| | LEVEL OF DESCRIPTION: | Collection | | No.: | PR0968 | | TITLE: | Héritage Franco-albertain collection | | CREATOR: | Héritage Franco-albertain | | DATE RANGE: | 1895 -1975 | | EXTENT: | 116 negatives and other material
Also includes 0.03 m of textual records, 10 photographs and 12 photographic postcards. | | ADMINISTRATIVE | | HISTORY/BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: | Héritage franco-albertain was a project begun in 1979 in association with Les Blés d'Or, a folk dance group from Saint-Paul, Alberta. Dedicated to preserving francophone culture in Alberta, the Héritage franco-albertain project aimed to compile from across the province different types of French-Canadian culture, including songs, dances, recipes, autobiographies, histories, and photographs. Much of their work was recorded on videocassette. In March 1981, the Saint-Paul French Culture Centre, where the project was centred, was destroyed by fire, and much of the research was also destroyed. A publication, Voix Albertaines: Supplément Français à Voices of Alberta: A Survey of Oral History Completed in Alberta up to 1980, identifies the oral histories collected and made available through the efforts of the project. | | SCOPE AND CONTENT: | The collection covers the period ca. 1895-1975 and consists of some of the records collected through the Héritage franco-albertain project in the effort to preserve French-Albertan songs, dances, recipes, autobiographies, histories, and photographs. The collection includes a biography of Alphonse Corbière, a photocopy of a 1910 letter from Alexandre Mahé, photocopies of a poem and traditional songs collected by Henri Hétu, a photocopied history of François-Xavier Gauthier's family, photocopied financial reports from the Legal parish and photographs from a number of different individuals: Bertha Lafrance, M. and Mme. Olivier Lafleur, Zéa Piquette, Maurice Langlais, Sister Antoinette Trudel, Monseigneur Raymond Roy, Diane Rémillard, M. and Mme.
