J. H. E. Fitzallen fonds

  • GPR gpr-2903
  • Fonds
  • 1917-1918

The fonds consists of correspondence written and received by J.H.E. Fitzallen at his place of business in the Village of Grande Prairie from 1917 to 1918. The major part of the correspondence is with insurance companies and individuals holding insurance policies. There is also a good volume of letters from various departments of the Government of Alberta. The letters give details about the buildings which are being insured, many of which are in Grande Prairie, and of the people who own the buildings. At the time, Mr. Fitzallen was secretary-treasurer for the Village and some of the letters are on Village stationary, giving the illusion that it is Village business. It appears he was recycling old stationary when making carbon copies of his own correspondence as the concern his business and personal life, not village affairs. There are also two block plans showing the stores along Richmond Avenue, and a 1917 agreement with The Northern Assurance Company Ltd. of England which lays out commissions and responsibilities between the Company and the broker. The personal records includes Mr. Spencer's contract with the Village of Grande Prairie, a contract with Charles Spencer to build their house, a personal letter from a friend in Vancouver, and dentist bills for Mr. & Mrs. Fitzallen.
