Notes |
- Jean Baptiste Foisy operated a tobacco store with pool tables while living with his family around the corner at 150 Cathcart Street. He was the son of Alexis Foisy, one of Bytown’s
first tinsmiths. The family’s skills may be refl ected in the building’s prominent metal cornice, restored by current owners, Donna Kearns and Peter Thomas Gaby.
La tabagie de Jean Baptiste Foisy (1899) : À partir de 1901, Jean Baptiste Foisy opérait une tabagie avec des tables de billard et sa famille résidait côté, au 150 rue Cathcart. Il était le
fils d’Alexis Foisy, l’un des premiers ferblantiers de Bytown. Les compétences de cette famille se refl ètent dans la principale corniche métallique, restaurée par les propriétaires actuels Donna Kearns et Peter Thomas Gaby [2]
