and other material collected from some participants are described as seperate fonds.
