VICTORIA & MONTREAL RESEARCH
Victoria & Montreal Research In September of 2003, former Day School Students Jane Stelkia and Irene Bryson traveled with anthropologist Andrea Walsh to Victoria and to Montreal to research the story of their school and teacher. In Victoria, the research team examined archival records located at the University of Victoria, the British Columbia Archives and Records, and the Royal BC Museum. In Montreal, Stelkia, Bryson and Walsh visited Concordia University, St. Willibrord's Church, and the Cote des Nieges Cemetery to learn more about the man Anthony Walsh. The visit to the Cote des Nieges Cemetery was to locate the gravesite of Mr. Walsh. This portion of the trip was filmed as part of the creation of a documentary film about the Inkameep Day School. |
