book On Stony Ground

On Stony Ground

 

Brenda Lee-Whiting

 
 
from the back cover
In this, her second, book that deals with the settlement of German-speaking immigrants in eastern Ontario, Brenda Lee-Whiting has concentrated on the pictorial records of their presence, including photographs, old and new, and documents such as the ‘ship’s contract’
of the Okum family that tell the story. Residents of the area may recognize some of the last blacksmiths in the county, or such well-known people as Granny Grife of Rankin and Mud-Lake Annie of Augsburg. The photographs of the author show the tools and handmade furnishings that were crafted by the immigrants who tackled a wilderness location in the years following 1858 and made a comfortable home for themselves and their large families. The limitations of small and isolated farms made it inevitable that some family members would leave the area in the 20th century to find employment elsewhere. The story of those who went north to found another German speaking community known as Krugerdorf is told in details and there is a sketch-map of Camp Petawawa that shows the original land-holders in that area who left unwillingly when the government wanted it. The population of German descent in this county and the number of people who still speak the German language have both declined and the material evidence is dwindling fast. The author is collecting and publishing information before time erases the records.
