Reminders of Home
Benares Historic House, Visitor Centre
September 1 to January 7, 2011
Like the Harris family who first moved here from Britain in 1836, many people living in
Mississauga have come from another country. We have asked our staff and volunteers who
immigrated to Canada or who are first generation, to share some cherished item that tells of
their heritage. These ‘reminders of home’ often help give people a sense of belonging to a
community or to their past.
