As Others See Us
"This biographical miscellany, AS OTHERS SEE US, is the story of but one branch of Clan Fraser, and some of the connections. It is aimed at recording how and when the ancestors of a large Scotch family came to Canada, established themselves on the land, multiplied, dispersed though not all - and where a few of the fifth and sixth generations are living today. It is not only genealogical charting, nor altogether about people. It treats also of related circumstances and events, some of historical worth not knownto have been recorded elsewhere - the early navigation of Lake St. Francis, its ships and the men who sailed them; some of the primitive rural industries, the asheries and the potash-makers, the cedar leaf oil distilling, the crossroads cheese factories, and the hopyards; and the history of a few of the first Scotch churches in Dundee and Glengarry. Five Fraser brothers left lnvemess-shire shortly after the close of the war of 1812, chose their locations in a portion of the Indian Lands of St. Regis that became the township of Dundee, the most westerly comer of Lower Canada, one of the last areas on the south shore of the St. Lawrence river opened to white settlers." __P. 6.
