War Brides of the Second World War

BIFHSGO is pleased to announce the launch of its Canadian War Brides project. Find it linked in the Research & Projects section of the website under the "Migration" category.

1946 was the year that most war brides arrived in Canada and so it is appropriate to highlight this period of time 75 years later. The project website page includes an introduction to the project and also a list of war bride ships and voyages. 

For each war bride, there's a unique story. You can access some that have connections to BIFHSGO members through a handy chart which presently has ten stories.

The War Bride project will undergo further development.

Congratulations to BIFHSGO Research & Projects Director John McConkey who has championed this project.

Also, don't forget the BIFHSGO monthly meeting on Saturday.
