RENE HACKSTETTER SHARES RARE GLIMPSE INTO CHAPLEAU HISTORY

Rene Hackstetter kindly provided three of the following very interesting historical photos of Chapleau, Ontario, in the early years of the 20th Century. Rene's father, Dr. Karl A. Hackstetter taught at Chapleau High School from 1954 to 1957, and was its principal from 1963 to 1966. Thanks Rene.

The fourth photo, hand coloured, was taken in 1914 and sent to me by a friend.

As you examine the photos, take a moment to jot down buildings and locations you recognize. Send me an email at mj.morris@live.ca The results will be posted. Should be interesting. I have already started.
