Talbot Papers: Biographers: James H. Coyne: Review

Custodial History: These papers were collected as part of a comprehensive study into the life and career of Colonel Thomas Talbot, the early nineteenth-century settlement agent whose authority extended over much of what is now southwestern Ontario. The research was conducted by Guy St-Denis in various archival repositories with the intention of publishing a new biography of Talbot. After the project was discontinued, the photocopied documents were preserved in hopes of being useful to future scholars of Talbot and his settlement. The files were compiled ca. 1985-2003.

Scope and Content: Photocopy of an article: "Review of Talbot's History", from the St. Thomas Times, July 11, 1903. It gives an overview of the Montreal Gazette recently printing a two column review of the life of Colonel Talbot from papers collected and arranged by Mr. James H. Coyne, of St. Thomas.
