Fonctions : These postcards are from a trip Annie Harris (1882-1986) took to Europe in 1903. They had been stored in post card album accessioned under 2005.4.183 which belonged to Annie Harris. She went on her six month educational trip to Belgium, Holland, France, England, and Italy in 1903 where she celebrated her twenty-first birthday. As part of a 'Grand Tour', Annie was accompanied by Dora Labatt (family member of the Labatt Brewing Company), Edna Leonard, and Canadian artist Caroline Farncomb (1859-1951). Farncomb acted as their chaperone throughout the trip. Items donated by Barbara Sayers Larson. Barbara Larson is the daughter of Annie Harris (1882-1986) and Beverly Sayers (1883-1976) and granddaughter of Arthur (1843-1932) and Mary (1859-1954) Harris. Barbara was born January 27, 1920 and was the youngest of three children. Barbara and her siblings, Geoffrey Sayers (1907-1997) and Dora Sayers Caro (1915-2004) donated Benares to the Ontario Heritage Foundation in 1968 after inheriting it from their aunt, Naomi Harris (1883-1968). Many of the items donated by Barbara originally belonged to her mother or Aunt Naomi and came from Benares. Barbara lived in a log cabin originally given to her mother by her grandparents at 1723 Birchwood Drive. She still maintains a close tie with Benares and is now living in Kelowna, British Columbia, with her daughter.
