Members of DeLancey's Brigade, a Living History group based in Saint John, made a presentation on the August 1775 American privateer raid on the mouth of the St. John River, an early event in the Revolutionary War. This past August was the 250th Anniversary of this event.

The presentation was recorded and is on our YouTube Channel.

Number 2

“Traders, Raiders or Invaders?: Understanding the early Anglo-Scots colony of Nova Scotia 1628-1632.”

A great presentation by Xander Warren on the fleeting Scottish attempts at establishing the colony of Nova Scotia (covering modern-day NB and NS). Documentation about the colonies is incredibly limited, but Xander did a great job! Find it on our YouTube Channel.

Talk Number 3

Another great presentation. This one by Valerie Emmerson, who presented on Stone Church as a site where immigration, religious leadership, and public memory merged to shape civic authority in nineteenth-century Saint John, with particular attention to figures who were prominent citizens of Saint John. Soon to be on our YouTube Channel.
