Hiya, I spent most of my day on the phone, slowly going through my list. It seems most of the Anglican churches have office hours early in the weeks, so I didn't get a hold of too many, but I have been invited to the Colwood Historical Association meeting on Monday as well as to Dick Emory's house to see his private collection of artifacts and newspaper clippings from when his father served and was wounded in France! That is probably the most exciting, although I located many churches from the 1910's and learned a bit about the Anglican mission in the 1870s from a very chatty Rector's Assistant. I also located the church where Pearkes is burried and another whose reverend served with the 88th Regiment, Victoria Fusiliers. All churches seemed interested in circulating a poster in the coming weeks.

Another vital piece of information is that the Anglican archives close for July and August, so I'm hoping to arrange multiple visits but may want someone to join me for some of them as those archives hold a lot of info and are only open two half-days a week. I will keep you posted. I guess that takes away all my show and tell for tomorrow, but I'll see you all then!

Ben

PS: because I'm contacting so many groups, I've made a new email for myself just for CGTW. If you want to make this your primary contact info for me it will help me keep things all in one place. It is ben.cgtw@gmail.com
