Lilian Maxwell Genealogical Correspondence

MC300-MS3 York-Sunbury Historical Society Collection
Description (page 97)

If you are interested in any of these files then please contact the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick.

“Lilian Mary Beckwith Maxwell (1877-1956) was born in Fredericton, the daughter of Charles Beckwith and Mary Helen Glasier.  She graduated from the University of New Brunswick in 1898 with a Bachelor of Arts with Distinction in English.  She attended Wellington Teachers’ Training School in Massachusetts and the Provincial Normal School in Fredericton, and taught in Ludlow and Saint John.  She married James Brown Maxwell, an engineer.  After living in the United States for a short time, they, with their three children, settled in Fredericton.

Lilian Maxwell was a charter member of the York-Sunbury Historical Society, and wrote for the Society as well as for newspapers and magazines.  She had several books published including The History of Central New Brunswick and The River St. John and Its Poets.  She was a member of the Senate of the University of New Brunswick and received an honorary Doctorate of Laws from that Institution.  She was also a charter member of the Society for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and of the Governor Carleton Chapter of the Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire.

Her other interests included art and antiques.  Maxwell was a very active member of the Historical Society and in some cases in this series, it is difficult to differentiate between her personal correspondence and research and that done on behalf of the Society.  She produced a great many family genealogies and responded to numerous inquiries in the form of letters to Maxwell, which date from 1932 to 1965.  They are arranged by the surname of the main family being researched.  The names in brackets are also mentioned in the correspondence and the date following the name refers to the date of the inquiry.  In many cases, the amount of genealogical information actually provided is minimal.  This series measures 50 centimeters.”

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.
