Athabasca University student Anne Touchie, visiting the Deck of Space Ship Stanton Friedman! Anne is studying Heritage Resource Management and chose the Fredericton Region Museum as her subject for a report on conservation. We are looking forward to see the end result and putting her recommendations in to action! Anne also helped out last year with our transcription project and we hope to continue to work with her in the future!

Should we ask Avi Loeb to speak at our Stanton Friedman lecture series this summer? https://www.scientificamerican.com//astronomer-avi-loeb-s/

FEBRUARY 18 VIRTUAL PRESENTATION Abraham Beverley Walker: Barrister & Solicitor with Peter Little 7 pm, Thursday, February 18, 2021 VIA Zoom... Contact us for the ZOOM Link The remarkable life of New Brunswick’s first Black lawyer, Abraham Beverley Walker, will be the focus of the next presentation in the York Sunbury Historical Society's Speaker Series featuring author and historian Peter Little. This LIVE event is FREE and will be held via ZOOM at 7 pm on Thursday, February 18, 2021. The presentation will be recorded and made available online after the event. Peter J. Little is a journalist and historian who began writing in the 1980s as a freelance writer for the Reader Magazine, a Saturday Supplement of the Brunswick News group of papers. His writings have appeared in various publications, including the Evening Times Globe, the Telegraph Journal, the Kings County Record, Generations Magazine, the Officers' Quarters and the Daily Gleaner feature, Forgotten New Brunswick. Peter is a board member of the New Brunswick Black History Society. Peter has focused his sights most recently on telling untold stories from our past, stories of people who have fallen through the cracks in the floor of history; and Abraham Walker was one of those. In just under two years, Peter Little has elevated Abraham Beverley Walker from the ‘dustbin’ of history to the loftiest position afforded a citizen. Seeking to right a wrong, Peter has pushed Abraham Walker’s story to the front and centre of the provincial discourse. Walker’s life and times have been the subject of three recent newspaper articles, several television and radio interviews and most recently, Walker has been the posthumous recipient of the Order of New Brunswick, the highest award that can be bestowed upon a citizen of the province.

VIRTUAL Presentation on The Urban Battle for ORTONA 7 pm, Thursday, November 19, 2020 VIA Zoom Contact us for the ZOOM Link The Urban Battle for Ortona during the Italian Campaign will be the focus of the upcoming York Sunbury Historical Society's virtual speaker series featuring historian Major Jayson Geroux. ... This LIVE event is FREE and will be held via ZOOM at 7 pm on Thursday, November 19, 2020. The presentation will be recorded and made available online after the event. Major Jayson R. J. Geroux, C.D., M.A., is a member of the Directing Staff, Tactics School, at CFB Gagetown’s Combat Training Centre, and an Urban Warfare and Counter-I.E.D. Specialist. Major Geroux will closely examine the 2nd Canadian Infantry Brigade’s day-by-day decisions and combat actions during December 1943. He will follow the 2nd Brigade’s struggle through Ortona’s streets to understand how they attempted to impose order on what has historically been labelled as chaos. This discussion links the tangled nest of dramatic stories in time and space to reveal the chain of historical cause and consequence. It also considers how geography, force composition, weapons systems, and the presence of substantial numbers of Italian civilians all factored in the outcome. The urban battle followed hard on the Ortona campaign's "Battle of The Gully", providing a fitting complement to Capt. David Hughes’ November 12 presentation in the lecture series.
