The War of 1812 - Celebrating the 200th Anniversary in 2012
Anniversary of the War of 1812 as related to Brantford, Brant County and Six Nations
Real People's History, along with its many historical links, will be a primary source of information related to the War of 1812. Over the following weeks and months RPH will provide updates as they are researched, validated and posted for your benefit.
Brantford as a city did not exist then but Six Nations Territory did and was very vibrant. Six Nations Territory had to be traversed regularly as it was on a main route between Detroit, the Niagara Peninsula, and York (Toronto). This resulted in some very interesting activities.
Teachers and Educators - Join us in the Discovery
The War of 1812 is very much a part of your Social Studies Curriculum. Teachers will find very valuable and relevant information on this site that in some cases may have us "rewrite" our local histories. We will provide written material, maps, and other related visuals.
A very dedicated and strong team of experts will be reviewing all historic material relevant to our respective communities in our archives and from other parts of the continent.
