A Study of Surface-mounted Door Locks from a Number of Archaeological Sites in Canada
A variety of surface-mounted door locks and some of their accessories are described and illustrated. For the most part these date from the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. In addition, a brief history of door locks and an extensive glossary of terms for the description of door locks are presented. There is some general indication of dating, but for the most part a specific date is not attached to individual examples of a lock form.
The Ceramics of Lower Fort Garry
The ceramics from Lower Fort Garry were retrieved from 31 operations, most of which represent individual structures. The variety of ceramic objects includes tableware, commercial containers, storage vessels, kitchen ware, flowerpots, decorative objects, dolls and toy dishes. The largest group, represented by the tableware, was manufactured in England and dates from ca. 1836 to the beginning of the 20th century. A large percentage of this pottery was made by the Spode/Copeland company of Staffordshire. With the exception of several commercial containers manufactured in England, the remainder of the collection is unmarked. On the basis of their function, decoration and manufacturing techniques, they are dated to the second half of the 19th century. Their country of origin is not known, though many of the decorative articles appear to be continental. All the pottery discussed in this report is believed to have been associated with the fort during its Hudson's Bay Company occupation.
