What can we learn about Sophy Bliss Carman and her more famous family by reading her diary and correspondence? Was she a stereotypical “Victorian lady” who believed that women should be pure, pious and submissive? Or was she more intellectually engaged, independent and assertive in managing her family and household that such a stereotypical characterization would imply?

The Old Church at Maugerville (Sunbury Co.) On the site where now stands the Episcopal Church at Maugerville, there stood, some thirty years ago, an old Episcopal Church, said to be the first Protestant Church erected in New Brunswick. For many years this was the only Church in Maugerville. Later came the Baptist Church. The Congregational and Methodist Churches were in the adjoining parish of Sheffield. … One rector Rev. John SAYRE died in 1794. (see original) SUN Jan. 24 – Your correpondent is indebted to postamaster W.H. BENT and James H. CLARK for the information hereunto appended. It may be noticed as far as traditionally known as the first superstructure of the Church in question was of logs; and about the year 1787, a more substantial structure of the Church was put up upon which repairs were made in 1792, which date we get from J.H. Clark, who now has in his possesion the old copper weather-cock, iron spindle and shaft made and placed upon the Church at that time by his grandfather. The inscription reads thus: ‘Made by Alexander CLARK, for Christ’s Church, Maugerville, 1792. It may be here mentioned that Alexander Clark was one of the first vestry men and Col. DEPEYSTER one of the first wardens of this Church. Our informant claims that his father William CLARK worshipped in all three of those Churches, which have the longest continuity upon the same sight of any in the Province. The first rector of this old Episcopal Churchn was Rev. John Sayre. And herewith is a true copy of what is inscribed upon an ash cross about 4 1/3 feet high: ‘Here Lies the Body of the Rev. John Sayre – formerly Rector of Trinity Church, Fairfield, Connecticut and one of society’s missionaries to that place, from thence refugee with his family within His Majesty’s lines in New York and from New York, upon the evacuation of it by British troops to this place; who departed this life at Burton on the St. John River, upon the 5th of August, in the year of Our Lord, 1784, in the 47th year of his age. The next rector was Rev. John BEARDSLEY, a graduate of Parr Town, who after a time went to Kings Co. and died there. J.H. Clark took up his residence here in 1884, a lapse of 91 years from the time his grandfather left. He learned that the old Church edifice had been sold to Eben HORTON of Boston. The material which went into Mr. Horton’s buildings, where he found the old trophy now in his possession, which was 100 years old last July. In the Church yard we find an irregular field stone, upon the west side of which was cut, ‘B. CARMAN, died 29th Jan. 1793, aged 8 years 2 mos.’ (see original) (see also SUN Jan. 5 – The Old Maugerville Church)

An Interview with the ‘Telegraph’: Dr. Samuel G. WOODFORDE Talks of Men Half a Century Ago – Fredericton In the Days of Its Glory. – Dr, Woodforde was born in Fredericton, April 20, 1823. Said the doctor ‘My father, Dr. William WOODFORDE was born at Ansford House, Somersetshire, England; he served as assistant surgeon on the peninsula under Wellington and was wounded at the seige of Badaioz. He came to New Brunswick with the 104th Regt., 1812-1813, as assistant surgeon and accompanied it on its memorable march to Quebec. Later he returned to Fredericton where he practiced medecine for many years and married Lucy Ann MILLER daughter of Col. MILLER, a loyalist, who was in command of one of the provincial regiments, and by whom he reared a family of two boys and two girls. Mrs. MILLER was a sister of Judge WINSLOW of the supreme court of Massachusetts. The eldest d/o Col. Miller married Hon. Col. Harris HAILES, once president of this Province. She and her husband are buried in the old graveyard at Fredericton. They had one son, Harris HAILES who was a Lt. Col. in the British army and died in England many years since. Col. Miller’s youngest son, Samuel MILLER, was not imbued with his father’s loyalty, and at the time of his death, which occurred at Philadelphia, was second in command of the U.S. Marines. Edward Winslow MILLER, second s/o Col. Miller, married Mary WINSLOW a d/o late Judge Winslow. They had 14 or 15 children, most of whom died young. Their only daughter married the late Chief Justice. Sir James CARTER and died in Fredericton, leaving two or three sons, one of whom is now a captain in the British army. The late Henry SMITH, J.P. and merchant of Fredericton married another daughter of Col. Miller; they reared four sons and one daughter who married the late D. Ludlow ROBINSON of Fredericton and left two daughters, the eldest one of whom was the first wife of Dr. George Moutain ODELL. Woodeford SMITH, late deputy provincial secretary, is their only surviving child. Woodeford Smith’s eldest daughter became the wife of late Dr. Thomas GREGORY.’ – Dr. Woodeford relit his pipe and resumed – ‘I told you that my father married Lucy Ann MILLER. … My father built and occupied for many years the old house with a verandah in the front that stands on Brunswick St. near the Cathedral. After many years he returned to Somersetshire where he died.’ ‘There was Col. SHORE, captain of the 104th Regt. He married Henrietta SAUNDERS d/o late Chief Justice SAUNDERS. Col. SHORE’s eldest son, John SHORE was killed with most of his officers at the head of his regiment in the Punjaub. Another son of Col. Shore was Rev. Wm SHORE, late curate of St. Paul’s who died in England. He married the eldest d/o late Charles KETCHUM, barrister of Fredericton. – ‘Another gentleman of whom I have a distinct recollection’, resumed Dr. Woodeforde, ‘was Harry CLOPPER s/o Garrick HOPPER, who was formerly an officer in one of the provincial regiments. He married Mary Ann KETCHUM eldest d/o Richard KETCHUM of Woodstock; he was the first president of the Central Bank of Fredericton and died about 50 years ago. They had two daughters, one of whom married Dr. Charles PETERS and the other is the wife of Geo. BOTSFORD, Esq., Fredericton. Lucy Ann CLOPPER, the eldest sister of Harry Clopper, was the wife of the late Charles SIMONDS of Portland (St. John). – ‘I spoke’, continued the doctor, ‘of the marriage of Col. Shore to a d/o Chief Justice SAUNDERS, president of the Legislative Council. – ( Reporter: Tell me something of yourself) -‘My story is brief’, answered the doctor, ‘I went to England in 1835 or 1836; studied my profession at Gray’s Hospital and graduated in Germany in 1840. I was in London at the coronation and marriage of Queen Victoria, watched the burning of the armory tower from London Bridge, heard Peel and O’Connor speak in Parliament, attended the funeral of Sir Astley Cooper from Guy’s Hospital, saw Wellington and Lord Brougham frequently and returned to this Province in 1843 or 1844. My eldest sister married the late John GRANT, civil engineer, of Fredericton and now resides in London with her daughter, Mrs. William LOYS. Mrs. Woodforde is the d/o late Rev. Abram WOOD, rector of Cambridge (Queens Co.)

Many readers of the ‘Gazette’ have been pained to hear of the death of Samuel George WOODFORDE, whose remains will be laid away in their last resting place at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. Dr. WOODFORDE was a gentleman of high standing and an accomplished scholar in ancient and modern literature. His father, Dr. William WOODFORDE, was born at Ansford House, Somersetshire, England and served as assistant surgeon on the peninsula, under Wellington and was wounded at the siege of Badajoz. He came to New Brunswick with the 104th Regiment, 1812-1813 as assistant surgeon and accompanied it on its memorable march to Quebec.

The elder Dr. Woodford built and occupied for many years the house with verandah in front that stands on Brunswick Street near the Fredericton catheDral. When quite advanced in years he returned to Sumersetshire, England where he died. Dr. Samuel George WOODFORDE, who was born in 1821, went to England in 1835 or 1836, studied at Guy’s Hospital and graduated in Germany in 1840. He was in London at the coronation and marriage of Queen Victoria, watched the burning of the Armory tower from London bridge, heard Peel and O’Connor speak in parliament, attended the funeral of Sir Astley Cooper, saw Wellington and Lord Brougham frequently and returned to this province in 1844. The widow of Dr. WOODFORDE is a d/o late Rev. Abram WOOD, rector of Cambridge (Queens Co.)

Top 20 Artefacts Survey Results for Week Ending August 21st 2010

Lady's Roller Skates (1983.7.3a&b)

These roller skates (1983.7.3) have firm leather boots with steel soles and wheels.

Our Top 20 survey has completed its fourth week and our list of artefacts continues to grow!  Patrons placed votes for over 20 artefacts this week of which only 9 were in our Top 20 from previous weeks.  The list was shaken up a little bit but only for the artefacts that are below #6 on the list.  With only a week and a half left to place votes, it will be very interesting to see what happens! 

Click here for last week’s Top 20 Results!

stereoscope

Stereoscopes were used to view cards taken with a stereo camera. The cards were placed in the slots and pulled towards the viewer. As the image came into focus it would appear three dimensional. This type of viewer was popular during the Victorian era.

The objects in the first 6 spots have not changed a lot.  The Coleman Frog, Harvey Studio camera and the Penny Farthing Bicycle continued to dominate the votes and the Horse Tricycle continued to hold a spot in the top 5.  The World War I Machine Gun was bumped down to #6 the 1914 Cash Register reclaimed the #5 spot that it held a few weeks ago!  

Benjamin Wolhaupter Steam Engine

In 1858, George Wolhaupter married Harriett Carman. Their son, Benjamin, was born in 1859. When George died in 1860, his wife and son moved to Ontario. Benjamin possessed great mechanical ability, and ultimately became an engineer who specialized in railroad tracks. He took out 215 patents for inventions, and was a successful manufacturer and businessman. Benjamin built this steam engine.

There doesn’t appear to be any new objects in the Top 20 but I think that it’s interesting that four of the Top 20 artefacts are from World War I.  If you look at the overall votes since we started this survey, another 5 World War I objects received votes including the Trench Armour (#39) that we posted infromation about last week.  The First World War was such a horrifying yet interesting time in history.  People find the artefacts in our Trench exhibit fascinating and often have a difficult time narrowing a vote down to just one object.  

Ackerman Tavern Beam (1969.2204.1)

The Ackerman Tavern Beam is an unusual artefact that is steeped in history! Unfortunately, it has only 1 vote so far and will not make it to the Top 20!

Some of the objects receiving votes for the first time this week are the Lady’s Roller Skates, the Wolhaupter Steam Engine, the Ackerman Tavern Beam and the Stereoscope.  

The Ackerman Tavern Beam (1969.2204.1) inspired Fredericton Arts Alliance artist in residence, Katherine Moller, to write a song about it during her residency.  This beam had been in the Ackerman Tavern at the corner of the St. John and Queen Street, until it was demolished in 1961 to make way for the current Playhouse.  The tavern had been the first meeting place of the New Brunswick Legislature.  We posted a blog about the Ackerman Tavern Beam last Summer!

Grenade Fire Extinguisher (1987-25-2)

Grenade fire extinguishers (1987-25-2) were thrown at small fires, the chemicals inside smother the fire. These were commonly found in hotels with carpet flooring.

The Wolhaupter Steam Engine was made by Benjamin Wolhaupter (1800-1857) nephew.  Benjamin’s portrait hangs in the same gallery where you’ll find the steam engine.  Benjamin was a silversmith, clockmaker, High Sheriff of York County, President of Central Fire Insurance co., Director of the Bank of New Brunswick, a Commissioner for Government House (1840-2) and other public buildings in Fredericton (1843-8) and Captain and Quartermaster of the York Sunbury Regiment of Militia during the 1839 border dispute.  A devout Anglican, and a close friend of the Lord Bishop of Fredericton, the Rt. Rev. John Medley.  Medley purchased Benjamin’s home at 97 Church Street, Fredericton, upon his death in 1857.  

I’m looking forward to seeing what happens with the list over the last week and a half of votes!  If you have a favourite artefact that is not on the list or not as high on the list that you think it should be, then visit the York Sunbury Museum and place a vote!!
