This month's OGS Ottawa Branch presentation is by John J. Heney, President, Friends of Ottawa City Archives, and author of John Heney & Sons, The Canadian Saga of an Ottawa Irish Family.

I've been reading John's book over the summer and have been impressed by the number of resources he has been able to draw on. His ancestors certainly got around, from Gaspe to the Yukon, and had an important hand in Ottawa's development.

The meeting, jointly with Sir Guy Carleton United Empire Loyalists’ Association, is on Tuesday 21 September, 2010, 7:30 p.m. in room 156 at Library and Archives Canada
