Meet a Member: Fred White

We didn't have a picture of Fred White in time for this post so we substituted a picture of Fred Coleman with his famous frog.

How long have you been with the York Sunbury Historical Society?

Since 1968

What brought you to the YSHS?

Did support for the YSHS in 1968, as an Accountant responsible for the Military Compound Board, which controlled the Officers’ Barracks.  I took over the Compound’s books and did their Annual Financial Statements.

Have you held any offices or been on any committees over the years?

I have held many offices over the years, and served on several committees.  (Note from Ruth:  Some of the offices that Fred has held include but are not limited to President, Treasurer and Editor of the Officers’ Quarters.  He has written several articles for the Officers’ Quarters and received a Long Service Award from the Society’s Board in 2009).

What do you like most about the Society?

The Society actively preserves and exhibits history in a variety of formats, technologies and dimensions.  It is a vehicle and catalyst for growth of Heritage for the people of Greater Fredericton and beyond.

  1. Do you know what the Intercolonial & later CN RR station at Marysville sign said?
    It seems from the picture I have it was more than just Marysville.

    Thanks
