This is the Ottawa Byward market scene that greeted my great-grand-parents; my grand-parents and my parents on both sides.  My father was born in 1899.

The market was opened in Bytown 1848 - (the year my great-grand-parents arrived from Wexford, Ireland) - Bytown was later to become "Ottawa",  the Capital of Canada.
