Summary
Lynne Rodier is an historian in the Outaouais region.
For this first appearance on the podcast (see episode 4), Lynne tells us about the life and career of Nicholas Sparks, the owner of the land known as Bytown, which later came to be known as Ottawa.
Nicholas Sparks arrived in the Outaouais region from Ireland in 1816. He worked for P. Wright and Sons and married Philemon Wright Jr widow Sarah Olmstead after Philemon Wright Jr tragic death from a horse carriage accident. The marriage cemented Sparks leadership in the lumber trade on both sides of the river, while also owing most of the land then known as Bytown.
