Published purpose

The project has four main objectives: (1) to digitize the collection of approximately 5.0 linear meters of textual records and more than 2700 portraits, in relation with the pioneers and developers that came to live in Brome County and surrounding areas, beginning in 1783; (2) to preserve these documents according to accepted Canadian standards; (3) to describe and upload a visual copy of each document onto the Eastern Townships Archives Portal, accessible to the public; (4) to help renew our museum's permanent exhibits with new visual and descriptive material.
