Did you know that Lucy Maud Montgomery, famed author of Anne of Green Gables, lived in Norval for 9 years, from 1936 - 1935? 2008 is the 100th anniversary of the first pub- lishing of Anne and the village will celebrate with the opening of a museum dedicated to Montgomerys life and works. The centerpiece of the collection is a display of her personal photo- graphs taken by her during her time in the village and donated by the University of Guelph. Already famous, Montgomery arrived in Norval eighty two years ago with her husband Presbyterian minister Rev. Ewan Macdonald -- who had been appointed minister of Norval and Union Presbyterian Churches -- and two sons, Chester and Stuart. In addition to running the manse, mothering two growing boys, teaching Sunday School and her other parish duties, she became a member of the Norval Choral Society, Norval Womens Institute, director and performer of Norvals Olde Tyme Concerts, held at the Anglican Parish Hall. As well, she found time to host garden parties and attend speaking engagements across the country. While living in Norval Montgomery published the following books: The Blue Castle, 1926, Emilys Quest, 1927, Magic for Marigold, 1929, A Tangled Web, 1931, Pat of Silver Bush, 1933, Courageous Women, with Marian Keith and M.B. McKinley, and Mistress Pat in 1935. Hope to see you this Saturday! 509 Guelph St., Norval 905-873-4140 NORVAL PLUMBING CENTRE INC.
