Zepha Trevorrow fonds
CA ON00159 P096 · Fonds · 1911

The Zepha Trevorrow fonds consists of 15 postcards and two letters that Ed Trevorrow sent to his wife, Zepha, while in Northern Ontario in 1911. The fonds gives insight into the life of a gold prospector in Northern Ontario in the early 1900s. Indeed, not only does Ed Trevorrow report of his gold prospecting to his wife, but the correspondence also accounts for the different locations visited between July 10 and August 15, 1911.

Although Trevorrow travelled between Timmins and North Bay, and even on the Québec side of the region of Temiscaming, the images of the postcards mostly depict the South Porcupine 1911 fire, and early mine settlements of the same area.

Huntington University fonds
CA ON00159 P109 · Fonds · [ca. 1762]-2002 (predominant 1958-1976)

The Huntington University fonds consists mainly of correspondence, minutes, documentation, publications, yearbooks and photographs. The records document the administration of Huntington University. Not all functions performed at the University are documented and the records focus on the first 15 years of administration at Huntington. For instance, there are no records from the academic programs. Records created and used by the Board of Regents along with Silas Huntington records can be found in the fonds. Many records attest to the different roles performed by Rev. Dr. Earl Lautenslager as Chairman of the Northern Ontario University Association (NOUA), his administration of Huntington University as the first President and his ministry at St. Andrew's United Church. The records of the President/Principal's office are the most abundant. The records show the diversity of the work the President/Principal completed at the University, from corresponding with various individuals to planning the convocations. Information about student life at Huntington is well documented through the residence handbooks, student newsletters and yearbooks. A vast collection of photographs of the students also help provide a visual of their activities on campus. Other photographs can be found that depict the beginnings of Huntington on the Laurentian University campus and individuals such as the Board of Regents, faculty and staff. Documentation can be found on the history of Huntington and the United Church, along with various pieces of literature.

The fonds is arranged in 8 series: Series I: Board of Regents; Series II: President's Office; Series III: President/Principal's Office; Series IV: Finance; Series V: Residence; Series VI: Huntington College Student Association; Series VII: Photographs and Series VIII: Documentation.

CA ON00159 P112 · Fonds · 1892-1969

The fonds consisting of minutes, financial documents, documentation and photographs is complete for the years 1892-1968. The first four years are not documented. The records illustrate well the functions and the evolution of the School Board. Records can be found for 23 districts and the evolution is well documented in the minutes and the financial documents. The minutes and attachments inform us on what was the school system in the past and its mechanisms for decision making; the records also put into light the characteristics of each district. In addition, the minutes inform us on the harmonization of two language groups. Documents found in some districts are only in French while in other districts they are only in English, and for others the documents are in both languages. Not only do the records inform us on the community, but also on its participation and involvement in the school system. The participation of parents and teachers is illustrated through the minutes of the parent/teacher association (PTA). The financial documents depict the financial administration and the funds available at the time. One can find information about the expenditures for the purchase of supplies and furnishings. The salary increases of the School Board employees are well documented in the accounting books. In addition, documentation can be found on the school activities of certain districts. The photographs add to the information contained in the documentation of certain schools of the McKim District.

This fonds is arranged in 25 series. Twenty-three of the series are based on geographical districts. The series are arranged in alphabetical order, except for the first series of McKim, this being the first established district. Series XXIV and XXV consist of general information.
