Talk:Thérèse Casgrain

Typo in Archives section?
Last summer, when you added the additional information about the fonds at LAC, you mentioned that the start date is 1818. Is that really correct? I would have thought it was 1918, the year Casgrain first went to Ottawa with her husband? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 06:57, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi - Yes, the start date of the fonds is 1818. The earliest file in the fonds is in the series PAPIERS PERSONNELS ET DE FAMILLE (Personal and family papers) in a file called Famille Casgrain - souvenirs. The date range of the file is 1818-1937. The file is located in volume 10, file 3. This specific series contains a number of files that were created before Thérèse Casgrain's time, but since she held those records as part of her own fonds, they have been organized as a series within the fonds. 1818-1981 are the outside dates of the material, although the fonds is predominantly 1900s-1981.Archyvette (talk) 12:27, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Very interesting, thanks! I knew that the Casgrain family has deep roots;  this is an indication of just how deep!  Appreciate the additions you've been making to a number of articles about the archival sources.  Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 13:44, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
