Te Detroit River theatre is the forgotten frontier
of what has been called the forgotten war.
Amid the recent food of writings on the War of
1812, surprisingly little has been done to illuminate
British operations in this frontier. Yet, the two fore-
most fgures to emerge from this war made their
names here Brock, knighted for his capture of De-
troit and Tecumseh, whose Native followers proved
to be the principal defenders.
In 1812, senior British commanders considered
this area as critical to the defence of Upper Cana-
da. Isaac Brock termed Amherstburg the frst and
most important point and declared that if it fell into
American hands, he would have to evacuate all Up-
per Canada to Kingston.
U.S. ofcials also recognized the importance of
what President James Madison called Uppermost
Canada and launched their frst assault here, ex-
pecting an easy victory.
Tomas Jeferson spoke of the conquest as a mat-
ter of marching and march they did to Quebec
City as prisoners of war or else to their home states
as paroled prisoners. More Americans soldiers were
captured here than on the remaining theatres of Up-
per Canada combined.
However, despite a string of Anglo-Native victo-
ries, the tide turned. Madison committed virtually un-
limited funds to this frontier. In Ohio, Fort Meigs was
constructed as a springboard for invasion. It was the
largest wooden fortifcation of its day in North Amer-
ica. Te Americans also built a superior feet which
gained mastery on Lake Erie, enabling U.S. forces to
invade Essex County in their largest amphibious op-
eration conducted to that time. British priorities to
the east lef local defenders severely disadvantaged
and afer the battle of Moraviantown, Essex and Kent
counties endured a harsh military occupation.
During the frst year, local militia were repeatedly
called out to augment the scant British troops. While
engaged in far-fung campaigns, their crops went
neglected, producing severe food shortages. Under
the American occupation, conditions only got worse
with harvests commandeered, ofen on credit. In ad-
dition to losing much of their provisions, the resi-
dents were robbed of the very means of their liveli-
hood horses, livestock, frearms, farm implements
and a host of household items. Tose who continued
to serve on the British side had their homes burned
down. Suspected collaborators were carried of to
confnement in the U.S.
Unknown numbers died of malnutrition and dis-
ease and by 1815, Essex and Kent counties were a vir-
tual wasteland. Invaded at the outset and occupied for
the last half of the war, they endured devastation that
was unmatched by any other part of British North
America. Although these counties comprised only
one-twentieth of Upper Canadian population, they
accounted for one-quarter of all war losses claims.
On the occasion of the bicentennial of the War of
1812, this edition provides a glimmering of a strange
and complex war on its forgotten theatre.

degrees from Western, Carleton and Toronto univer-
sities. He retired from the Canadian Forces as a ma-
jor and turned to teaching, research and writing. His
comprehensive account A Wampum Denied: Procter`s
War of 1812 is recipient of the American Library As-
sociation Choice Award. He also wrote Invasions and
co-authored Duty nobly Done: the Ofcial History of

British troops, Indians and French settlers made history on
the march during the turbulent War of 1812. Now you can re-
trace their steps and connect with their fascinating past during
commemorative events happening throughout 2012 and into
2015. Various organizations are ready to assist and guide you.
As every general knows, a great campaign requires or-
ganization and communication. Several years ago, after the
federal and provincial governments recognized the signif-
cance of the 1812 bicentennial, Ontario was divided into
seven regions, each assigned a project facilitator.
Kyra Knapp is the project facilitator for the South West re-
gion encompassing Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent. She
works with more than 25 groups, including Amherstburg and
other municipalities, Tourism Windsor Essex Pelee Island and
history enthusiasts, all hosting various events. The continu-
ously updated schedule is listed online at 1812ontario.ca.
When you have questions about applying for grant fund-
ing or promoting an event, Im the person to come to, says
Knapp. She can be contacted at 519-784-1851.
If businesses can get on board, its a great opportunity
for them, she adds.
In late May, she will make available templates of resourc-
es for local businesses, including restaurants and hotels
wanting to be involved.
There is defnite recognition of how important this area
is, not only for our history but also for tourism.
Knapp expects a lot of people will be visiting the area.
With soldiers in uniform, artwork, tallships, genealogists,
childrens activities, period food and fashion and so much
else to experience, We encourage everyone to come and
explore their history.
One of the highlights this summer will be Roots to Boots
1812, Amherstburgs signature event packed with activities
throughout August 3 to 5. Chief Tecumseh and General Brock
will be in attendance, looking right at home amidst spirited
volunteers and visitors wearing period dress.
Over the three days, we anticipate approximately 50,000
people, says Anne Rota, facilitator in Amherstburgs Tourism
and Special Events offce. Special Windsor Transit buses and
shuttles will help transport out-of-town people back in time
to Amherstburg.
An Amherstburg events schedule can be seen at 1812am-
herstburg.com. Rota can be contacted at 519-730-1309.
Were really excited in our community, says Rota. Its a
once in a 200-year time to shine!

Te sun was shining benevolently upon the little
settlement of Sandwich on July 12, 1812. In gardens
surrounding the cluster of snug homes, fruit grew a
mite fuller on the peach and apple trees. Bees gath-
ered nectar from the cheerful fowers, ignoring so-
cietys edict to toil not on Sundays. A whisper on
a sudden breeze carried over the Detroit River, its
secret too quiet to be overheard.
It was a lovely day for an invasion.
Weeks prior, on June 18, the American gov-
ernment, under President James Madison, had
declared war on Great Britain. As Britain was an
ocean away, the nearest target within strategic
striking distance was one of its colonies, Canada.
Te American governments reasons for going
to war were varied. One motivation arose from the
long, costly war between Britain and France, fought
in Europe and on the high seas. Americans object-
ed to the British Royal Navys custom of seizing
U.S. ships ostensibly to search for deserting British
sailors and then taking American seamen by force
to serve in the British navy. Te British also seized
goods transported on U.S. trading vessels.
Tere were also loose ends and hard feelings
lef over from the American War of Independence
from Britain, the loss of United Empire Loyalists
feeing the U.S. for Canada, and Britains refusal to
recognize British immigrants living in the U.S. as
Americans: to the British government, they were
still British subjects.
Tere were many issues that had never been re-
solved, says Trevor Price, retired Professor of Po-
litical Science at the University of Windsor, presi-
dent of the Essex County Historical Society and an
author currently writing his next book, focusing on
Tecumseh, the War of 1812 and the betrayal of the
indigenous peoples of North America.
Te Americans werent the only people with is-
sues. On the American frontier, the Indians didnt
like Americans because they were always squatting
on the Indians land, says Price. Shawnee Chief
Tecumseh was crisscrossing North America, trying
to unite every tribe into a confederacy that would
protect against the future sale of all Indian-held
property.
Te U.S. had great ambitions, Price says.
Compared to Upper Canadas population of
77,000, by 1812, the U.S. had 7 million citizens,
with more immigrants pouring in. Te country
had been aggressively claiming the west coast and
Mexico.
Americans had the idea that Canada was go-
ing to be easy to take, Price observes. Tis notion
was bolstered by former president Tomas Jefer-
son, who assured the exercise was a mere matter
of marching.
For the estimated 2,500 American soldiers un-
der the command of Brigadier General William
Hull, the walk was long, up through Ohio and
Michigan to the Detroit River. Since the British
Royal Navy was patrolling Lake Erie, marching was
safer for the cautious American general.
It was a bit of a surprise to the British, I think,
that the Americans frst chose to attack on the De-
troit frontier, Price remarks. Tey decided to at-
tack in the Western District because they thought
it was very weak.
Te area was populated predominantly by French
families who settled there in the 1700s. Tere were
also Indians, and from the U.S., escaped black
slaves and Loyalists faithful to the Crown. Stationed
at Fort Amherstburg (later named Malden) was a
small contingent of the kings seasoned soldiers.
Landing in Sandwich, Hull of the North West-
ern Army of the United States commandeered
the home of his prestigious Canadian friend and
now enemy, Colonel Francois Baby. His troops cut
down the fruit trees for barricades and frewood
and looted the area. Tat day, full of swagger, Hull
circulated his proclamation to the Inhabitants
of Canada, promising, You will be emancipated
from Tyrany [sic] and oppression and restored to
the dignifed station of freemen.
Tere was a catch: If contrary to your own in-
terest, and the just expectation of my Country, you
should take part in the approaching contest, you
will be considered & treated as enemies, & the hor-
rors & calamities of war will stalk before you. If the
barbarous & savage policy of Great Britain be pur-
sued, and the savages are let loose to murder our
citizens, & butcher our women and children, the
war, will be a war of extermination.
About 500 Canadians deserted their mandatory
militia.
Te American commanders bravado wavered,
however. British troops had retreated strategically
to their fort in Amherstburg; Hull, waiting for his
canon to arrive, was reluctant to attack.
On July 16, he sent troops to reconnoitre Am-
herstburg. Tey skirmished with two British sol-
diers at River Canard, killing one; the Americans
captured the bridge but then withdrew.
Tey set out for Amherstburg again on July
19 and 20 but were repelled by the British. Near
Turkey Creek on July 25, Indian warriors killed six
American soldiers. Te casualties had begun.

Canadas forces were under the command of
General Isaac Brock, a career army ofcer with ex-
perience in battle and a very capable ofcer, Price
says. Brock had 5,000 trained British troops, plus
several thousand civilians who were conscripted
to serving in the militia. Tecumseh was the recog-
nized leader of First Nations warriors prepared to
fght by the side of the British.
Tey were both bold, strategic leaders, Price
remarks.
Te U.S. had greater numbers to press into
military service, but they were inexperienced. In
the battle between Canada and the U.S., you had
a professional army against a rather amateurish
army.
At the outset, luck was on Canadas side. On July
2, the Cuyahoga, an American supply boat des-
tined for Detroit, carrying soldiers and Hulls battle
plans, was captured on the Detroit River by a hand-
ful of Canadians. Hulls papers were forwarded to
Brock, who detected a rather fearful and dejected
general, says Price.
Brock exploited the psychological weakness of
his enemy.
As soon as war was declared, Brock had started
organizing his troops. He gave permission to attack
the American Fort Mackinac on Michilimackinac,
an island where Lakes Huron and Michigan meet.
On July 17, a fur trader led Indian warriors, Brit-
ish soldiers and voyageurs on a takeover mission.
Te Americans surrendered without a fght. Hull
learned of the defeat on July 29.
His dread of Indian attack was reinforced on
Aug. 5, when Tecumseh led an ambush against an
American provision train in Brownstown, Michi-
gan. Another skirmish on Aug. 8 at Maguaga fur-
ther rattled Hull.
With his supply lines cut, he withdrew his troops
to Detroit.
Meanwhile, Brock and a large military contin-
gent made their way south to Amherstburg, ar-
riving Aug. 13. Brock was pleased to meet his ally,
Chief Tecumseh. Realizing American troops far
outnumbered the Canadian side, Brock and Te-
cumseh decided to go on the ofensive regardless.
Brock sent a message to Hull, calling for his sur-
render. Hull refused.
On Aug. 16, in boats and canoes, 550 soldiers, ci-
vilian militia dressed as British troops and 600 First
Nation warriors crossed the river and marched on
Fort Detroit. Fearing a wholesale massacre by the
Indians, Hull surrendered without fring a shot.
He sent his son out with a white fag, Price says.
America was humiliated.
Troughout September, Indian attacks on
American forts continued; the U.S. captured
Gananoque and British schooners. Determined to
conquer Canada, American forces under General
Henry Harrison crossed the Niagara River to at-
tack Queenston Heights on Oct. 13, 1812. Brock,
front and centre in the counterattack, was shot and
killed. British forces battled their foes for hours, ul-
timately overpowering them.
General Henry Procter took charge of the Ca-
nadian forces. A good leader, he didnt have the
boldness and charisma of Brock, Price notes.
However, Procter maintained the warfare strat-
egy of British regulars marching formal lines, fr-
ing as they advanced. Indian warriors slipped
'Bold leaders'
British General Isaac Brock (left) and Chief Tecumseh were two bold, heroic leaders who died
in battle during the War of 1812: Brock in Queenston Heights on Oct. 13, 1812 and Tecumseh in
the Battle of Moraviantown (or Thames) on Oct. 5, 1813.
Canadian historian Pierre Berton wrote in his 1980 book The American Invasion of Canada
that Brock was "the frst Canadian war hero" after his death in the Battle of Queenston
Heights.
As for Tecumseh, Berton wrote in his 1981 book Flames Across the Border:
"Elusive in life,Tecumseh remains invisible in death....His followers have spirited
him away to a spot where no stranger, be he British or American, will ever fnd him
his earthly clay, like his own forlorn hope, buried forever in a secret grave."

through the woods and swamp to fank Americans
from the side and back.
Te element of surprise and the vigour of
guerilla attack were very ofsetting, especially to
American militia used to shooting deer, not men,
Price says. Te Americans ofen fed when the
fghting got heavy.
Americans gathered in Frenchtown, Michi-
gan on the River Raisin to protect the settlement
against a rumoured British attack. Canadian forces
and Indian allies struck on Jan. 22, 1813, capturing
or killing Americans.
Troughout 1813, territory was won and lost for
both sides fghting on land and water. U.S. troops
burned York, the capital of Upper Canada, on April
27. Tey captured the ammunition supply intended
for Fort Amherstburg.
In the spring of 1813, the British launched an-
other fght from Amherstburg. Tecumseh and
1,200 Indians, 900 British regulars and militia at-
tacked Fort Meigs in Ohio, taking and killing pris-
oners but not winning the fort. Canadian allied
forces tried again in July, without success.
Lake Erie was the scene of many tensions. On
Sept. 10, the British feet faced of against the
American feet.
Te wind was more favourable to the Ameri-
cans and they blasted the British ship. Te British
surrendered. Tat was a key victory, Price says.
By the end of September, Procter was orga-
nizing a retreat of Fort Amherstburg. American
troops dogged the departing soldiers destined for
Burlington. Afer Tecumsehs moving speech ask-
ing the British to not abandon his warriors, the In-
dians helped cover the British retreat, fghting the
advancing Americans outnumbering the Canadian
side 3 to 1.
A game-changing confrontation occurred at
Moraviantown, where Americans killed or cap-
tured 600 British soldiers on Oct. 5, 1813. Te great
Chief Tecumseh was among the dead.
Te loss of Tecumseh meant Indian strength in
the war really went down, Price says.
Te Battle of the Tames gave the U.S. control of
southwestern Ontario for the remainder of the war.
Battles ensued. At the beginning of 1814,
America was going broke, says Price.
Both American and British soldiers sufering
deprivation crossed sides to get paid. Farmers in
the Canadian militia returned home to tend their
felds. Marching Americans burned Canadian
farms and crops, starving civilians and fghters.
Tat turned many people of American origin
back onto the British side, Price says.
Settling an old score, the British burned Wash-
ington and its White House on Aug. 24, 1814. Fol-
lowing battles indicated a stalemate.
On Christmas Eve, representatives of the British
and American governments signed the Treaty of
Ghent: Tere shall be a frm and universal peace
between His Britannic Majesty and the United
States, and between their respective countries, ter-
ritories, cities, towns, and people, of every degree,
without exception of places or persons. All hostili-
ties, both by sea and land, shall cease as soon as this
treaty shall have been ratifed by both parties.
War was fnally over.
Unfortunately, skirmishes continued till Feb-
ruary, when news of the peace treatys ratifcation
reached combatants in the feld. On Jan. 8, 1815,
the British attacked a much smaller contingent of
Americans, who repelled the invaders handily.
Tere the British got a drubbing, Price says.
Te last battle gave war-weary Americans new
confdence as a nation.
So who won the war?
One of the Americans major objectives was to
capture Canada, says Price. Te Americans didnt
win any territory and the British didnt win any ter-
ritory. Id say it was a draw.
British Governor General Prevost and Generals
Brock and Drummond all promised the First Na-
tions people they would get their American lands
back afer war was over. Te British were not able
to deliver on that one, Price says.
Te British never got a bufer state; the Ameri-
cans never got Canada. Te Indians were the los-
ers, he concludes.
It was not a seminal war in shaping the U.S. but
it was certainly a seminal war in shaping Canada,
he believes.
Before the war, there was not really a Canada.
Tere wasnt much visible diference between Ca-
nadians and Americans, politically or philosophi-
cally. Te war demarcated us from Americans and
began to give us a national consciousness.
An attitude of tolerance of diversity began to
emerge in Canada. Price refects, Our motto be-
came Peace, Order and Good Government. Teirs
was Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Over time, I think the Americans forgot about
the war. I think we cant forget because it was a stel-
lar moment in shaping our country.
It would be pleasant to think that conficts be-
tween the neighbouring countries ended in 1815
but that did not prove the case. Price refers to a dis-
pute regarding the border between British Colum-
bia and Oregon that was settled by treaty in 1846,
establishing the boundary at the 49
th
Parallel; and
the Americans delayed involvement in both World
Wars I and II.
In the modern era, We have problems all the
time about trade, Price adds.
Any serious historian is never going to say
there has been 200 years of unbroken peace on an
undefended border.

I had no idea of the history attached to places
I pass by regularly. Tats the common reaction of
people to local teacher and history enthusiast Dan
Loncke s guided walking tour of Olde Sandwich
Towne and the accompanying lecture series.
Te oldest continuously inhabited settlement east
of Montreal was a key area during the War of 1812.
Te Detroit River Frontier is home to some
signifcant events, says Loncke. Tere on July 12,
1812 was the frst time the United States invaded a
foreign country. Te frst casualties of the war oc-
curred there for the British at the River Canard
and for the Americans near Turkey Creek.
Tis was also where the frst looting and burn-
ing of private property took place. And August 16,
1812 marked a disastrous day in American history
when American territory, Detroit and Michigan
Territory, was surrendered to a foreign army.
Loncke tours are consistently sold out. Te frst
dates were held April 27-29 with an overfow date
of Sept. 21-22.
Te April 28 tour followed a Friday evening
lecture at Mackenzie Hall which emphasizes the
events of the summer of 1812 and autumn of 1813
that took place along the Upper Canadian shore of
the Detroit River.
Armed with information from the lecture, par-
ticipants take a short walk through historical Sand-
wich and have lunch in one of the houses that sur-
vived the War of 1812. Ten boarding a bus, they
visit the sites covered in the lecture from the east
side of Windsor to the south side of Amherstburg.
Learning about the major fgures of the War
of 1812, like Brock and Tecumseh, is fascinating,
but discovering the involvement of local places
and people in these nation-building events is won-
derful, Loncke says. Reading and hearing about
history cannot compete with the special feeling of
standing on the ground where important historical
events took place.
Private group tours are available for separate
bookings as well as the Sept. 21-22 dates. For more
information or to book a tour phone 519-255-7600.

Tecumseh Parkway
A tribute to a great warrior and lasting Cana-
dian hero stands along on a winding road in rural
Ontario. Its face is marred by signs of neglect, a
few incidences of vandalism, and it serves as a poi-
gnant reminder of heritage sites that have fallen by
the wayside.
Te current Tecumseh monument is situated
on Longwoods Rd just east of Tamesville. Te
dedicated volunteers working for the Tecumseh
re-development project, spearheaded by Friends of
the Tecumseh Monument, have worked tirelessly
to ensure that the legacy of the monument will be
transformed into a site worthy of its namesake.
Situated on the edge of the site of the Battle of
the Tames where Shawnee Chief Tecumseh was
killed in battle, the proposed area will be trans-
formed from the two small and easily missed mon-
uments standing there today to an open air mu-
seum which will encompass the whole eight-acre
site, and which will interpret the story of the Battle
of the Tames and its afermath, from the perspec-
tive of all of its participants and witnesses.
Te park plans to host a boat-shaped river look-
out, historical interpretation panels, a new monu-
ment to Tecumseh, as well as another to all the
participants. Tere will also be space for quiet re-
fection on the sacrifces made in the course of the
War of 1812 and the following 200 years of peace
between nations.
Te re-development is expected to cost approxi-
mately $4.2 million.
We are in full fundraising mode, says Lisa
Gilbert, chair of Friends of Tecumseh Monument.
We hope to see donors come forward who have a
real passion for the legacy of Chief Tecumseh, for
the invaluable participation of First Nations in the
War of 1812, and for keeping our local history vi-
brant for years to come.
Te committees fundraising platform ranges
from as little as $10 up to $100,000 and donors can
receive a myriad of benefts, ranging from tax re-
ceipts and certifcates of appreciation, to a wall of
sponsors at the monument site itself.
For more information on how to become a part
of this project, visit the committees newly launched
website, at tecumsehmonument.ca
Theres an app for that has become almost com-
mon prose amongst tech-savvy consumers that drive
todays popular culture. But it doesnt just apply to
present-day popular culture. Longstanding local history
is also benefting from technology.
The regions rich War of 1812 history has been
virtually transformed with the help of a group of history
buffs and technologically literate students of the
University of Western Ontarios Master of Arts program in
Public History. They have developed a smart phone app
for the war.
Digital media is the here and now for teaching and
learning about the past, says Dr. Michael Dove, acting
director at the schools department of history. The
smart phone app will make The War of 1812 accessible
to audiences like never before. It offers something
for everyone, from the casual tourist to the specialist
historian.
Dove, who has acted as a faculty supervisor for the
project, shows great pride in not only the quality of his
students work but also the way that this project has
strengthened the bond between the local community
and historical research.
This is a remarkable opportunity for our students
and for our MA Public History program at Western,
he says. Students have been able to practice history
outside of the classroom and thereby realize the aims of
public history; that is embracing community collabora-
tion, civic engagement, and reciprocal learning. Such
close working relationships between the university and
the extraordinary War of 1812 heritage community of
individuals and institutions in place across the south-
west region of Ontario provides a valuable model for
future partnerships.
The app follows Route 1812 and The Tecumseh
Parkway, historic driving routes throughout southwest
Ontario that show you the sites, stories and sounds
of the War of 1812. Mined from an extensive array of
archival materials, this smart phone app combines
thorough research and spectacular images, such as the
captivating paintings by Windsor artist Peter Rindlis-
bacher, to give people an in-depth sense of this chapter
of the War.
It not only enhances our understanding of those
more well-known 1812 sites and events, such as Am-
herstburg and The Battle of the Thames, but also sheds
much light on lesser-known stories from the war such
as the legendary heroine of Londons Reservoir Hill, Mrs.
McNames, the so-called Laura Secord of London.
The app has also beneftted from its connection to
the development of the Tecumseh Parkway, currently
running through the Chatham-Kent region and focusing
on Chathams historical 1812 connection. The parkway
has recently received several grants, including one from
the Heritage Canada 1812 fund and also the Ontario
Trillium Foundation for the development of Peace
Gardens along the parkway, which will be planted and
maintained by the Kent Military Re-Enactment Society.
The app will be launched early summer 2012 and
marks the offcial kick-off of the regions 1812 events.
The War of 1812 app is free and can be searched
or downloaded from QR codes on interpretive signage
along the route.
Artists renderings show the proposed new eight-acre site of
the Tecumseh Parkway, a $4.2-million project to be located
near the site where the great Shawnee Chief Tecumseh was
killed in The Battle of the Thames

Dr. Trevor Price holds
up a portrait of Chief
Tecumseh, the great
Shawnee chief and
subject of a book hes
writing.
- Windsor Star fle photo
By John Humphrey

Tecumseh, chief of the Shawnee and leader of
the Indian warriors in the War of 1812, played a
signifcant role before and during the historic con-
fict with the Americans.
Most historians think Tecumseh was born in
the spring of 1768 in a Shawnee village near what
is now Springfeld, Ohio. His father, Puckshinwa,
was killed at the Battle of Point Pleasant (in present
day West Virginia) in late 1774, during a brief war
between the Virginia militia and the Shawnee and
other Indian tribes.
Tecumseh and his mother, Methotaske, saw
Puckshinwa in his last moments of life. It would
leave a profound impact on Tecumseh for the rest
of his own life.
Tecumseh soon matured into a distinguished
warrior, eventually rising to become chief of the
Shawnee. His keen opposition to the Americans
was founded in his concern for his tribe as they con-
tinued to be pushed farther west by white settlers.
It is widely believed this is when Tecumseh be-
gan to participate in the Indian many raids against
whites on the frontier.
His ferce opposition to the expansion of Ameri-
can settlement was because it conficted with Te-
cumsehs simple yet profound way of thinking
when it came to Aboriginal life in North America.
He had the philosophy that the land belonged
to all of the Indians, says Dr. Trevor Price, Uni-
versity of Windsor professor emeritus and past
president of the Essex County Historical Society.
And he was speaking not just as the chief of the
Shawnee, but on behalf of all Indians.
Tecumseh was particularly against the Indians
selling their land to the Americans.
He believed that the Indians should control
their own destiny and rule themselves, adds Price,
whose book on Tecumsehs struggles and the on-
going fate of the North American Indians will be
published later this year.
He did not want his people to be ruled by the
Americans or British. Tecumseh believed that the
Indians had the right to develop their own way of
life and culture.
Te War of 1812 and the involvement of Indians
under the guidance of Tecumseh was clear in its
objective, according to Price.
Te American war aim was to absorb Canada and
the British war aim was to prevent that. Te British
were also fghting the Napoleonic War at that time,
Price points out, so they could aford to send a lim-
ited number of soldiers to North America.

At the outbreak of the war, the United States
population vastly outnumbered what was then Up-
per Canada (Ontario today). It looked like a mis-
match from the outset.
It was clear that the British had to align them-
selves with the Indians, says Price. What they
promised the Indians as a reward for their sup-
port was their own territory.
Tis would-be territory that the British were
promising was signifcant in size and there was a
large reason for its concept.
It was to be a bufer territory which was sup-
posed to border along the Great Lakes, and include
parts of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and possibly Il-
linois.
Tis plan was made by the British before there
was any settlement in the United States west of the
Mississippi River. Te Indians, under the leader-
ship of Tecumseh, realized that it better-suited
their own goals as a people to side with the British
as the American population was expanding and
they would have to fend of this expansion onto
their land.
Te British wanted a bufer state between their
own land in Upper and Lower Canada (now Que-
bec) which would be an Indian state in which
the Indians would rule themselves and no whites
would be allowed to settle.
Tis was the war promise made to the Indians
by the British, Price points out. It was brought up
in the negotiations of the Treaty of Ghent, which
concluded the War of 1812.
However, by the time the War of 1812 ended,
the British were tired and did not occupy much
land in America, so they did not have much to
bargain with when it came to creating the Indian
bufer state, Price adds.
Te Indians were included in the treaty and
the Americans agreed to respect where the Indians
lived and to not occupy their lands, but it was re-
ally an empty promise on both sides of the border,
Price claims. Bit by bit, Indian land was eventually
taken away.
While many historians consider Tecumsehs
involvement in the War of 1812 to be his greatest
accomplishment, that wasnt necessarily the case
according to Price.
Tecumsehs greatest achievement was actually
his attempt to create an Indian confederacy.
His frst major battle was at the Battle of Fallen
Timbers when the Indians fell apart and retreated
and it was felt that everything was lost, Price says.
From that point on it was Tecumsehs mission to
unite all Indians from the Gulf of Mexico up to the
Great Lakes to create an army that could fght the
Americans.
American General William Henry Harrison,
who was the Governor of the Indiana Territory,
emphatically informed Tecumseh that any native
battle against the Americans was futile at best due
to the sheer size of the American population.
Tecumseh realized that the Indians could not
do a lot against the American all by themselves,
says Price. Tey needed weapons, supplies of food
and they needed the alliance of the British so they
would be capable of attacking the fortifed posi-
tions of the Americans.
In 1810 Tecumseh visited Fort Malden and of-
fered his support to the British if the war that was
festering against the American should break out.
Tis relationship between the Indians and the
British was facilitated by British servicemen who
served as Indian agents.
While its army in Canada was signifcantly
smaller than that of the Americans, the British were
professional fghters while the American forces
were comprised primarily of a part-time militia.
Many American ofcers, like General Hull, were
Revolutionary War ofcers and were well past their
prime, according to Price.
Te British didnt have as many soldiers, but
their leadership people like General Isaac Brock
and General Drummond was spectacular, he
says. Tey could do a lot with a little.
Tecumseh enjoyed a well-earned stellar repu-
tation not only within the Indian nations and the
British, but even with the American enemy.
He wasnt vindictive and he wasnt vengeful,
says Price. He was renowned for his fair treatment
of everyone, and he did not believe in torturing en-
emy prisoners of war.
Tecumsehs relationship with General Brock
was based on mutual respect. Tey both recog-
nized each other as exceptional leaders. Te pair
worked together to formulate the plan to lay siege
to Fort Detroit.
Both Tecumseh and Brock understood the psy-
chology of war, Price says. Teir plan to capture
Detroit was absolutely brilliant.
Te Americans wanted no part of fghting the

Indians on the battlefeld, and elsewhere.
Te Americans didnt like the way the Indians
fought and they were scared of the Indians. Te
Indians did not engage in orthodox warfare. Tey
didnt line up and shoot volleys; they fought in the
woods and from behind rocks, Price says.
Te Indians also liked to ambush the enemy at
night.
Man-for-man, the Indians were much stronger
fghters than the Americans.
Tis was unless the Americans were in a for-
tifed position, Price says. Te Indians didnt
have ladders and artillery and they could not get
through the walls of a fort unless they received
these supplies from the British.
Te siege of Fort Detroit began on August 15,
1812 afer Hull refused to surrender and the British
started their artillery barrage. Inside Fort Detroit,
Hulls intense fear of coming under Indian attack
was realized when approximately 500 of Tecumsehs
alliance of warriors crossed the Detroit River in the
middle of the night and surrounded the fort.
On the morning of August 16, the Americans
realized that Tecumsehs warriors and 700 of
Brocks troops were advancing towards their posi-
tion. Tese movements by Tecumsehs warriors and
the British were supported from across the Detroit
River by British cannons and guns that were fring
a deadly stream of fre into Fort Detroit.
Te war cries of Tecumsehs warriors flled the
air and served to intensify the terror of Hull, who
soon surrendered without a fght.
However, Tecumsehs relationship with Brit-
ish General Henry Procter wasnt as congenial as
Procter wasnt always forthcoming and open with
the Indian leader.
Procter viewed the Indians, including Te-
cumseh, as inferior people, Price says. Procter
thought it was appropriate to use Indians during
opportune times, but he thought the Indians could
not be trusted or confded in.
Tecumsehs greatest feat was his attempt to unite
the various Indian nations, but that objective was
gradually undermined as the Americans, particu-
larly General Harrison, made clandestine deals
with individual chiefs to acquire Indian land piece
by piece.
Te Americans employed a divide-and-con-
quer strategy, Price says. Te Indians could be
bribed and bought.
Tis was particularly the case when it came to
older chiefs who had become weary of fghting the
Americans. Tecumsehs weakness was the reality that
while the warriors of the various Indian tribes sup-
ported him greatly, many of the older chiefs did not.
Even in his own tribe, there was a serious split.
If Tecumseh had been able to unite the Indians and
if the British had done better in the War of 1812,
the story of the Indians would have been much dif-
ferent not only back then but today.
Tese sentiments, coincidentally, provide the
foundation of Prices upcoming book.
Tecumseh was never elected chief of the Shaw-
nee nor was he appointed leader of the Indians by
the British. He was recognized by his fellow Indi-
ans because of his extraordinary abilities. He was
a tremendous fghter and could understand and
readily explain even the most intricate of situations
to his people.
Tecumseh was an amazing orator. He could
motivate and rouse the various Indian tribes in
their own native languages.
Afer the Americans defeated the British in the
naval Battle of Lake Erie, supplies were cut of to
Fort Malden and the British under Procter and
Indians made an ill-advised retreat before engag-
ing the American in the Battle of the Tames near
Moraviantown, where Tecumseh was killed in ac-
tion.
Tecumsehs body was never recovered or posi-
tively identifed, although stories have circulated
for two centuries that it was recovered by Indian
warriors and buried on Walpole Island or trans-
ported to Kentucky where it was never positively
identifed.
As a teenager Tecumseh was riding a horse and
it fipped him of and he broke his thigh-bone,
Price claimed. While it did heal, there would still
be evidence of that injury if his bones were found
today.
Tere has never been any such discovery.
It has long been the belief of Price and some
historians that Tecumsehs body was buried in a
common grave, along with bodies of other Indi-
ans, British and Americans from the Battle of the
Tames. Tat feld has long since been plowed over
by a farmer and while bones were discovered, no
positive of Tecumsehs body has ever been made.

War folklore has it that the Shawnee leader Tecum-
seh, one of the great military minds of all time accord-
ing to Stephen Marche writing in The Walrus magazine's
March issue, marched his men around and around Fort
Detroit August 16, 1812, making his force appear much
larger than it was. The ruse scared American Brigadier
General William Hull who liquored up and neglected
his troops leading to their desertion and the surrender
of the fort to the vastly outnumbered Canadians.
However, the Canadian Encyclopedia says the story
lacks real evidence. According to South West 1812s
website (www.1812
ontario.ca), this was
part of several ruses. The
troops lit individual fres
instead of one per unit,
again to give the illusion
of a much larger army,
and marched up to take
positions in plain sight
of the Americans then
quickly ducked behind
the entrenchments and
repeated the manoeuvre,
again to feign larger num-
bers. The troops pulled
the same trick by circling
meal lines.
Marche's pen is
particularly sharp in his
assessment of Hull.
Writing about his decision to cross the border from
Detroit and take the undefended settlement of Sandwich
July 12, 1812, he said the American leader made "one
of the most important pronouncements in Canadian
history" when he declared: "No white man found fghting
by the side of an Indian will be taken prisoner. Instant
destribution will be his lot."
The blunder, in Marche's estimation, backfred as
almost every Canadian militiaman and British regular
served alongside Aboriginal allies and resolved to fght
the Americans.
William Hull ineffectually assaulted a disparate
group of people, Marche wrote. He left behind a cohe-
sive, distinct Canadian community.

The great Shawnee leader Tecumseh is being hon-
oured with a variety of War of 1812 bicentennial events
this summer.
The area that is now the Town of Tecumseh did not
see as much action as many other local areas during the
War of 1812, but we have worked hard to come up with
events that will help our residents and other from across
the county celebrate its bicentennial, offers Kerri Rice,
manager of recreation programs and events for the town.
We have events that will appeal to our residents and visi-
tors to the region alike.
The offcial launch of a Canada Post stamp is perhaps
the biggest event that will be held in Tecumseh, while
other events include the launching of a musical CD about
the War of 1812, the opening of a garden and an interna-
tional road trip to a play about the native leader.
While the stamp honouring Tecumseh will actually
be released June 15, its offcial launch is being held at
the Tecumseh Area Historical Society June 21. Tecumseh
Mayor Garry McNamara and Canada Post offcials will
take part in the festivities.
We thought it was a wonderful idea to celebrate
National Aboriginal Day (June 21) by hosting the offcial
launch of the stamp honouring the great Shawnee leader
Tecumseh, Rice says. There couldnt be a better time or
place.
The Tecumseh stamp is actually part of a two-part set
being issued by Canada Post. British General Isaac Brock,
a staunch ally of Tecumseh, is also depicted. This two-
stamp issue shows profles of the two men face to face.
The Tecumseh stamp exhibits the Shawnee leader
with native encampments scattered around him, indicat-
ing that more than one tribe has taken to arms under his
command.
The rendering of the native leader was a challenge.
There are no known photos of Tecumseh in existence,
so we had to do our due diligence, offers Jim Phillips,
manager of stamp services for Canada Post. We con-
sulted with First Nations organizations and historians and
museums in both Canada and the United States and we
believe we have come up with the best likeness there has
ever been of him.
We have re-created Tecumseh.
The offcial release date of June 15 of the Tecumseh
and Brock stamps comes before a key anniversary date of
the War of 1812. The Americans declared war on the Brit-
ish on June 18 to start the confict, Phillips says.
Canada Post will be adding to its War of 1812 series
in 2013 with stamps honouring Charles de Salaberry and
Laura Secord.
The Tecumseh Area Historical Society is also holding an
event the opening of the 1812 Peace Garden at 12350
Tecumseh Road East . Its going to be a special day for the
societys volunteers, says Rice. A lot of time and effort has
gone into making a garden that is going to be enjoyed by
our residents and other visitors for years to come.
Tecumseh Town Council and its War of 1812 Commit-
tee will be leading an overnight bus trip on June 21 to the
birthplace of the Shawnee leader in Chillicothe, Ohio to
experience the spectacular outdoor drama, Tecumseh!
Showgoers attending the huge, outdoor stages of the
Sugarloaf Mountain Amphitheatre will be treated to a
unique viewing experience that includes a herd of gallop-
ing horses and live military cannons in action.
The Windsor Regional Writers Group also performed
Refections on 1812, an original music tribute to the War
of 1812 at lEssor in May.

Chantal Kreviazuk excuses herself to answer the
front door. Te postman is standing on the doorstep
with package in hand, slowly attempting to read the
foreign last name on the packing slip.
Package for Kra-zuh-zook?
Oh my God, Kreviazuk whispers, giggling, into
the phone. Im always curious to see how theyll try
to say my name. Ive never heard that one before.
Tis is Chantal Kreviazuk. Unafected, unpreten-
tious, and despite the halo of dark hair framing an
almost ethereally beautiful face, perhaps even some-
what ordinary.
But Kreviazuk is far from ordinary. Hers is a voice
that has found a place on radio, on stages around
the world, and screens big and small. Her music has
appeared in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Confes-
sions of a Shopaholic, Dawsons Creek, Serendipity
and perhaps most famously, Armageddon, in which
she performed a cover of John Denvers Leaving on
a Jet Plane.
Tis summer, that face, and that voice, will be
ours for an evening when Kreviazuk performs at the
Roots to Boots Festivals Fort Malden Rocks concert.
Born in Winnipeg, Kreviazuks musical talents
were revealed early. At age three, she began to play
the piano by ear. Her mother, Carol, eagerly en-
couraged young Chantal.
At age 19, Kreviazuks world came crashing
down when she was involved in a serious automo-
bile accident in Italy in 1994. Te young musicians
jaw was shattered. With four plates and 16 screws to
help rebuild her face, doctors questioned whether
or not Kreviazuk would ever be able to sing again.
My mother was furious, she recalls during a re-
cent phone interview from her home in Los Ange-
les. She said, Of course shes going to sing again!
Whether it was her mothers support or her own
steel will, Kreviazuk defed all odds and would in-
deed sing again. In 1996, a mere two years afer the
accident that nearly claimed her life, she was signed
to Sony Canada. Her critically acclaimed debut al-
bum, Under Tese Rocks and Stones, was released
later that year. Her second single, Surrounded, a
heart-wrenching mid-tempo ballad about the sui-
cide of someone she calls her dear, dear friend
catapulted Kreviazuk to stardom.
Today, with husband and Our Lady Peace lead
singer Raine Maida away on tour, and all three kids
out of the home, Kreviazuks day will be dedicated to
working on her next album, an experience she ad-
mits is completely diferent from previous practice.
Im writing it at home with earphones, at the
piano. Tere are no tricks, no infuence by anything
or anyone. Im getting in the zone, and Im like,
Here you are. Let it happen. Dont be so precious.
While Kreviazuk admits that she still sometimes
seeks Maidas advice and opinion, this is a journey
shes taking joyfully albeit fearfully on her own.
When youre writing, sometimes things get
pretty complicated pretty fast. Tis is a huge exer-
cise in discipline for me. Teres something so scary

Historic sites, an important ship building port along
the waterfront and Fort Malden National Historic Site.
Places that stand the time to commemorate a
period when the destiny of Canada was determined by
the War of 1812.
Amherstburg, the centre of many fronts, strategies
and alliances, was instrumental in defending Canadian
territory during the War of 1812. The town was the
headquarters of the Right Division of the British Army
during that important time period. All military and naval
actions of the war in the Detroit River Region were
administered from Fort Amherstburg, later known as Fort
Malden.
Because it was the military base for the region,
Amherstburg may claim participation in virtually all the
conficts that occurred in this area. The town may also
claim two great leaders of the War of 1812: Brock and
Tecumseh.
On August 13, 1812 Major-General Isaac Brock
took command of Amherstburg. The famous meeting of
General Brock and Chief Tecumseh took place at Mat-
thew Elliotts just below Amherstburg and an Anglo/First
Nations Alliance was made.
Today, the Kings Navy Yard Parks 10.5 acres is a
footprint of the prior Navy Yard dating 1796. This site
was responsible for the construction of several Provin-
cial War Ships that fought in the War of 1812.
Its part of waterfront property that is rich in his-
tory and superb, award-winning gardens. It has been
recognized as a Bicentennial Art of Peace Garden. It
honours those who have fallen in war, recognize the
importance of the land as a naval yard, commemorate
the battles fought in the area and cherishes the peace
that resulted from those efforts.
Signifcant water crafts built in Kings Navy Yard in-
clude: the Camden, General Hope, General Hunter, Fran-
cis, Maria, Queen Charlotte Queen, Lady Prevost, Detroit,
Eliza and the General Myers. The riverfront property was
also used for rope making. At times sailors would span
the entire town for stretching and producing the rope,
often referring to the process as the sympathetic rope
walk.
Over 200 years
old, Amherstburg is
one of the oldest and
prettiest communities
in Ontario. Steeped
in rich history with a
fascinating past, the
events that took place
along the shoreline at
the mouth of Lake Erie
were pivotal in shaping
the destiny of Canada
as we know it today - a
free country with the
privilege of sharing the
longest undefended
border with the United
States of America.
This summer, Am-
herstburg celebrates its
Roots to Boots Bicen-
tennial Festival August
3-5. It promises visitors
will be immersed in
history in a charming
town thats proud to share its commemoration of the
War of 1812.

and let the fear in.
If Kreviazuk sounds spiritual, its because she
is. Its a personality trait she attributes to her native
heritage. Her great-grandmother was of aboriginal
background. She was described in an 1870 census as
a half-breed, a term a librarian once assured Kre-
viazuk meant Metis. Te singers roots actually go
further back; her Cree ancestry worked the fur trade
at the beginning of the Hudsons Bay Company.
We knew we were native, but it was such a
bizarre layer, says Kreviazuk, whose background
makes her a perfect ft for the concert celebrating
the War of 1812, an epic battle that involved an
important coalition between British soldiers and
native allies.
We had a very ambiguous consciousness to it.
It was very matter of fact, she says.
Im eastern European and native sometimes
I get so fred up, but then I also have this extremely
tree-hugging, granola, spiritual side to me, one
that gets all these wild energetic experiences, she
explains. Ive discovered its such a strong energy,
having native blood.
At this point in the interview, a little voice sings
in the background, greeting his mother with glee af-
ter only an hour apart. Kreviazuks youngest, three-
year-old Salvador, has returned home with her assis-
tant from a trip to the vet, where their beloved Small
Munsterlander has been examined for allergies.
We needed a hypoallergenic breed because of
Raines allergies, Kreviazuk says, giggling. Go fg-
ure its the dog with allergies. Poor thing.
Teres so much, isnt there? Kreviazuk sighs;
her tone is serious. Its unclear yet whether shes
still referring to her pets ordeal, or if shes mulling
over something deeper.
As a parent, if you havent seen something, you
go, Oh my God. My greatest frustration is that Im
doing so much that Im not fabulous at one thing. I
can be a better performer, mother, writer, wife.
So says the prolifc songwriter, Juno nominee
and Garnier spokesperson.
But I count my blessings, says Kreviazuk, ever
modest and clearly aware of her good fortune. Im
the luckiest girl in the world. I have a great hus-
band, which is number one your partner is your
healer, and in some ways, your child. Raine and I
recognize areas in which we can grow, and we push
each other to grow, and I am so grateful for that.
Who says one cant be rooted and fy all at once?
Kreviazuk a model to all mothers, songwriters,
and dreamers everywhere proves every day that
that is, indeed, possible.

Spirit of a Nation
By Anna Cabrera Cristofaro

Several months ago, local director John Nab-
ben was approached by Anne Rota, Amherstburgs
manager of tourism and culture, for a once-in-a-
lifetime opportunity.
Anne felt there was an opportunity to show-
case Amherstburg and the history related to the
War of 1812 through an unconventional way a
theatrical performance, says Nabben. Ofen for
these kinds of events, you see sculptures or an im-
portant piece, like a painting.
But what she wanted was a production that
would open up the bicentennial festivities, one
that would be specifc to the history relating to
Fort Malden, Amherstburg, and that entire area.
Nabben, who recently directed Walkerville Cen-
tre for the Creative Arts Phantom of the Opera,
excitedly embraced the idea. He gathered together
a team, including co-writer John Conlon, scenic
and visual artist Lorraine Zonjic and orchestrator
Ian Smith, for a brainstorming event. Although
the groups members have extensive experience in
local theatre, this kind of production one that
would have to be historically accurate, and which
would have to be written, scored and orchestrated
from scratch was new to them.
We met and wondered, How does something
like this work? remembers Nabben. How do you
go about putting together a musical production on
content like this?
Te group met over a gruelling six days. With
only a few but frm instructions from Rota, in-
cluding the direction that the show had to be per-
formed outside on Fort Malden grounds, Nabben
and his team decided not to stress over the his-
torical elements, like Chief Tecumseh standing in
this spot and saying these three words, that kind of
thing, Nabben explains.
We wanted, instead, to play on the idea of what
took place that there was a militia that formed,
and everyone worked together to ensure their land
was protected.
What we realized was that were looking for a
Canadian version of Les Miserables, says Nabben.
It has to be powerful, it has to speak to the people,
and it cant be one of those shows where some guy
just gets up and says, Hi, Im General Brock, or
Hi, Im Chief Tecumseh.
In two hours, you cannot provide a factual por-
trayal. But what you can do is capture themes that
will captivate a general audience. We wanted to get
away from those names and faces attached to the
War of 1812 and instead focus on the backstories.
With an anthem and a general theme re-ap-
pearing throughout the score, the group had to
next decide on a name.
Te government is using 1812 to identify our
nation, says Nabben. Although its a war brimming
with controversy some of our American friends
might claim it never even happened it cer-
tainly defned us. And its an opportunity to-
day to explore diferent cultures, because were
dealing with French, British, American and
native history and all those stories are nicely
rooted in this big moment.
Tat translates well to a modern audience, and
that helped us get to the name. We called it Spirit
of a Nation. Te word spirit speaks to the old, the
ghosts, the history but it also speaks to whats
inside you. Te goals, the dreams, the energy, the
passion that everyone can relate to.
When it came to the songs, the composers de-
cided to use solemn, Celtic sounds and utilized
drums throughout the orchestration to pay hom-
age to the both our military and native heroes.
And the book, which Nabben and his team co-
wrote, contains very female-centered themes, be-
cause their stories ofen arent told, says Nabben,
who consulted with War of 1812 experts to really
understand the characters he was creating.
We never want to neglect the fact that women
too were on the front line, fghting diferent wars.
Besides Laura Secord, we havent spent enough
energy providing them with a voice.
Te show, which will open the War of 1812
festivities in Amherstburg this summer, will
be performed entirely by students, a decision
Nabben says was well thought out.
Students are not only ambitious and resil-
ient, theyre learning this stuf every day. Who
better to bring the textbook to life?
Nabben admits nerves are high.
Tis is not a musical were writing for the
fun for it, or for entertainments sake, or some
social statement we want to make, he says.
Tis is for a society, a community, an entire
province to watch. Tis is for all of us to relate
to a part of our heritage. Its what made our
country what it is today.
Tis musical, he continues, has to cap-
ture the emotion and the spirit and the feeling
of that time costumes and set and music. For
everyone involved, from the writers to the ac-
tors to the audience members, it becomes part
of a personal journey.
Spirit of the Nation will premiere Friday, Aug.
3 at 7:30 p.m. at Amherstburgs Roots to Boots
festival. Visit amherstburg1812.com for details.
"Tis is for a society, a community,
an entire province to watch."

In Pursuit of the Golden Key
By Anna Cabrera Cristofaro
When was the last time you were ofered $10,000 for solving a
riddle?
In Pursuit of the Golden Key, written by Amherstburg-based artist
Dennis White and co-illustrated by Steve Gibb, is the story of a forbid-
den love afair between a native princess and a young Scottish immigrant,
set during the War of 1812. While the love afair is fctional, the events
are based on fact.
And while the story in itself is captivating, theres something else that
makes the book so engaging. Its also a story rife with clues and puzzle
pieces, all of which lead the reader to real-life treasure: a golden key and
a cash prize of $10,000.
Te response to the book, which was quietly released in March 2012 to
the Gibson Gallery, Mudpuppy Gallery, the tourist information centre in
Amherstburg and Chapters in Windsor, has been tremendous, says Gibb.
Te plan had been to have it ready for the events of the summer, says
Gibb. But its already gaining attention.
In early March, the original artwork that appears in the book was ex-
hibited at the Gibson Gallery; Bonnie Deslippe, a member of the gallerys
board of directors, says the response was overwhelming.
It was a particularly interesting exhibit for us, because you not only
had art enthusiasts, you had families, you had 1812 afcionados. We had
people there who were interested in the art aspect. We had people there
who were interested in the treasure aspect, she says.
Typically, if a person really is enjoying an exhibit, he or she will stay
an hour, at most. For this exhibit, weve had people spend hours, an entire
afernoon, Deslippe adds. Tat speaks to how signifcant this work is.
Inspired by a British treasure hunt book written in the 1970s, White
frst developed the idea to write a book about the War of 1812. At frst, his
main focus was to simply draw attention and visitors to the town of
Amherstburg.
I wanted folks to actually come here, to see the town, to see where sol-
diers fell, where we won what was an astoundingly important war, explains
White, whose original idea was that to solve the riddle, one had to physical-
ly visit the town of Amherstburg and scour its streets and landscapes. But
then I thought, I dont want to exclude anyone who cant come to town.
Adds Gibb: You can certainly come to Amherstburg and look for the
clues in person. But you can solve the riddle even if youre sitting in an arm
chair in Japan.

In the months leading up to the War of 1812,
artist Catherine Reynolds depicted a calm, orderly
world. Her surviving paintings reveal charming
views of the countryside and faithful representa-
tions of European paintings copied from books.
Judging by her art, the member of a powerful mili-
tary family was seemingly untroubled by mount-
ing hostilities.
Te imperturbability of the gentile outward ap-
pearance that Catherine presented in her paintings
belies the true woman behind the faade a pretty
screen that also concealed her elder sister, Mar-
garet. For both sisters were artists of such signif-
cance that their combined works are now in the Art
Gallery of Windsor, the Detroit Institute of Arts,
Fort Malden, McCord Museum at McGill Univer-
sity, Hiram Walker Historical Museum Windsor
Community Museum and private collections.
All the paintings were originally attributed to
Catherine but as scholarship goes on, it is evident
Margaret also painted, says Robert Honor, a for-
mer interpreter at Fort Malden.
Approximately 15 years ago, A View of Am-
herstburg, 1813 was cleaned, bringing to light the
true artist. You can see Margarets signature very
clearly.

It is a story worthy of Jane Austens pen.
Synopsis: Margaret, the elder Miss Reynolds, and her
sister, Miss Catherine, are the daughters of British Army
ofcer Tomas Reynolds of Scotland.
Along with their brothers, the Misses Reynolds live frst
in Fort Detroit in what was then part of Upper Canada,
until 1796, afer Britain surrenders Detroit to the Ameri-
can government and moves the British garrison to Fort
Amherstburg (Malden) on the Canadian side of the De-
troit River. Tomas is Commissary for Fort Amherstburg;
his son, Robert, eventually takes over, becoming Deputy
Assistant Commissary General to the British troops dur-
ing the War of 1812.
Troughout the years of political strife and military
action, the two spinster sisters quietly observe and paint
within their close family circle.

architect, designing a magnifcent local church as
well as a dignifed Amherstburg residence that out-
shone any other in Canada at that time.
How could such accomplishments go unno-
ticed? In the late 1700s and early 1800s, gently bred
young ladies of British lineage would be educated in
womanly subjects such as French, music and dance
and encouraged to attain profciency as a pleasing
singer or a player on the pianoforte. Te young lady
might take up painting and fower arranging. She
was not to earn her living by her talent nor push
herself forward in a vulgar grasping for fame. Her
modest abilities were to amuse her friends and add
refnement to the family establishment.
Like Jane Austen, born in 1775 in England, this
was the style of society in which Margaret and
Catherine Reynolds lived, for the niceties were
observed even in the rough and ready settlement
straddling the Detroit River. Margaret was born in
Scotland in 1765 and with her family, journeyed to
Upper Canada. Likely in 1782, Catherine was born
in British-occupied Detroit, making her probably
the frst woman native born painter, says Honor.
Te Reynolds enjoyed more stability than most
military families. Tomas staf position meant he
didnt come and go with the infantry, Honor notes.
Rather than following the drum, the Reynolds
settled down to an upper class lifestyle, expanding
their wealth with fur trading on the side. Eventu-
ally, through marriage, the Reynolds became con-
nected with the illustrious, prosperous McGills of
Montreal.
Te Reynolds family didnt get married a lot
or if they did, they didnt have many kids or the
kids didnt live long, Honor says. Of Roberts fve
children, only one survived to adulthood.
Unencumbered by husbands and children of
their own, Catherine and Margaret pursued their
interests.
It appears both of them were painting, Honor
says.
Neither was artistically trained. Whereas a
young man of means with artistic leanings would
do a grand tour of Europe, the Reynolds sisters
never seemed to go anywhere.
Instead, they borrowed books from other of-
fcers and neighbours in community, furnishing
Catherine in particular with an appreciation for
classic paintings and architecture.
R. Alan Douglas, author of Uppermost Cana-
da: the Western District and the Detroit Frontier,
1800-1850, notes: To the ofcer class, the mili-
tary life was good. It was comparatively easy....
and its social events provided opportunities for
firtations not easily available to others. Teaching
topographical sketching and perspective drawing,
for example, part of young ofcers training, must
have been seen as a way to the hearts of Margaret
and Catherine, the eligible daughters of Tomas
Reynolds....Such courting campaigns might well
have given rise to the surviving body of ink-and-
wash drawings of European architectural subjects
rendered in one-point perspective, as well as views
of Amherstburg.
Working in watercolours, pencil, crayon and
sepia wash, the Reynolds sisters captured glimpses
of society along the Detroit River and Lake Eries
North Shore.
During the momentous year of 1812, the easy
life of the British ofcers was no more. Te Reyn-
olds sisters would have managed the family home
while Robert oversaw colossal arrangements for
feeding and equipping British infantryman arriv-
ing at Fort Amherstburg. Tat same year, across
the pond, Jane Austen prepared and sold Pride &
Prejudice for publication while worrying about the
safety of her brothers Francis and Charles, serv-
ing in the British Royal Navy. (Francis eventually
became the Commander in Chief of Te North
American and West Indian feet, giving him expe-
rience of Americans. He believed the women fip-
pant and lacking his sister Janes culture).
In September 1813, the British Royal Navy was
defeated by the United States Navy on Lake Erie.
With their cannons lost and supply lines cut, the
British burned their own fort in Amherstburg and
retreated to Burlington. Tere, Catherine found
another subject, painting Chief Joseph Brants
House, Burlington.
Afer the war was over in July 1815, the British
army, including the Reynolds, returned to Amher-
stburg to rebuild.
Te whole area is devastated by war, Honor
says. Te Reynolds are pouring money into the
community and are showing tremendous opti-
mism.

Te frst major indication of the Reynolds con-
fdence in the region was the building of Bellevue,
Roberts impressive white villa on eight acres at
the edge of the Detroit River. A surviving pen and
pencil rendering of the Bellevues front elevation is
signed by Catherine. It is not a sketch of the actual
house drawn afer construction. Its a design of
what the house should be, Honor says.
In the tradition of the manor houses that Cath-
erine copied from books, Bellevue is a classic Pal-
ladian villa, something youd see in the country in
Ireland or England, Honor observes. It fts that if
she was designing this house for her family, this is
the style shed pick up on.
Constructed between 1816 and 1819 in a grove
of mature pine trees, Bellevue was a marvel to be-
hold. It was the most prominent residence in Upper
Canada. Tere was nothing in Toronto to match it.
During this happy episode, the Reynolds fam-
ily were likely unafected by the death of an anony-
mous English novelist in 1817; Jane Austens iden-
tity was revealed by her brother posthumously.
Robert opened his home to Catherine and Mar-
garet. Eventually, their brother Ebenezer moved in.
His own Colchester residence, Stowe, was also cap-
tured on Catherines canvas.
Another of Catherines possible creations is
Christ Church in Amherstburg. Robert provided
brick for its construction, perhaps building mate-
rials lef over from Bellevue. In the classic propor-
tions and Palladian features, the suggestion would
be Catherine probably had a hand in the design of
the church as well, Honor says.
She and Robert were buried there, not far from
their beloved Bellevue, afer their deaths in 1864 and
1865. Te frst woman architect in Canada was rec-
ognized in 1927, Honor says. In Catherine Reyn-
olds, here is a woman who designed a signifcant
house in 1816. She was way ahead of her time.
Bellevue still stands today. Since the Reynolds
reign, the residence has served as a private home,
a veterans hospital and a church. Since 2001, it has
been owned by a numbered corporation. Although
declared a National Historic Site in 1959, the grand
dame is sadly neglected and deteriorating.
Interest in the artwork of the Misses Reynolds
has increased with 1812 commemorations. From
July 30 to September 2, the Art Gallery of Windsors
exhibit, Two Womens Views of the War of 1812,
will show selected artworks of Catherine Reynolds
and 20
th
century artist Joyce Wieland.
FG
Perhaps Margaret and Catherine would have
empathized with Jane Austen, concealing her cre-
ative abilities from anyone outside the family. It ap-
pears, at least, the Misses Reynolds shared the good
fortune of Miss Austen in having brothers who val-
ued their talent.

By Claudio DAndrea
Peter Rindlisbacher, an Amherstburg resident
and marine artist considered a genius by one
leading historian and the best in his craf by an-
other, has been painting battle scenes since the late
1980s in a relatively quiet, solitary way.
With the War of 1812 bicentennial, however,
interest in his work has exploded.
I felt like a cockroach working in the dark and
all of a sudden someone fipped on a light, he says.
Rindlisbacher, whose work has been used on
numerous magazine and book covers and in video
footage and art exhibitions, is especially busy re-
cently and not just because of his art. Ironically,
just as bicentennial celebrations start to roll out,
Rindlisbacher and his wife Ellen are busy relocat-
ing to the Houston, Texas area. Ellen, an informa-
tion technology specialist, will be starting a new
job at BP Global and the couple will be moving
sometime in June or July, just ahead of the largest
bicentennial events in their hometown.
Rindlisbacher, sitting at the kitchen table of his
home, an 1888 dairy farm located at Malden Cen-
tre with a For Sale sign out front, says the move is
bittersweet. With advances in digital technology,
the help of family back home and a network of
people across North America, he will be able to
capture battle scenes on canvas (and, increasingly,
on the computer screen using Photoshop). But
Rindlisbacher says he and his wife will miss their
home and the community that he grew up in.
He will also miss a lot of the hoopla of the bi-
centennial events. Rindlisbacher plans to be at
Gibson Gallery for the opening of an exhibit of
his 1812-era paintings in June but will miss a lot
of the action that follows, probably including the
big Roots to Boots festival in August. He also will
likely miss Windsors Capture of Detroit, a festival
that he helped organize.
Ill be here in spirit if not in person, he says.
Rindlisbacher started his marine art in 1988,
doing most pieces on commission while earning
his masters and doctorate in clinical psychology at
Queens University in Kingston. He started paint-
ing turn-of-the-century steamers and then started
doing War of 1812 battle scenes about 120 so far.
Tis is a case of a hobby just taking over.
Rindlisbacher says there have been very few
artists who have portrayed War of 1812 battles,
and many of their works have been inaccurate. His
work, by contrast, is renowned for the painstaking
research and meticulous accuracy of its details.
Historians who have worked with him on books
and other projects appreciate that quality.
Apparently, one of the hallmarks of genius is an
infnite capacity for taking pains. If that is so, then
Peter is a genius as he takes infnite pains in ensur-
ing that his work is [as] accurate as possible, writes
Donald E. Graves who has penned fve books with
Rindlisbacher covers, including two with original
sketches and black and white paintings inside.
Graves, whom the Times Literary Supplement
once noted is probably Canadas foremost military
historian, says Rindlisbachers painting of a line of
British infantry used on the cover of his 2010 book
Dragon Rampant is a good example of his histori-
cal accuracy. Te painting was based on input of
six historical experts on Napoleonic period British
uniforms and drill as well as those who had visited
the ground over which that battle was fought. (A
slightly diferent version of that scene was used on
the cover of Sandy Antals 2011 book Invasions,
about the taking of Detroit.)
Calling Rindlisbacher one of the most gener-
ous, professional and conscientious persons I have
ever met, Graves praises his even temper a rare
thing in artists and authors during the 15 years
he has worked with him.
Peter Rindlisbacher shows some prints of War of 1812
naval battles that are in his portfolio.

He is actually one of Canadas unsung treasures
and I am very glad that his fne body of historical
artwork will be highlighted during the forthcom-
ing Bicentennial, as well it should be.
Rindlisbacher says he has been interested in
marine art from way back, being a boat nut and
especially loves the research that goes into one of
his paintings, the kind of crack researcher role
that he took on in grad school.
I really enjoy the detective aspect of the job.
He adds historians can be scrupulous about
accuracy. For instance, in one painting showing a
line of redcoats someone pointed out the subjects
shoulders were 18 inches apart instead of 16, send-
ing him back to his easel.
Te fnal result was absolutely dead nuts on.
In another painting, he had almost fnished a
scene of a British squadron on Lake Erie with a
beautiful sunset when someone called and told
him those ships lef at noon. I threw it in the clos-
et in a rage and started from scratch.
Rindlisbacher, who used to be a sailing instruc-
tor, applies his knowledge of wind and wave action
to his work. He also uses a variety of other meth-
ods modern and otherwise to achieve pinpoint
accuracy. For instance, he has used Google Earth
mapping to learn about topographical elements in
one scene on Georgian Bay. In the image used on
Graves book, he used an action fgure doll in red-
coat as a model for one fgure and posed himself
for the soldier who was just shot.
James E. Elliotts 2009 book Strange Fatality
uses Rindlisbachers dramatic night-time image of
the 1813 Battle of Stoney Creek on the cover. He
says the artists branching out into fgurative work
and methods like Photoshop shows how he has
been able to stretch his talents.
But he is careful to point out that Rindlisbacher
doesnt use technology as a crutch for his art. He
knows his craf inside out, Elliott says. He can
paint. He can fat-out paint.
Te author says he marvels at Rindlisbachers
marine art and jokes that the artist must have been
on the deck of the ships he has painted, so realistic
are the details. Hes, quite simply, the best at what
he does, Elliott raves. Teres nobody in his class
given where he works in this narrow time period.
Gravess favourite Rindlisbacher story involves
the cover of his 1999 book Field of Glory. A dif-
fcult project, the writer and historian says he sent
his fnal manuscript to the publisher except for the
cover art which Rindlisbacher assured was in the
fnal stage. Graves was enjoying a glass of whisky
and quietly celebrating when his phone rang.
It was Peter who informed me in grave tones
that his three-year-old daughter had entered his
studio where the cover painting was drying on
the easel and, intrigued by the colours, had done
additional work on it with her grubby little paws,
Graves recalls. My frst question was whether the
child was still alive and Peter, assuring me that she
was but had been severely admonished, told me
that he thought he could save the painting if he
worked through the night.
He did, the book was published and that paint-
ing today adorns the front parlour of a restored
late 1790s house along with another example of
Peters cover art.

Americans in the War of 1812. Opposite: another one of his creations shows a deckhand dressed in a plain tunic.
- Ed Goodfellow: Special to The Star
By Anna Cabrera Cristofaro
Many years ago, Mark Williams drove to Fort
Malden during a re-enactment event and began to
sketch the scenes playing out before him.
I discovered a great appreciation for it, says
the local artist and sculptor.
At the time of that frst visit, he had no idea that
one day he would be creating life-size sculptures of
the very scenes he was drawing.
I had all these ideas in my head of what I could
create out of these sketches, including an idea of
Brock and Tecumseh on horseback, looking out
and anticipating the great raid. Te trouble with
being an artist, he says with a chuckle, is some-
times your imagination works faster than your
hands can.
An only child, Williams grew up in a kids
paradise in Windsor, a home that sat beside an
orchard.
Back in the day you had no video games and
you werent glued to the television, he explains.
As an only child, I needed to fnd means to enter-
tain myself. So I created. And I just kept creating.
Williams worked for Ford Motor Company for
28 years and was in-house artist for the last decade.
It was at Ford that Williams discovered his love of
history studying the automotive company and its
impact on the community inspired him to start
digging in the archives at Ford.
I learned so much what Fords presence was
like at the waterfront, how they used to dictate how
people lived and treated their properties. I guess
that was my frst taste of how interesting our local
history is. Its intriguing, its exciting, and its worth
studying.
While at Ford, Williams and his wife Laura
founded Imagine Tat! Laser Art Products. Tey
create bronze sculptures and small hand-sculpted
awards for various organizations.
In recent years, Williams, inspired by his father
with whom he shares a love for trains, added laser-
cut wood buildings for hobby train layouts to his
repertoire. Business boomed over the years. One of
his regular customers is rock star, and fellow hob-
byist, Rod Stewart who had heard about Williams
one day and ordered a kit.
Two years ago, in preparation for the War of 1812
celebration, the town of Amherstburg approached
historical artist Peter Rindlisbacher and Williams
to design and erect bronze installations that would
stand permanently in Amherstburgs Navy Yard
Park. Williams, whose specialty as a sculptor is in
life-size bronze, did not hesitate to accept the towns
proposal, and quickly went to work.
He knew the project would be massive. Re-
enactors were dressed and posed for the initial
sketches; a canon was set up as if fring in battle.
Williams used two-by-fours, Styrofoam and clay
in the beginning stages of his pieces. Afer all the
preliminary work was completed, the sculptures
were then sent to the U.S., where the bronze was

ABOUT THE SCULPTURES
These sculptures are supposed to represent the
movements, the motions of our soldiers who were ac-
tive in battle, explains artist Mark Williams.
One of the sculptures, dressed in a plain tunic
and pants, and wearing no shoes, is a model of
deckhand. The deckhand is portrayed stuffng a
cannon; beside him is an offcer of a higher rank.
Williams explains that during this tedious and
tiresome stage of preparation, the higher ranked
offcer had to place his thumb on the breach
a half-inch hole close to where the cannon
is packed or else oxygen would have found
its way inside the cannon, and the deckhand
would have had his arm blown off.
This was dangerous and diffcult work,
Williams says. They defnitely looked rough, very
motley crew. But they obviously knew what they
were doing after all, they won the war.
While there has been no offcial announcement
on the addition of more sculptures, Williams says he
hopes there will be at least another two that will stand
alongside these frst installations.

Tese pieces became a lesson in history even
before they set foot in Amherstburg, says Wil-
liams, who recalls having a conversation with an
American customs ofcer at the border. Te of-
cer asked me what these things were, and I told him
they were sculptures of Canadian soldiers from the
war of 1812. He asked me, What war was that?
I told him, Its the war your guys and our guys
were in, and the one that we won.

Restoration Work
eviving istory
R
Historic buildings undergoing extensive work
By John Humphrey

Two local buildings with signifcant historical
signifcance are being restored in time for War of
1812 bicentennial celebrations in Amherstburg.
Hough House, situated on the grounds of Fort
Malden National Historic Site, has undergone ex-
tensive renovations while the Bois Blanc (Boblo)
block house is in the process of being completely
rebuilt.
Both edifces have tremendous links to the areas
rich history and the upgrades will give local resi-
dents and visitors to the area a window to the past
for generations to come.
Hough House
Used today as an administrative and interpre-
tative centre for Fort Malden, Hough House has a
colourful history, with an architectural importance
dating back to its original construction as a com-
bined laundry and bakery in 1861-62. It was reno-
vated into a residence in 1920 and alterations to
the building included removal of chimneys and the
sunroom balustrade. Te property was purchased
by the federal government in 1946. Today Parks
Canada is the custodian of the facility.
Hough House is a recognized fed-
eral heritage building because of its
historical associations, and its architectural and
environmental value, says Cari-Lyn Hawksworth,
site manager at Fort Malden.
Constructed in 1861-1862 in a utilitarian fash-
ion, it was redesigned in 1920 in a Colonial Revival
style. Te house imitates the popular English Co-
lonial architecture of estates built in the 1920s, and
its domestic scale and centre hall plan demonstrate
a good functional design.
Quality construction and workmanship also
characterize the building as seen in the masonry
work and wood detailing.
Te historic property also continues to have
considerable environmental value, Hawksworth
adds.
Hough House is compatible with its park-like
landscape setting at Fort Malden National Historic
Site and is well-known to staf and visitors.
Hough House recently completed renovations
and restoration, just in time for the facility to play a
role in War of 1812 bicentennial celebrations.
Te federal government, through its Infrastruc-
ture Stimulus Fund, gave $352,000 to Fort Malden
NHS with an aim of enhancing the experience of
visitors.
Hough House was redesigned with new ex-
hibit cases housing several original artifacts, says
Hawksworth. Hardwood foors were refnished
and existing windows exposed to create a welcom-
ing and authentic experience for visitors.
Today the interpretation centre in Hough House
houses artifacts related to the War of 1812 and Re-
bellion of 1837-38 in addition to a First Nations
Exhibit related to Chief Tecumseh with text trans-
lated in English, French and Nishnaabemowin (a
dialect spoken by First Nations). In addition to a
childrens activity room and an ofcers bedroom
display, there is also a gallery that vividly illustrates
the relationship of Fort Malden and the Town of
Amherstburg.
Te interpretation centre known as Hough
House is open during during Fort Maldens
operating season, May 1 to October 31.
Fort Malden NHS invites visitors to come out and
participate in War of 1812 bicentennial celebra-
tions. Highlights over the course of the summer
include Canada Day (July 1), Parks Day (July 21)
Military Heritage Days (August 4- 5) and Fab Forts
weekend (August 17-19).
Visitors will be inspired by captivating War of
1812 stories, says Hawksworth. Interactive pro-
grams will capture the imagination, engage the
senses and inspire discovery.

Bois Blanc Blockhouse
Te transformation of the Bois Blanc (Boblo)
Blockhouse in time for War of 1812 bicentennial
celebrations has been even more dramatic as the
historic building has been completely torn down
and rebuilt.
During the 1837 Rebellion, American raid-
ers briefy occupied Bois Blanc Island. Tey were
successfully repelled by British forces who then
undertook to build and man three blockhouses on
the island to protect it from further intrusion by
American rebels.
Te blockhouse on the south end of Bois Blanc
Island has been the only one remaining for de-
cades.
It had fallen into considerable disrepair in recent
years until retired school teacher Bill Brundage set
out to restore the building to its former glory.
Brundage became familiar with the blockhouse
during his days as a local elementary school teach-
er when he would take school crossing guards over
to Boblo (Bois Blanc) in June as an end-of-school-
year treat. To tie in a little history on the trip, I

would take the students down to the blockhouse
and explain the history of it, he recalls. Ten Id
cut the kids loose to spend the rest of the day at the
amusement park.
Te sad state of the blockhouse was upsetting
to Brundage, who soon began knocking on doors
in Amherstburg, looking for support to restore the
building.
I was appalled at its condition, he says. I
knew that if something wasnt done, it would be
lost forever.
During his quest for help with restoring the
blockhouse, Brundage visited Fort Malden where
ofcials informed him that the building wasnt
owned by the federal government as it was situated
on land that was just outside the property owned
on Boblo by Parks Canada. He soon teamed up
with Norm Becker, a local engineer who had a
track record of restoring local historic buildings.
Te blockhouse was dismantled last November
and its components and logs were stored under the
old Boblo dock all winter so they could dry out in
preparation for its eventual rebuild this spring.
Te restoration process was an ambitious en-
deavour from the start. Te blockhouse is two
storeys high and, according to Brundage, about
70 per cent of the frst storey or ground level of
the blockhouse was suitable to be re-used in the
rebuild. Tis is in stark contrast to the estimated
30-40 per cent of material from the blockhouses
second storey that was deemed salvageable for re-
use in the rebuild. Original wood that could not be
saved was replaced by freshly-cut lumber.
Brundage visited Fort George in Niagara this
past winter where he took photos of a similar block-
house to determine what pieces were missing from
the Bois Blanc blockhouse and had to be replaced.
Trough it all, the biggest challenge faced by
Brundage and his group of volunteers has not been
the actual restoration and rebuilding of the Bois
Blanc blockhouse, but rather its fnancing.
Te total cost of the project is expected to be
$158,000. Becker is donating $28,000 in engineer-
ing, inspection and project management services.
Te Town of Amherstburg kicked in $7,900 and the
group hopes to raise the rest from in-kind and cash
donations in addition to grants from the federal
government. We are hopeful of receiving funds
from Parks Canada, but we dont know how much
or when we will be receiving it, says Brundage.
Te Boblo blockhouse was expected to be
completely rebuilt by June of this year, although
Brundage realizes that time frame may be a bit
ambitious.
Te building will be back on its original site by
June, but we will still have to build doors and gun
slits for it too, he explains. All of this work will be
done by hand, just as it was in 1838.
War of 1812 Bicentennial celebrations at the
Bois Blanc blockhouse include a First Nations en-
campment near the building for a weekend, the
same as the Aboriginals did for a longer period
nearly 200 years ago.
Afer War of 1812 bicentennial celebrations,
plans call for the blockhouse to be owned by the
Boblo homeowners association although Brund-
age hopes it will come under the ownership of
Parks Canada.

Re-enactors
By Kim Pallozzi
Amherstburgs peaceful Kings Navy Yard Park,
with its scenic gardens and pathways, wasnt al-
ways so serene.
In the early 19th century it was a bustling ship-
yard flled with hardworking men and women.
Fleets of imposing ships were built and repaired on
that very soil and British forces and First Nations
banded together to protect what was then known
as Upper Canada. Heroes, like General Isaac Brock
and Chief Tecumseh, did battle on that very spot.
Instead of reading about this rich history in
novels and textbooks, some prefer to re-live these
brave feats of courage. David May, president of the
Provincial Marine Amherstburg Re-enactment
Unit, has dedicated his time and efort to ensure
that the amazing stories that stem from the War of
1812 will not be forgotten. Near the base of Kings
Navy Yard Park is the historic Commissariat
Building where his re-enactment units clubhouse
fttingly resides.
Unfortunately there arent too many re-enact-
ments in the Amherstburg area, says May, whose
unit has between 50 and 80 members. Tey are
scattered all over Ontario and the major events
take place once every three to four weeks.
Te number of participants sharply varies de-
pending on the event, but several hundred people
are involved in the re-enactments and theyre from
all over, he says.
May frst became intrigued by Amherstburgs
history shortly afer he moved to the town 15
years ago. His friend, who was a volunteer at Fort
Malden, asked him to check it out and May soon
became actively involved.
It wasnt until a navy re-enactment in Chatham
11 years ago that he ofcially got hooked to par-
ticipating in living history events. Since then, its
the camaraderie that May appreciates most about
the hobby and the fact that youre doing what not
too many other people do.
He also fnds the artillery aspect to be very in-
teresting.
Before each demonstration, a plan must be
hatched. Preceding an event, we get the command-
ers of each group together and we plot out a battle
scenario that were going to follow, says May.
Te re-enactors must decide the roles of the
Americans, the British and the Aboriginals.
We fgure out who is going to do what and who
is going to be positioned where and what were go-
ing to do. Whether the British are going to advance
and then be repelled or if the Americans are going
to advance, explains May.
Safety is crucial, he says, because were fring
explosives. We train everybody on the artillery.
To make the hobby more appealing to those
who have been involved for many years, the Pro-
vincial Marine tends to get new toys every once in
awhile to keep things fresh. For instance, the unit
became unenthusiastic about fring a small swivel
gun during their demonstrations so we bought a
three pounder cannon, which is bigger than the
smaller one we had and that changes your whole
outlook because you have this nice, new, shiny,
bronze gun, explains May.
With fundraising money, the unit also pur-
chased a 44-foot north canoe that will be used in
their events. We get new things all the time and it
invigorates you.
Also invigorating is the fact that May is one of

Its hoped the statue will be unveiled in early
August at Amherstburgs Roots to Boots Festival.
A War of 1812 re-enactment depicting Te Cap-
ture of the Cuyahoga Packet is also scheduled to be
demonstrated for audiences at the event.
Te Cuyahoga Packet was an American mer-
chant vessel that sailed the Detroit River and car-
ried valuable documents concerning the British.
Last, but not least, May enjoys bringing the
Aboriginal experience to life. He fnds Tecumseh
particularly compelling.
Tere were a lot of stories about him. Every-
body calls him a chief, but I dont think he was. He
was a very wise leader, but if you talk to many of
the First Nations they will tell you that he wasnt
a chief.
May adds: When youre reading history, you
sort of have to choose what you believe.

Close to a half-century afer their unveiling, a
series or murals that adorn the west wall of Gen-
eral Amherst Secondary Schools gymnasium are
being restored as part of local War of 1812 Bicen-
tennial celebrations.
Its a thrill and an honour to be involved with
this project, admits Jason Dyrda, the local artist
given the daunting task of restoring the nine mu-
rals that depict local historic scenes ranging from
French settlers circa-1812 up to Canadas Centen-
nial year of 1967.
Te high-profle artwork is located adjacent to
Fort Malden National Historic Park, providing a
majestic streetscape.
Te biggest challenges of the project are that
the murals are huge and the stone product used
to create them was made in the 1960s and havent
been made since, admits Dyrda. We have had to
take samples of the stones of the wall in order to
determine how to best duplicate them.
Painting on and over an uneven stone surface
that comprise the murals was originally thought to
be a problem in their restoration, but likely wont
be the case.
We fgured out how to get around that, Dyrda
says. It wont be a problem.
Work started on the project in early May and is
expected to be completed in time for the August
3-5 Roots to Boots Festival.
While Dyrda, a house painter by trade, expect-
ed to complete the majority of work himself, he
was open to assistance from volunteers from the
community and General Amherst students.
Once completed, the restored murals should
stand the test of time for another century, Dyrda
anticipates. Te murals will be protected by a pro-
tective shield that will safeguard them from van-
dalism and weather elements.
Funding from Canadian Heritage, the Greater
Essex County District School Board and private
sector in-kind donations is covering the antici-
pated $50,000 cost of the project.

Tall Ships
Tis summer, travel back to 1812 by exploring
the magnifcent and memorable tall ships that
will be sailing our way. In the spirit of friend-
ship and history, one Canadian tall ship and one
American tall ship will be visiting our shores to
help ring in the bicentennial festivities.
Te St. Lawrence II, which is based out of
Portsmouth Harbour in Kingston, belongs to
Brigantine Incorporated, a non-proft organi-
zation which ofers a sail training program for
youth, 12 to 18 years old. In addition to the ad-
venture and excitement living aboard a tall ship,
trainees are taught how to steer the ship, ma-
nipulate its massive sails, and prepare meals, all
under the watchful eyes of trained sailors.
Te St. Lawrence II will be docking at
Colchester Harbour July 20 and 21. Afer a two-
day stay, this tall ship heads back out on Lake Erie
and will host a group of youth sailors for a week
of training. Te St. Lawrence II will then return
for the Explore the Shore festivities at Colchester
Harbour July 28-29, and will head out to Amher-
stburg August 4-5 to participate in the Roots to
Boots celebration.
Te Appledore IV, an American tall ship
based in Bay City, Michigan, is owned by Bay-
Sail, a non-proft organization which provides
youth sail training and education. Te Appledore
IV was built in 1989 in Palm Coast, Florida, and
is used most commonly by Science under Sail,
a kindergarten to grade 12 environmental edu-
cation program, as well as MainSail, a half-day
sail training program. Te ship is also available
for group tours, private charter and maintains a
regular schedule of public sails.
Te Appledore IV comes to Dieppe Park
during Summer Fest on the Riverfront, June 20
and will stay docked there until June 25. Visitors
can take a tour on this tall ship, which boasts a
3,500-sq.-f. sail area and can ft 52 passengers
including the crew.

and the Appledore IV, as well as other tall ships
which may be headed our way for the bicenten-
nial celebration, contact Kyra Knapp, War of 1812
project facilitator, at 519-784-1851.

Te American view
By Andrea Keelan
Windsors celebration of the bicentennial
of the War of 1812 may seem strange at frst
glance.
Why celebrate a war, especially one that
took place 200 years ago against our Yankee
neighbours? Part of the reason for the cele-
bration is to honour the peace that has been
maintained for two centuries.
Madelyn Della Valle, curator at Windsors
Community Museum, explains Canadas spe-
cial relationship with the United States.
I think that our relationship is rather
unique and I think that one of the best things
about our relationship is that although weve
had periods of war and confict, were still by
and large incredibly friendly allies right now.
Tere isnt that memory of war that seems to
exist in other parts of the world where people
have been at war.
Its truly hard to imagine that we were ever
at war with America considering that Canada
does more trade with Michigan than we do
with any other U.S. state or any other country
in the world, according to Roy Norton, con-
sul general at the Detroit Consulate General
of Canada.
Te [Windsor-Detroit] crossing that
both national governments are responsible
for managing is the busiest anywhere in the
8,000-plus kilometre length of our shared
border, says Norton.
Te distinctive relationship doesnt just ex-
ist in trade practices. How many Windsorites
have family and friends in Michigan or cross
the border daily for work? It wasnt much dif-
ferent 200 years ago.
Te militia werent too keen about this
war because it was kind of like a civil war, ex-
plains Della Valle.
While families didnt want to have to fght
each other, something bigger was at stake.
Te War of 1812 is, for many historians and
Canadians, a defnitive moment in Canadian
history.
Even though Canada was still controlled
by the British at the time, this war was when
Canadians gained some identity.
We didnt really become a country until
1867, but because the War of 1812 was, in
large part, fought by militias and the public
and natives, we start to get our own feeling
of not being British but being Canadian, says
Paul Butler, executive director of Brigantine
Inc. which will feature a 19
th
century warship
during the bicentennial events.
He says that up until the war, our history
was still British, and despite not wanting to
get involved in Britains war, 19
th
century
Canadians also knew they didnt want to be
American. [Our ancestors] said, we kind of
like who we are. Were not British and were
not American so what does that make us?
Te result, 200 years later, is passionate pa-
triotism combined with a solid bond of peace
with our American neighbours.
Te events taking place during the bicen-
tennial aim to focus on that result and trying
to show the public what life was like in this
area in 1812.
Te Capture of Detroit festival will take
place in Windsor August 25. It begins with
a symbolic community walk from Sandwich
town to the city festival plaza where activities
such as 19
th
century games, a dress up area
with period clothing where attendees can get
their picture taken, and art stations for kids
will be set up.
Te Windsor Symphony Orchestra will
perform three pieces at the festival includ-
ing the 1812 Overture (which was composed
by Tchaikovsky during the 1812 Napoleonic
war). Te WSO is hoping to be able to in-
clude real cannons and church bells in their
performance, which would make it authentic
to the original score.
Barbara Croall, a First Nations composer,
has been commissioned by the WSO to write
a piece honouring Chief Tecumseh which is
especially poignant given that Croall is a de-
scendant of warriors that fought alongside
Tecumseh in the capture of Detroit. Te com-
position includes a First Nations narrator and
drummers.
Brent Lee has also been commissioned to
create a piece that honours British General
Isaac Brock who worked with Chief Tecum-
seh to capture Detroit. He also employed cre-
ativity in defeating American leader William
Hull by dressing militiamen in old British
uniforms to give the impression that the Brit-
ish infantry was much bigger than it was.
Cathy Masterson, the manager of cultural
afairs at the city of Windsor, promises the
festival will be fun for all ages and that the fo-
cus of the festival is life on the Sandwich town
frontier in the 19
th
century.
Its a fun history lesson, she says.
Members of the Windsor Symphony Orchestra, shown here on stage at the Chrysler Theatre last year, will be performing
three pieces this August at the Capture of Detroit festival, including Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.

Run for Heroes
Te Blue Coats and the Red Coats will once
again be taking to the streets of Amherstburg and
the surrounding area this fall. But unlike their last
encounter during War of 1812 hostilities this
time they will be working toward a common goal.
Te World Alzheimers Day Run for Heroes
Marathon, the ofcial run of local War of 1812 bi-
centennial celebrations, will be held September 25.
Tis falls event comes on the heels (and shin
splints) of the frst-ever Run for Heroes Marathon
held in Essex County that had an impressive feld
of 663 participants.
We were thrilled with the turnout last year,
admits organizer Chris Uszynski but thats only
the starting point for us this year.
We want to be the biggest small-town mara-
thon in North America and have 4,000 runners.
Te Run for Heroes Marathon will feature 42k,
21k and 10k runs in addition to a 5k run/walk. All
are in support of World Alzheimers Day, Septem-
ber 25.
Te debilitating disease has had a profound im-
pact on the life of Uszynski whose 90-year-old father
has been battling the disease for 21 years. Up until
recently, he was cared for at home by his wife. He-
roes live among us, raise the bar and make us all bet-
ter people, Uszynski says. My mother is my hero.
Proceeds from the Amherstburg Run for Heroes
Marathon go to the Alzheimer Society of Windsor
and Essex Countys caregiver support programs.
Last years marathon evolved from the 100-km
ultra -marathons that Uszynski had organized for
fve years.
Te theme for this years Run for Heroes Mara-
thon was an obvious choice, he adds. Given the
signifcance of the War of 1812 bicentennial events,
it was a natural ft to tie-in the race this year.
Besides its cause and theme, the Run for He-
roes Marathon is certain to attract record-breaking
number of participants and spectators due to its
world-class course. It includes routes that follow
along the waterfront, through downtown Amher-
stburg and Fort Malden and along Big Creek.
Te change in elevation is only 31-feet, so its a
fat race, Uszynski says. We have a fast and scenic
race.
Fify-one per cent of last years runners had
personal best bests, and 99 per cent of participants
said they would happily recommend the race to
their friends. Te other one per cent obviously
have no friends, Uszynski quips.
Runners, each of whom will receive a commem-
orative six-colour War of 1812 medallion, must se-
lect a jersey colour in order to participate in the
Run for Heroes Marathon: blue in keeping with
the American forces of the War of 1812 and red
for the British.
Runners do not necessarily have to select
their colour in order to identify themselves as
American or Canadian. We just want everyone
to come out and have a great time in support of
a great cause.
But no-one can claim that they are from
Switzerland when it comes to selecting their
jersey colour no-one can be neutral.

Te War of 1812 brought forth villains and he-
roes, allies and enemies. For enslaved African Ca-
nadians and escaped slaves from the U.S. living in
Upper and Lower Canada, it must have been dif-
fcult to discern who was who.
At the outbreak of the war, slavery was still a le-
gal practice in Canada. Olivier Le Jeune, a boy taken
from his African home, was the frst slave recorded
in this country in 1628. Slavery continued in Upper
Canada and Lower Canada (Ontario and Quebec)
for another 200 years, giving white men, living frst
under the French fag and then under the British,
ownership of more than 2,000 Black people.
When the U.S. launched the War of 1812, both
free and enslaved Blacks in Canada fought for the
British in the Militia, regular army regiments and
the Royal British Navy.
Teir contribution would have been the same
as other militia members; however, they might
have had more resolve to repulse the Americans
since the actual physical freedom of their families
was at stake. Tis wasnt the case for white resi-
dents of Canada. For them it would have just been
a change in government, says Peter Meyler, who
edited Broken Shackles: Old Man Henson, From
Slavery to Freedom and co-wrote with David Mey-
ler A Stolen Life: Searching for Richard Pierpoint.
Volunteering to take up arms against invad-
ing Americans, Blacks were engaged in the fght
on land and water. Tis past February, honour-
ing Black History Month, Prime Minister Stephen
Harper stated, In conjunction with the 200
th
anni-
versary of the War of 1812, we are taking a special
look this year at the important contributions made
by black soldiers to the historic battles that helped
defne the country that Canada would ultimately
become.
Te prime minister singled Richard Pierpoint, a
freed slave, among the heroes of the fght for Can-
ada. In his late 60s, Harper said, Pierpoint volun-
teered and served with distinction in a number of
battles in the Niagara Peninsula.
Pierpont had fought with the British during the
American Revolution and won his freedom. He
was ready to fght again, but this time, he wanted
to serve in an Upper Canada regiment comprised
of Black soldiers. Believing it unnecessary, Major-
General Isaac Brock frst rejected Pierponts ofer.
Afer the Americans invaded Sandwich on July
12, 1812, Brock thought better and authorized the
Coloured Corps, as long as a white man would be
in command. Te seasoned and stalwart Pierpont
served as a private.
Although their white leader was not up for the
job, the Coloured Corps distinguished themselves
at the Battle of Queenston Heights on Oct. 13,
1812, fring and charging upon advancing Ameri-
cans. Te British and the Blacks were ultimately
victorious. General Brock was killed in battle.
Te Coloured Corps also earned respect from
the Royal Engineers for their expertise and willing-
ness in constructing fortifcations and barracks.
Few records exist to tell of the acts of bravery
and self-sacrifce made by Blacks defending Can-
ada in the war. John Hall, believed to have been
born in Amherstburg to a First Nations father and
an African mother, spoke during his lifetime of
serving as a scout with Tecumsehs warriors.
Although details of Halls life confict, he was
said to have been present at Tecumsehs death in
battle. Hall personally sufered a bayonet wound to
his leg, causing a permanent limp.
Fighting took Hall from the Detroit River to Ni-
agara. Eventually captured by the Americans, Hall
was imprisoned in the U.S. till wars end. Instead of
being freed, he was sold into slavery to a Kentucky
master.
Afer a number of years, he escaped home to
Canada. Hall fnished out his days in Owen Sound,
at age 100 or more.
Between September 1812 and August 1816,
4,000 former slaves in the U.S. took up the ofer of
British Vice-Admiral Alexander Cochrane for pas-
sage to British colonies. Approximately 2,000 Black
people were brought by boat to Nova Scotia during
that period.
Later, looking to the north for freedom, tens of
thousands of African-Americans traveled the ar-
duous Underground Railway to Canada between
1815 and 1860. Te Tirteenth Amendment to
the American Constitution abolishing slavery was
ratifed in 1865.
Afer the War of 1812 was over, the militiamen
were sent home and the Coloured Corps disband-
ed. In 1821, the government granted white veter-
ans 200 acres each; Black vets were given half that.
In place of a land grant, Pierpont asked for passage
home to Africa. He was denied.
Te role of Blacks in society remained the
same afer the war, Meyler says. Slavery still ex-
isted and did not end until the Emancipation Act
of 1833 was passed by Britain.
In 1834, the Act took efect throughout the Brit-
ish Empire, including Canada.
Education for Black children was restricted at
times. Many Blacks had to struggle to survive in On-
tario; however, some prospered and overcame mar-
ginalization and the general prejudice in society.
Elise Harding-Davis, an African-Canadian
Heritage Consultant, shows that our history can-
not be segregated.
Tat we can openly say we are the ofspring of
the likes of Major General Sir Isaac Brock, hero of
the War of 1812 and General Robert E. Lee, Civil
War Confederate army commander, gives us no
glory, it just points out our accurate and rightful
heritage, she says.
We too lived, contributed and died through
those evolutionary times. We were not just slaves
without souls or feelings, but people who wanted
and needed to belong.

At the outbreak of the War of 1812, the Western
District encompassing Essex and Kent Counties
had 4,000 residents, 80 per cent of whom were of
French descent. Able-bodied men were obliged to
serve in the civilian militia and be prepared to fght
under the British fag.
Te frst French arrived in 1701 to help settle
Detroit for France. In 1749, France established an-
other settlement, this time on the other side of the
river. It was named Petite Cte, todays LaSalle.
Te English took control in 1760, refusing to
recognize the French peoples settled lands from
Lake St. Clair to Lake Erie, until at least three de-
cades later. By 1796, the English lost ground in an
agreement that saw the Detroit River designated
as the dividing line separating Michigan from Up-
per Canada. Months before the War of 1812 be-
gan, the American government fnally recognized
French residents longstanding land claims in the
Detroit region. Looking to protect their property,
the French in the U.S. were not about to side with
the British.
Afer years of political wrangling, the boundary
meant little to the French. Tey continued to cross
the water, intermarry and interact with their own
as they had done for more than 100 years.
People dont realize that in 1812, this area was
very much a French place. Tere were so many
Frenchmen involved in the war and there are so
few records, says Guillaume Teasdale, post-doc-
toral fellow in the Centre for Research on French
Canadian Culture at the University of Ottawa and
sessional instructor in the Department of History
at the University of Windsor.
Tis past winter, Dr. Teasdale taught Te Peoples
of the Detroit River Region and the War of 1812.
Most French people were not really pleased
about the new war, Teasdale says. Tey were not
very supportive; not pro-American or pro-British.
Tey just decided they should side with their own
government.
Local farmers fulflled their militia duties as the
government required. Prior to 1812, they would
answer the call to muster once a year, show up with
pitchforks, march a bit, have a drink and go home.
Once war was declared, militiamen typically
served for three-month stints and then hurried
back to family land laid along with river.
One exception was the Baby family, already
working for the British government and so show-
ing more loyalty. Tey are the namesake behind the
Francois Baby House, a heritage site in downtown
Windsor that's named afer Francois Baby, frst
member for Kent in the Upper Canada legislative
assembly. A militia ofcer in the war, his home was
occupied by American Brigadier General William
Hull who set up headquarters there afer his forces
invaded Canada in July 1812.
Most locals who played some role in the War
of 1812 in the Detroit River region were either en-
rolled in the Essex or Wayne militia, says Teasdale.
On this side of the border, the Essex militia regi-
ment included two fank companies. Local French
settlers made up about half of the frst fank com-
pany, while other local French settlers made up al-
most all of the second fank company. Apparently,
there were also some battalion companies within
the Essex militia regiment.
Te Michigan Territory militia included two reg-
iments in southeast Michigan. Te First Regiment
included men living in Fort Detroit or nearby farm-
ing settlements; the Second Regiment included men

Think you've got a connection with someone who lived
during the War of 1812? The Essex County branch of the
Ontario Genealogical Society (OGS) wants to commemo-
rate that connection.
Amherstburg's 1812 bicentennial website (1812am-
herstburg.com) includes the link Finding your 1812 Roots
through the OGS with an a-w listing of family names of
those living around the time of the war. Everyone from
Allain (allocated land in Amherstburg in 1820) to Henry
Wright (a proven Loyalist of First Flank Company, 1st Es-
sex Regiment who fought from 1812-15) is listed.
People like Debra Honor have beneftted from tracing
their genealogical roots. The retired teacher began
researching her family's history in elementary school and
learned her ancestor, Edward Hazel, was among those
with Chief Tecumseh when the famous Shawnee warrior
was killed at the Battle of the Thames.
Honor is Region 1 director of the Essex, Kent and
Lambton OGS. She is among those who have received a
certifcate that acknowledges their genealogy.
The Essex County branch of the OGS is accepting
anyone who can prove descent from one of the following:
ta British soldier based in the Western District (Essex,
Kent or Lambton counties) during the War of 1812
ta member of a Canadian Militia unit who served in
the area
ta First Nations person who saw action on the British
side during the war
ta person who lived in the Western District.
Successful applicants will also be invited to com-
memoration activities in the area from 2012-15.

living at River Raisin.
Two independent militia companies embodied
settlers from along the Clinton River and the River
St. Clair. Te majority of the companies were com-
prised of Frenchmen, directed by French leaders.
On the American side, sources tell us that doz-
ens of Frenchmen worked for the U.S. government
as spies. Some had relatives on this side of the bor-
der, Teasdale says.
Militia rosters and other sources indicate French
Canadian militia fought alongside British soldiers
and First Nations warriors at the Battle of the River
Raisin in Frenchtown, now Monroe, Michigan on
Jan. 22, 1813. Almost for sure, you had members
of the same family on the battleground in diferent
camps, Teasdale says.
Afer the British won, General Henry Procter
gave his word that American prisoners would be
spared; however, some Natives killed up to 60
wounded prisoners under their guard.
One French Canadian militiaman who died in
the River Raisin battle was Jean Baptist Mainville,
born in 1777 to Charlotte Leduc and Joseph Miv-
ille dit Deschenes (spellings of family surnames
vary as many settlers were illiterate, relying on the
local priest for accuracy). Today, Mainvilles de-
scendent Bob Janisse is doggedly researching the
family genealogy.
Janisse, 70, achieved a B.A. in History last se-
mester at the University of Windsor but felt com-
pelled to take Dr. Teasdales course, especially
when he learned the class would visit the River
Raisin National Battlefeld Park.
Janisse, who has traced his family line locally to
1745 with the arrival of likely voyageur-turned-set-
tler Franis Nicholas Janisse, also boasts other fam-
ily members in the 1812 militia: Nicholas Janisse
and Joseph Janisse were in the 2nd Regiment Es-
sex Militia under Captain Maissonville; and in the
Company led by Captain Labute was Hyppolite Jan-
isse, great-great-great-grandfather of Bob Janisse.
I am not sure if I am proud that they partici-
pated because we dont know whether or not they
volunteered because it was the law that every
able-bodied man between the ages of 16 and 50
(Militia Acts of 1787 and 1793) was obligated to
join, Janisse refects. I do think that it is a very
distinctive and notable fact in my genealogy that
they participated and that it can be proven with
primary evidence and not just hearsay. Not too
many can claim that or want to take the time to do
the research or even care about that.
Another of Teasdales students, Larry Beneteau,
is descended from the original French settlers.
Te frst Beneteaus came to Canada shortly af-
ter 1701 as farmers, Beneteau says. He knows his
long-ago relations battled on both sides during the
War of 1812.
Of their involvement, Beneteau says, Im very
proud that they fought to protect their families and
their lands.
Teasdale estimates a few dozen French Canadian
militia died in the war. Rather than fght their friends
and relations, there were a lot of French people who
deserted during some battles and hid in the houses of
family on the other side of the border.
Te war years were harsh for French families.
Native warriors killed their livestock for food; in-
vading armies burned their crops and tore down
farm fences for frewood, leaving fruit trees and
remaining livestock unprotected.
You can fnd a lot of petitions from the French
to authorities or Congress complaining of how
they are starving, Teasdale says.
Tey requested food, money and relief. I dont
think they got everything they asked for, but you
can tell theyre not very happy about the destruc-
tion of their properties. By the end of the war, ev-
eryone was starving: British, French and the Indi-
ans. It was time for the war to end, Teasdale says.
Tere are almost no sources written by French
people about their experience of the War of 1812,
Teasdale says with regret. It is a feld of research
that has been neglected.

Phantoms of the Canard

By Anna Cabrera Cristofaro
History, mystery, intrigue and an animated cast
of characters from our regions history thats what
Ron Lapointe of River Canard Canoe Company
hopes to contribute to this years much anticipated
bicentennial festivities.
From April 21 to October 8, River Canard Ca-
noe Company, in partnership with local director
Rob Tymec and his theatre company Monkeys with
a Typewriter present Phantoms of the Canard, an
interactive moving play which brings to life the
stories of our regions past, through walk-abouts in
areas of historical signifcance as well as a canoe
ride down River Canard.
Without giving too much away, I can say that
this is based on our old ghost tours concept, says
Lapointe. A narrator will accompany the group,
and our phantoms actors and actresses dressed
as folks from times gone by will appear and dis-
appear throughout the tour. Its meant to be sus-
penseful, surprising and entertaining, a diferent
way to look back at our history.
Trough the two-hour tour, groups will learn
about the fateful frst meeting of Tecumseh and
Brock and their siege of Detroit. Canadian militia
soldiers will make appearances, as will members of
the First Nations and their involvement in the war.
Youre meant to feel River Canard and its
ghosts come to life, says Lapointe. Itll feel like
youre right there, when James Hancock, the frst
British casualty of the war, died, which was right
on River Canard. Hancocks fellow soldier, John
Dean, was injured, and taken prisoner.
Te signifcance of this particular event when
Hancock was the frst to fall as British soldiers
were attacked by 250 American enemies on July
16, 1812 prompted Lapointe to approach Am-
herstburg Council in May. He is hoping that Es-
sex County council rename the bridge over River
Canard the John Dean and James Hancock 1812
Memorial Bridge.
Amherstburg Council directed its administra-
tion to prepare a report investigating the accuracy
of Lapointe's detailed historical information.
Tose soldiers stood their ground, says
Lapointe. Tey represent the strength and brav-
ery of those who fought here.

July 28, 2012 will not be a normal Saturday
night at the Leamington marina.
Te town of Leamington has planned an im-
pressive full-day celebration for the War of 1812
bicentennial. Marina visitors will be taken back
to the year 1812, surrounded by people in period
dress performing re-enactments from the time.
General Brocks Sail Away and Te Ofcers
Mess are signature events planned for the day.
Tey honour General Brocks one-night stay at
what is now Point Pelee.
While General Brock was here in Leaming-
ton, he hosted a gala for his ofcers, and did some
sailing events and activities on Lake Erie. We are
trying to recreate what he actually did during his
one-night stay here in Leamington, says Amanda
Smith, co-chair of the Leamington War of 1812
Bicentennial Committee.
General Brocks Sail Away is a free event for
boaters docked at the Leamington marina. Te
boaters will leave the marina around 8 a.m. and
travel to Pelee Island where a shoreline lunch
has been planned at Pelee Island Winery. Cost is
$15.95 plus tax, per person. For information, call
519-326-0834 or email marina@leamington.ca.
Te Ofcers Mess is a bufet dinner event start-
ing at 6 p.m. It takes place at the marinas Leam-
ington pavilion, which will be transformed that
night to look like an Ofcers Mess, the proper
name for the place where sailors and ofcers eat
together, Smith explains.
Te dinner features foods of the 1812 time pe-
riod including a veal and pig carving station.

Period dress is encouraged. For advance tick-
ets $35 per person, including dinner bufet and
entertainment by Celtic trio B.J. Laub and Friends
and Hart School of Dance highland dancers call
Leamington marina, 519-326-0834.
Te afernoon also includes some unique, fam-
ily friendly events all free and open to the public.
Tey start shortly afer the Sail Away concludes
around 1 p.m.
If the average person is down at the Leaming-
ton marina in the afernoon on July 28th, they are
going to see a lot of activity going on, says Smith.
Tere will be fully dressed re-enactors. On the
marina patio, the local band Same Latitude as
Rome will perform Te Songs of 1812.
Afer 2 p.m. you can watch two voyager canoes
demonstrating in the marina water area. Tey will
also race towards land, perform a fur trade re-en-
actment in full costume, then return to their ca-
noes and exit the marina. Tis event is coordinated
through Provincial Marina Re-enactment Group
and the Windsor Essex Canoe Club.
A Smudge ceremony follows at the marina,
5-5:30 p.m. Tis is a welcoming ceremony where
a prayer is said to the spirits to promote peace,
goodwill and protection. It will be presented by the
Caldwell First Nations, a local First Nations group
located in Leamington, which will also perform
traditional drum-
ming and dance.
Tis is a very
unique thing we
are able to do in
Leamington be-
cause we have
a First Nations
group, Smith
says. If youve
never seen a
Smudge ceremo-
ny or this type of
welcome from the
First Nations, its
going to be very
ceremonial, and
really unique. And they encourage participation.
Leamington is also participating in the interna-
tional Peace Garden Project, a joint Canadian-U.S.
event thats led by the Binational Tourism Alliance.
Te town has selected an existing garden at the
marina to dedicate and design as an international
peace garden and to celebrate 200 years of peace
and friendship between the two countries. An un-
veiling of the peace garden takes place June 15 at 10
a.m. at Leamington Marina.
Leamington Mayor John Paterson has extended
invitations to the towns sister cities in Holly, Mich.
and Sandusky and Port Clinton, Ohio, to partici-
pate in events that day.
Te war of 1812 is important to Canadas his-
tory, Smith says of what prompted Leamington
to celebrate the milestone year. Tere are bicen-
tennial celebrations happening across our region,
and its important for Leamington to participate
in celebrating those events at a local level. And it
gives not only our local residents, but visitors to the
community a very specifc event to come out and
be involved with.

Same Latitude as Rome
By Anna Cabrera Cristofaro
Heres a fun fact: geographically, Essex County
sits on the same latitude as Rome, Italy. It was this
little tidbit of trivia that inspired musician Peter
Boyer to round up some of the most talented mu-
sicians and songwriters in the region and create a
band that writes and performs original music about
events in Canadian history.
Same Latitude as Rome has a whole suite of
songs that tells of what happened in southern On-
tario, Boyer explains.
I always felt that the Canadian narrative isnt
talked about enough. As Canadians from this
area, we live in a sort of American bubble. Were
inundated with music and cultural references
from the United States its nothing to us to hum
Sweet Home Alabama or sing about Billy the Kid. I
thought, How many of us know about Louis Riel?
Characters in our history are intriguing.
Shouldnt they be epitomized in song?
Boyers frst song was about the skirmish on
River Canard on July 16, 1812, when Brigadier-
General William Hull sent a troop of Americans
under the command of Colonel Lewis Cass to see
how close they could get to Amherstburg. Te
Americans outnumbered the British, who fell back,
but abandoned their position the next day. Tey
later returned, on several occasions, in an attempt
to take back the post, which had been re-occupied
by the British.
As a songwriter, diving into this rich, interest-
ing history, I found it was a great opportunity, says
Boyer. While it wasnt a grand plan at the time to
write a suite of songs on 1812, something led me
there.
Tat something was a fateful meeting with
Dan Loncke, a retired veterinarian and educator
from Windsor who conducts War of 1812 tours on
the Detroit River. With a passionate interest in Ca-
nadian history, and specifcally on the War of 1812,
Loncke was Boyers dream partner, someone with
whom he could write his War of 1812 Bicentennial
songwriting project.
We struck a great relationship, says Boyer.
Dan knows the history inside out, and with Dans
help, it made the songwriting experience even bet-
ter. Not only did I have this historical authority, we
clicked as artists as well and that chemistry be-
tween songwriters is something you can never take
for granted.
Same Latitude As Rome grew to seven mem-
bers, including Boyer, Loncke, Chris Martin (bass),
Jef Meloche (drums), Besnik Yzeiri (violin), Tim
Logsdon (mandolin), Anneke McCabe (keyboard
and vocals) and David Light (acoustic guitar). Te
group performs as a duo, trio and quartet, and
while their performances as a full seven-piece band
are rare, they always record as a full band. To date,
they have recorded three CDs and are set to release
their latest CD, Songs of 1812, in June.
Same Latitude As Rome will be performing at Fort
Maldens Military Heritage Days Festival Saturday,
July 31 at 1 and 3 p.m. For sound clips and more in-
formation, visit www.samelatitudeasrome.com.

which will release its CD 1812 at Mackenzie Hall June 23.

Chorus:
Hold your fre, hold your line
Dont be afraid
Pack the charge, light the load
Fire the carronade
In the year of 1812, America did dare
To resist his Majesty, and war declared
Fighting men made ready everywhere
To conquer Canada, they prepared
To make war, the U.S. was not averse
After British blockades seized their trade and
commerce
And by impressment, the Admiralty coerced
Yankee ships with British sailors, who did desert
Settlers brought confict to the old Northwest
Tecumseh sought alliance to prevent conquest
He said With the Redcoats guns, the Yankees shall
be repressed
So he joined the British cause and loyalty professed
Militiamen take heed, what youre fghting for
Its the noble and the brave pay the price of war
Though both sides stared down the cannons bore
Today we live in peace and fght no more

October 5, 2013 marks the 200-year anniver-

sary of one of the most pivotal battles of the War
of 1812 the Battle of the Tames.
Te battle, which happened just outside of
modern day Tamesville on Longwoods Road,
was the last battle fought by Shawnee Chief Te-
cumseh, who has gone down in history as one
of Canadas most signifcant leaders. Te history
books mark Tecumsehs participation in the Bat-
tle of the Tames as one of unrelenting courage.
As the US cavalry fell upon them in waves,
the British broke and ran. But Tecumseh stayed
and fought to the death, was how Will Fergu-
son, a noted author of Canadian culture and his-
tory, described the battle.
Tecumsehs fght alongside British troops in
order to stop American expansion into First Na-
tions territory as well as to establish a sovereign
First Nations homeland, had made the Battle of
the Tames, a technical loss for the British in the
war, a marker of signifcance
for the alliance of British and
First Nations troops. It was
also a critical reminder of the
role of First Nations people
in the history of Canada.
In order to mark this
event, the Battle of the
Tames organizing commit-
tee, chaired by well- known
local re-enactor Mark Dick-
erson, are planning a week-
end full of activities and
education about the Battle of
the Tames and the War of
1812. In fact, the committee
will soon be receiving more
help, with funding received
from the Ontario Trillium
Foundation, when it hires a
projects manager to help fa-
cilitate the event.
Tis is going to be a great
event. We plan to entertain,
educate and involve our
community about our past,
says Dickerson. Our goal is
to make people more aware
about part of the story, how
we became Canadians and
to honour those who lived through such dif-
cult times.
Te Oct. 4-6, 2013 commemorative event
kicks of with an educational day on Friday
aimed at local schools and is followed Saturday
by a large-scale re-enactment of the battle. Te
roads leading up to the event will be closed for
the large expected crowd and buses will be avail-
able to shuttle people back to designated park-
ing areas.
People will be able to interact with re-enac-
tors, including a live cavalry. Tey will also en-
joy period games, stories and food.
For more information about this event, visit
the Battle of the Tames Committee website at
battleofhethames.ca.

Stepping foot into the hand-crafed wigwams
of Moraviantowns Indigenous Enviro-Education
Centre (IEC) flls you with a sense of awe at the
amount of work which went into building one of
these traditional First Nations homes.
Te smell of the fre, which burns day and night
year-round to protect the moisture content of the
wigwams, flls the air while knowledgeable guides
(and builders of the structure) impart the knowl-
edge of First Nations life around the time of the
War of 1812.
Te centre, called Nmaachihna, which in the
Lunaape language means We are going home, of-
fers a series of programming whose aim is to instill
in First Nation children and youth a strong sense
of belonging and cultural identity. It will soon wel-
come both First Nations and non-First Nations
youth alike to participate in the programming
aimed at understanding one of the many tradition-
al aboriginal ways of life pre-European contact.
Bruce Stonefsh, the executive director of the
IEC, an educational body which focuses on First
Nations teachings in and out of the classroom,
says that the vision of Nmaachihna is to create a
site where IEC will deliver culturally based pro-
gramming to schools both within our First Na-
tions membership and within the public educa-
tion system.
Under the current curriculum all Ontario stu-
dents in grade eight are required to learn about the
War of 1812, as well as the history of First Nations
in Canada. Tis centre ofers hands-on learning
that falls in line with educational policy.
Here, both students and adults are able to
learn the history of the authentically re-created
traditional village. All structures on the property
are built and maintained according to customs of
the time without the use of modern gas-powered
tools. Visitors can view demonstrations and even
participate in activities such as canoe making, hide
tanning, traditional sport feld, and a battlefeld
which will tell the story of the Battle of the Tames
from the First Nations perspective.
IEC looks to expand the common perception
of learning, bringing people into an authentic en-
vironment where all fve senses are being activated
in the learning experience. Te site is rapidly be-
coming the subject of interest even outside of the
educational community.
Te site promises a meaningful and authen-
tic look at First Nations culture, language, and
lifestyle, and the ability to learn that history in a
hands-on way.
For information and/or to book your school,
class, or community group contact: Bruce Stonefsh,
IEC executive director, iecstonefsh@xplornet.com.
Handcrafted wigwams and burning fres greet visitors to the Indigenous Enviro-Education Centre at Moraviantown. The authentically recreated First Nation village presents living history
from the time of the War of 1812.
