Ottawa at 200 years and on

6 June 2019.

Today has a lot of History.
Today is known as D-Day the beginning of the end to WW11.
There is lots of info on TV and I will not detail any.
Also, in today's Ottawa Citizen there is a full page add [page A5] informing
readers that today is the 100th Anniversary of creating the CN railway.
I grew up with this railway in Capreol, Ont., a terminal of the railway
where the lines from Toronto and Ottawa/Montreal joined on their way
to Vancouver.

Settlers,
There are three  sons of early settlers who left when the were 'grown-up'
They went to Brant Twp/Bruce County and took land just south of
 Owen Sound.
William James Garland, born 1826 in Carleton County settled
Lots 20 and 21 Concession A
George Keys [In 1901 Census  listed as born 1 March 1826,
 Line 9, Fam 31, A4, page 4, Bruce Co., Brant Twp.]
settled Lots 23 and 23 just north of Wm. Garland's lots

I found the above two settlers when looking in book 1. below.
1. History of Brant Twp. 1854-1979, page 133-134
2. Early History of Eden Grove and Vicinity.
  On page 85 there is a settler in my extended  family,
Joseph Stansal.   He settled in Brant Twp. Con.A, Lot 25,
which is only a few lots north of Wm. and George. So they probably knew
each other. Joseph's surname was mis-spelled by the clerk who   recorded
land transactions. The long and short of this that Joseph adopted this name
and that family still lives with that name.  More later
