Roots to Rebellion 

​

There were many community-changing events in Upper Canada in the 1830s. This virtual exhibit explores the early years of Pickering and how the settlers from this small farming community were instrumental in the Rebellion of 1837. Events such as the Abolition Act of 1834, the Underground Railroad, the Upper Canadian Rebellion of 1837, and United Empire Loyalists settlement will be explored throughout the website.
