Jun., 2015: Jesse Bryson Fonds
Former local politician, historian and conservationist, Jesse Bryson (1921-1997) was a heavily involved member of the Vaughan community. Holding the position of Councillor and Deputy Reeve between 1957-1965, Bryson was largely involved in numerous Vaughan and Regional Committees both during and after his Municipal Council term, with his primary interest in the restoration and conservation of buildings, artifacts and records relating to the history of Vaughan Township. The Bryson fonds spans the years 1841-1990 (predominately from 1905-1976), and contains textual records, photo prints, postcards and maps. The textual records in the collection consist of Vaughan Township Council Minutes, voters lists, reports, legal documents relating to Bryson’s property located on the east half of Concession 7, Lot 34, as well as posters, personal correspondence and newspaper clippings and show Bryson’s heavy involvement in local programs and municipal politics during his lifetime.
