Préambule / Preamble
Le projet de catalogage des archives des sociétés historiques du territoire de la MRC du HautSaint-Laurent, soit la Société historique de Saint-Anicet et la Société historique de la Vallée de la
Châteauguay, est né au sein du Comité culturel de la MRC du Haut-Saint-Laurent et vise à
soutenir l’œuvre de deux organismes culturels du territoire dans le recensement des documents
qu’ils possèdent et dans le partage de connaissances relatives à la gestion de collections. Le
projet a été réalisé grâce au financement de la Conférence Régionale des Élus (CRÉ) de la Vallée
du Haut-Saint-Laurent dans le cadre de l’appel de projets pour favoriser le développement de la
culture et des communications sur son territoire (2007).
The project to catalogue the archives of historical societies on the MRC du Haut-Saint-Laurent
territory (Saint-Anicet Historical Society and Chateauguay Valley Historical Society) was
initiated by the MRC’s Cultural Committee, whose objective was the support of both local
cultural organisations in the inventory of their documents and in the sharing of knowledge
concerning collection management. The project has been realized with the financial help of the
Conférence Régionale des Élus (CRÉ) de la Vallée du Haut-Saint-Laurent which called for
projects to further the cultural development and communication on its territory (2007).

Huntingdon Journal
[textual record (microform) / document textuel (microforme)]. - 1 microfilm reel / rouleau de microfilm ; 35mm.
Amos and Ransom Rowe, brothers and natives of Franklin, Quebec, bought the Huntingdon
Herald from Josiah Bell and renamed it the Huntingdon Journal, printing the first edition on May 16th,
1862. Initially, with tame editorials and keen business sense, the paper enjoyed prosperity, with the
subscription list reaching 1500 by 1863. Entry into partisan politics and infighting with the Gleaner
however eventually took its toll on the paper's reputation. Amos Rowe left the Huntingdon Journal in
1864. James Mann and John Gilmore Boyd took it over in April 1866. During their ownership the
personal and professional feud with Robert Sellar and the Gleaner further reduced the paper's
influence. The paper was sold to Samuel Boyd and Thomas K. Milne in 1870. The final issue
appeared June 30th, 1870. (source: Pioneer Journalism in the Chateauguay Valley. Robert Hill.
Amos et Ransom Rowe des frères natifs de Franklin, Québec, achètent le Huntingdon Herald de

Au départ avec des éditoriaux bien apprivoisés et un sens des affaires enthousiaste, le journal
connaît une belle prospérité avec un nombre d'abonnements atteignant les 1500 en 1863. Son
entrée en politique partisane et ses compétitions avec le Gleaner entachent la réputation du journal.
Amos Rowe quitte le Huntingdon Journal en 1864. James Mann et John Gilmore Boyd reprennent en
main le journal en avril 1866. Leurs querelles autant personnelles que professionnelles avec Robert
Sellar et le Gleaner contribueront à réduire davantage l'influence de la publication. Le journal sera
vendu à Samuel Boyd et Thomas K. Milne en 1870. La dernière édition sera publiée le 30 juin 1870,

Hugh Graham (Lord Atholstan)
Hugh Graham was born to R.W. Graham and Marion Gardner on July 18th, 1848 in Athelstan,
Quebec. He attended the Commissioners School in Hinchinbrooke and then the Huntingdon
Academy. At the age of 15 he began working for his uncle, Edmund Henry Parson, publisher of
the Commercial Advertiser of Montreal. Two years later he took up a post at the Montreal
Gazette and there met George T. Lanigan. At the age of twenty Hugh Graham, together with
George Lanigan, started The Evening Star (Montreal Star), which after several years of
difficulties eventually became a success. Hugh Graham also made a name for himself as a
humanitarian, leading the fight against a small-pox epidemic, set up soup kitchens, and
campaigned for a pure water supply and pasteurized milk for the island of Montreal. He was
knighted in 1908 and elevated to the Peerage of the United Kingdom as Baron of Atholstan of
Huntingdon, Quebec and of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland in 1917.

The Odelltown Methodist Church was built in 1823. It served as a fortification in

and suffered significant damage. Repairs were carried out on the Church in 1839,

congregation was constructed in 1852. The Church was closed in 1954 and the

Black's Church, Herdman / Église Black, Herdman
[textual record / documen textuel]. - 4 pages.
Black's Church, a timber-framed structure, was built in 1829 on the lot of Henry
Rennie between Herdman and Rockburn, Quebec. Today it is the location of the
Hillside Cemetery. It was named Black's Church after a family of that name that
lived nearby and who were entrusted with the key. In its early days Black's was a
community Church rather than serving only one faith. When a Presbyterian Church
was built nearby, Black's became a Methodist Church. It was replaced by Rennie's
Methodist Church in 1870. In 1872, the Church was moved to the lot of Henry
Rennie (a nephew of the original Henry Rennie) and used as a barn. It was
eventually restored by Henry's grandson Leslie Rennie. (source: "Black's Church &
Vicinity" by J.O. Gamble, CVHS Journal, 1968.)
L'église Black est un bâtiment de bois et est construite en 1829 sur le lot d'Henry
Rennie entre Herdman et Rockburn, Québec. Aujourd'hui, le site est le cimetière
11-06-2008 - Page 331
de Hillside. Son nom provient d'une famille du même patronyme qui vivait près et
à qui on avait confié les clés de l'église. Au départ, l'église servait toute la
communauté et non pas une seule religion. Lorsqu'une église presbytérienne fut
construite tout près, l'église Black est devenue seulement méthodiste. Elle
remplacée par l'église méthodiste Rennie en 1870. En 1872, l'église est déplacée
sur le lot d'Henri Rennie (neveu de Henry Rennie) et utilisée comme grange. Elle
est restaurée par son petit-fils, Leslie Rennie. (source : "Black's Church & Vicinity"

Cadastral records/ Cadastres abrégés
textuel.
In 1854, the legislature of Canada passed the Seigneurial Act of 1854, which
essentially abolished the seigneurial rights of the Seigneur and gave the land
"owners" the right to buy out their contract and own the land without restriction. In
return for the loss of their seigneurial rights and priviledges, the Act allowed for
compensation to the Seigneurs based on the value of their properties and the
annual rent that it yielded. A Commission was appointed to value the properties.
This "Cadastre Abrégé" (french for "Abreviated Land Ownership List") is the
resulting report from this Commission. It lists all of the lots, the name of the leasee,
11-06-2008 - Page 391
the size and shape of the lot, the value of the land and buildings if it was used for
non-agricultural purposes, and the annual "rente" that the leassee had to pay to the
Seigneur. Note that this Cadastre Abrege lists only the lots that were covered by
the Seigniorial "Rent" system. (Source : L'abolition du régime seigneurial (1854),

Marie-Josée
D'Amour,
http://www.prologue.qc.ca/edgon/universite/seigneurial.htm)
En 1854, le Conseil législatif du Canada abolit le régime seigneurial, la loi du 18
décembre 1854, rend la commutation obligatoire, c'est-à-dire qu'il oblige le
censitaire à racheter sa tenure et les droits seigneuriaux, ainsi il devient
indépendant de son seigneur et peut jouir de sa terre sans restrictions. En
compensation pour la perte de leurs privilèges et de leurs terres, les seigneurs
reçoivent de l'argent du gouvernement et la somme est basée sur la valeur de leur
propriété et des rentes annuelles perdues. Une commission est chargée d'évaluer
les montants. Le " Cadrastre abrégé " est le résultat de cette évaluation. C'est une
liste de lots, noms des locataire, la taille et l'état des lots, la valeur du terrain et des
bâtiments non utilisés pour l'agriculture et la rente annuelle du locataire devait au
seigneur. (Source : L'abolition du régime seigneurial (1854), par Marie-Josée

The Chateauguay Valley Historical Society is an active association formed in 1961 for the purpose of
encouraging education, research and conservation of the history of the Southwestern Quebec region. It is
a bi-cultural organization operating in a bilingual part of the country and their activities reflect this duality.

they have published an annual journal of articles reflecting a wide range of topics concerning local history
of the valley. (Chateauguay Valley Historical Society website)
