114th Brock's Rangers ~ C.E.F.

"Researcher seeking information, photos, letters, journals, militia relating to the 114 Brock's Rangers and the men of Haldimand County and Six Nations who served in WWI. Also seeking information relating to the local Women's Patriotic Leagues and Sock League from WWI. For more information contact: Ben (519) 409-0302 or Brocksranger@rogers.com "

One of the pleasures in a used bookshop is the researcher. Historical researchers and collectors typically frequent archives, libraries, antique shops, flea markets and used bookshops. (Not to mention e-Bay.) It is with pleasure that we pass along to our readers the above recently posted notice.
We first met Ben two years ago when he helped identify a WWII medal found on our family farm in Canborough, Ontario. When not working, participating in battle reenactments or hanging out in the Haldimand County Museum, Ben can often be found ~ where else? ~ in the military section of The Neat Little Bookshop. Please give Ben a call if you think you have something of interest.
