Venison enough for a long winter. Harry Palmer (left) and party.<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. Many impromptu photos were taken over years, some of which found their way into collections. Outdoor scenes like this are of interest, especially when a known professional photographer like Mr Palmer is included. A couple of months earlier I did a post on another Palmer – Eli<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our fairs and auctions often have old photographs, some outdoors or work related. Have a look at our fair and auction this fall. The fair will be held on October 20th at the Trident Hall. A poster will go up closer to the show. We plan to hold a fall auction a few weeks later on an as yet undetermined date.<\/p>\n

The stories of photographer Harry Palmer of Dundalk and his photographer son, John H Palmer were written by Ev Roseborough and published in issue 15-3 (Nov-Dec 1989). The story of Harry begins, “Just south of the original town of Dundalk, situated at the highest point of Ontario’s snow belt, was the site chosen by the first Palmers for their homestead.<\/p>\n

“Following marriage in 1875, their son Charles Palmer built a log house across the road from his parents’ cabin, beside what is now #10 Highway, and moved his bride, the former Anne Hastings of Hamilton, into the new domicile.<\/p>\n

“Three years later Anne Palmer went to Toronto for the birth of a son, Harry, and promptly returned to Dundalk.<\/p>\n

“Within a year the new family moved to the town which was being re-located to an area beside the newly-laid Owen Sound to Toronto railway line.<\/p>\n

“Their new home was brick. Charles Palmer established an apiary and earned a reputation as a breeder of fast horses, remaining there until he died at the age of 86. He was the first Justice of the Peace and Town Assessor.”<\/p>\n
