The video of the October 2020 Feature Talk webinar is now available in the Members Only videos section – Soldier, Settler, Sinner: The Remarkable Journey of Charles MacDonald (Jane Simpson)    

 

 

Saturday, 14 November  / 10:00 am to 11:30 am

 

Philip G. Winkelaar searched school records, memoirs, official histories, church and military records to document the lives of those remembered on brass plaques at Knox Presbyterian Church, Ottawa. He will talk about his research and how he brought to life those who are generally unremarked but who are remembered every Remembrance Sunday. These stories allow us to solemnly declare: “At the Going Down of the Sun, and In the Morning, We Will Remember Them.”

 

Philip was a physician, served in the regular and reserve armed forces and has attended Knox Presbyterian Church Ottawa for 24 years. This research resulted in publication in 2018 of a book titled Going Down of the Sun. More information on the events page. To register, click here.
