Hull sector The cradle of this region's European settlement, the Hull sector started in 1800—26 years before

Bytown (Ottawa) was founded. The historical importance of the Outaouais' economic core is

reflected in the richness of its industrial heritage, portrayed by the E. B. Eddy buildings (1883–1940),

the Théâtre de l'Île (1889), the Château d'eau (1902–1910) and La Fonderie (1942–1943). Several

historic homes are also part of these treasures, including the Charron (1827), Wright-Scott (circa

1855) and Fairview (circa 1862) houses, which will capture the hearts of heritage lovers.

Chaudière Falls and E. B. Eddy buildings (Recognized as historic monuments by the government of Québec in 2001)

Aboriginal people portaged the Ottawa River for thousands of years before

Philemon Wright founded his settlement on this site in Hull Township at

the beginning of the 19th century. It was here that legendary strongman

Jos. Montferrand fought and routed 150 Shiners in 1829. The E. B. Eddy

Company was established here, and its matches, sawmills and pulp and

paper mills were a major factor in the Outaouais' economic development.

The Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada has designated the

Chaudière portage trail as a national historic site, and Philemon Wright

and Ezra Butler Eddy as national historic persons. Some of the old E. B.

Eddy buildings have been recognized as historic monuments by the

government of Québec.

Ruisseau de la Brasserie Sector (Municipal Heritage Site)

The ruisseau de la Brasserie sector, known as Brewery Creek during the

early settlement, has been a key industrial site in the Outaouais. Together

with the Chaudière Falls sector, it constituted the city's industrial core

during the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. To this day,

the shores of the creek, which defines the boundaries of île de Hull, are

marked by several heritage industrial buildings: the Théâtre de l'Île (old

pumping station), La Filature (Hanson Mills), the Château d'eau, and the

Argentina Village heritage sector, the only 19th century architectural

ensemble to have survived the Great Hull Fire of 1900.

Wright Scott House Historic Site 28, boulevard Alexandre-Taché

(Recognized as a historic site by the government of Québec in 1979 and

Municipal Heritage Site)

This elegant stone house, surrounded by greenery, was built around 1855

on the original property of Philemon Wright. The Neo-Gothic style building

was constructed for Philemon Ephraim Wright—grandson of the founder

of Hull—whose sister, Nancy Louisa, is closely associated with the house's

history. Married to John Scott, first Mayor of Ottawa, she raised her

children in the house and lived there until her death in 1901. The house

remained inhabited by her descendants and their heirs until 1963. The

only historic site in the Outaouais to have been recognized by the

government of Québec, the house and its exceptional grounds, located on

the west shore of the ruisseau de la Brasserie, were so designated in 1979.

This site now belongs to the National Capital Commission.

Western Quebec An undisclosed number of families might have been descendants of Loyalists

Ancient counties of Effingham, Ottawa, York

One of the difficultés of creating such a guide is that different names are used for the same

place at different times and religious denominations used different handles at different times. A

good example of this is that at various times the Anglicans were called Episcopalians, Church of

England, United Church of England and Ireland, and Anglicans. - Source: Doug Armstrong,

The Laurentian Region

Prior to 1792 - The Laurentian Region including Gatineau County was referred to as the

Counties of Effingham, Leinster and York.

1829 - The name of York was changed to Ottawa County.

1853 – Pontiac was detached from Ottawa

1892 – Ottawa was divided into Labelle and Wright

1917 – Wright became Hull

1919 – Part of Hull became Papineau

1919 – Hull would join Gatineau

Clarendon Township

First settled in 1792 and centered in Shawville in the southern portion of Pontiac - Clarendon

was formed prior to the establishment of Pontiac - The township of Clarendon is also referred to

in various Protestant church documents as North Clarendon and South Clarendon

Effingham County

Established in 1792 as one of the original county with Leinster and York, which formed the

Laurentian region - Effingham was bordered to the south by the township of Mille Iles, to the

east by Leinster county, to the southwest by Arundel township and to the extreme west by York

county (Gatineau - Pontiac - Hull - Papineau)

Gatineau County

A large county bordered to the west by Pontiac county, to the east by Papineau county, to the

north by Labelle county - A portion of the county of Hull was added to the county of Gatineau in

5

the past - On September 4th, 1826 the Methodist Church of Upper Canada established a circuit

in Western Quebec between the Ottawa and Gatineau Rivers in order to serve the township of

Hull. Rev. Philander Smith was the first presiding minister, and Rev. George Bissell was the

circuit preacher. The first chapel built in 1827 was located on Aylmer Road in the town of

Wright's town (Hull). In 1858 a new Methodist church opened in Aylmer. During the 30 years

following the founding of the Hull circuit, horse-riding preachers penetrated into the far reaches

of the hinterland. Congregations were started by the early Hull (Aylmer) chapel in Chelsea,

Ironside, Cantley, Templeton, Mountain View, Perry Schoolhouse, Zion (Upper Eardley), Centre

Eardley, Brick Church and Lower Eardley. Seven of these original congregations existed in

1986. - Source: Betty Faris from a book entitled Oneness - The annals of the United Church in

Papineau county (Buckingham, Lochaber, Templeton, Thurso, Gore region)

Papineau County

A county bounded to the west by Gatineau county, Argenteuil to the east, Labelle to the north -

Papineau was the last to be incorporated in 1919 as a county from a portion of Hull county, the

seigniory of Montebello and from the territory of Petite Nation - The latter name refers to a River

by the same name on the Québec side of the Ottawa River in comparison to another River by

the name Rivière Nation (South Nation), the latter located south of the Ottawa River within the

township of Plantagenet and Alfred. From about 1830 or most likely prior, Protestant settlers

within the county held their worship services in various homes and in the absence of a minister,

the most literate person in the community would lead in the reading of scripture, hymn-singing

and prayers. Burials were handled likewise, a simple service would be held, many of the

6

homesteads had family burial plots on top of a hill or a far corner of the land. In 1830 Rev. John

Edwards, Baptist minister visited the Seigneurie of Petite-Nation (Papineauville), the church was

organized on September 5th 1835 - In 1836 Rev. Alexander Fletcher of St. Andrew's

church in Cumberland baptized a child from a Buckingham couple - In 1853, Rev. G.M.W.

Carey ministered to a few Baptist families in Thurso. In 1864 a Baptist chapel was erected in

Ontario across the Ottawa River would join the congregation of Thurso - In 1869, a Baptist

church was erected in Buckingham, Rev. J.S. Ross and Rev. J. Higgins ministered to the

settlers of Buckingham - In 1876, the Baptists opened a chapel in Mulgrave, Rev. G.G. Harrop,

Parish of Clarendon

The Anglican Parish of Clarendon was founded in 1843 by Bishop G.H. Mountain of Québec

City. Anglican clergy from Hull had visited Clarendon from Hull as early as 1832. During the

early years they were called to minister in Clarendon, but also in Quyon, Portage du Fort,

Bryson, Bristol and others. Rev. J.S. Sykes arrived in 1854. In 1861 the area became part of the

newly formed Rural Deanery of St. Andrew's (Argenteuil County), the latter under the leadership

of Rev. Joseph Abbott. In 1883, Rev. William Herbert Naylor became Rural Dean of the then

newly formed Deanery of Clarendon. By 1895, churches at Clarke's Settlement, Greermount

and Thorne Centre were opened. More churches were being built in North Onslow and Bristol

Mines. In 1898 Saint Alban's of Parkman opened, in 1901 churches in Radford and Charteris

opened. By 1905, there were 16 churches with organized congregations in what had once been

the Anglican Mission of Clarendon. Sources: St. Paul's Anglican in Shawville, Pontiac County &

Pontiac County

In 1853 Pontiac county was formed from the western portion of Ottawa county. The county is

bordered to the east by Gatineau, to the west by Témiscamingue, to the north by Labelle - In

1822, Rev. Charles Stewart, a travelling missionary, visited Anglicans in Hull who agreed to

build a church. Philemon Wright contributed £100. By 1824, a minister, Rev. Amos Ansley

(Annesley) had been appointed by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel (SPG) to serve

the community - In 1829, the first church in Pontiac county opened in Lower Litchfield within the

township of Litchfield, it was first named the Church of Scotland - In 1830, Stewart who was

then Rt. Rev. Charles Stewart, second Bishop of Québec returned to Hull to consecrate the

church of Saint James. In 1842, the Rt. Rev. George Jehoshophat Mountain, third Bishop of

Québec, established the parish of Christ Church in Aylmer and received permission from the

7

SPG for the appointment of the Rev. Canon John B.G. Johnston to minister the new church as
