If you're interested in Guelph history, my book Guelph Stories has chapters on much, much more than the familiar accounts of John Galt and Col. John McCrae. It's at The Bookshelf and the Guelph Museum gift shop, or you can order a signed copy from me at [email protected]. Ed Butts Guelph memories

1924 map of the Ontario Agricultural (now University of Guelph). War Memorial Hall was a new building and Johnston Hall hadn't yet replaced the Admin building. Several significant buildings on the map are unlabelled: can you identify them? Found corresponding photos for most of the labels. I maxed out the photos allowed so no Massey Hall picture and I couldn't find a photo of the Piggery. Photos courtesy Guelph Museum, Wellington County Museum &

Just got this print from an auction in Boston. It's from the 1874 Canadian Illustrated News. A bonus wasthe label on the back; it was framed in Guelph on Carden Street in the 1960's!
