Page 10 Friday, November 17, 1978 Russell Township has _ the distinction of being chosen as the location for a National Capital Region survey of heritage build- ings. Credit for this unique opport- unity to research our local architectural heritage must go to the ladies of the Russell Village Women's Institute who, years ago, began writing the Tweedsmuir History. Mrs. Hom- er McKeown began the onerous task of compiling historical data and since 1973, Ina Kincaid has taken over the curatorship of the books (See "Thumbnail History, Castor Review, Oct., 1977). These impressive books are available at the Russell Public Library. The November meeting of the W. I. featured a preview of the Ne Scrapbook. By Suzanne Schroeter Spotlight on Heritage NCC project and a slide present- ation by guest speaker Rolf Latte, chief of the NCC heritage section. Mr. Latte displayed a map of the portion of Russell Township within the national Capital area indicating every building and its corresponding index number. Accompanying the map is a typed register of the buildings, listing index number, owner (if known), location and type of structure (church, house, cemet- ary, etc.). By the end of the 1978 fiscal year, Mr. Lattie indicated that all of the township's heritage buildings will have been photographed. Next year the project is to continue, focusing on further documentat- ion and dating. What is a heritage building? The Mill Street heritage home of Dick and Shirley Sherwood ~ Mr. Lattie quickly pointed out that a heritage building is not necessarily an antique (100 years old) but must combine historical authenticity, typical construction, of the period, and must be in good condition. The purpose of the NCC project is to preserve our heritage buildings for future generations. Copies of the NCC map and register are available from Mrs. Kincaid at the Library. I predict many local citizen groups, newcomers, churches, and scho- ols will show a great deal of interest in this survey of Russell, Embrun, and rural heritage structures. Before the snow falls, why not take a heritage walk around your community?
