Two Sides to Every Story:
The Rebellion Comes to Missisquoi
PHOTO: Moore's Corner (St.Armand, QC) ca. 1870
Exhibition May 29th to October 10th, 2011
On December 6th 1837 on a cold winter's night, a skirmish between 80 Patriotes and 300 Missisquoi volunteer militiamen occurred at Moore's Corner (St. Armand).
This was the only battle that occurred in this region during the Rebellion but it was unique because despite its majority of English speaking inhabitants at the time, a large percentage of people in Missisquoi were in favour of the Patriote cause resulting in an unusual situation among the communities in this border region.
The old adage that there are 'two sides to every story' holds true in the history of the Rebellion in Missisquoi County.
