Position and Privilege: The Graham Family

Postponed to 2026

Join the Aylmer Heritage Association’s upcoming event, “Position and Privilege: The Graham Family”, a bilingual presentation by Gabriela Sanchez and Enid Page.

Among the privileged people living on the Aylmer Road at the time of the Great Depression were the Graham family, whose life and leisure activities are interpreted through their major hobbies: photography and aviation. (AHA Archives Collection P.26 Arthur Graham b&w negatives 1920s and 1930s.) 

Reinforcing Aylmer as a microcosm of the country in the 20^th century, the digital photographs in this collection are the source for our examination of the life of a family who lived on the prestigious Aylmer Road at a time of great wealth in Canada coupled with abject poverty; a society largely unaware of the massive changes to come in the aftermath of World War II.
