The Chateau de Ramezay
Claude de Ramezay, eleventh Governor of Montreal, ap-
pointed 1703, was born in France 1657, came to Canada in
1685, with a number of other young officers, in the suite of
Governor de Denonville. He was then a lieutenant in de
Troye's company of Marine troops, which later took part
in the expedition to Hudson's Bay. His promotion was rapid,
being captain in 1687, later colonel, then commandant of
troops and finally Governor of the Town and its district.
In 1687 he took part in the expedition against the Iro-
quois and in 1690, when Phipps appeared before Quebec, he
brought over 800 men from Montreal for the defence of the
former town.
History tells of the spirited defence made by Frontenac
and his gallant officers, the latter, no doubt, being encouraged
by the bright smiles of some of Quebec's fair daughters who
it seems, lost no time in rewarding their brave defenders with
their heart and hand. Scarcely had the last of Phipp's fleet
disappeared around Point Levi, than de Ramezay led to the
altar Melle Marie-Charlotte Denys, a daughter of Denys de la
Ronde, one of the wealthiest families of Canada. His com-
panion in arms, de Vaudreuil, at the same time married Louise
daughter of Pierre de Joybert de Soulanges. Could they have
seen into the future their happiness would have been clouded
by sorrow, for it was destined that a son of de Ramezay should
be the one to open the gates of Quebec to the English in 1759
and a son of de Vaudreuil should do likewise, at Montreal, the
following year.
De Ramezay was one of the most prominent men of this
time, occupying an official position in Canada for a term
exceeding forty years. He was Seigneur de la Gesse, de Mon-
tigny, et Boisfieurent in France, and in Canada was Seigneur
de Monnoir and de Ramezay, Knight of the Military Order of
St. Louis, Governor of Montreal, and Commandant of all the
militia in the country, and was administrator of the Governor-
Generalship during the two years' absence of de Vaudreuil in
France.
The Chateau was built in 1705. The neighborhood was
then the fashionable part of the town, and was occupied by
the Baron de Longueuil, the Contrecoeurs, d'Eschambaults,
d'Aillebousts and Madame de Portneuf, the widow of Baron
4
Becancourt. Situated on a hill, and opposite to the magnifi-
cent garden of the Jesuits, this plain unembellished house had
an open view to the river front. The vaults were of ancient
castle construction. Even the attic floors were of stone slabs.
Under de Ramezay's regime, 1703 to 1724, this venerable
edifice was the hall of entertainment of the illustrious of the
country. The many expeditions to the distant fur fields, the
voyages of discovery of new lands, the councils of war, the
military expeditions, the conferences with the Indians, the
annual fairs and fur trading market, attracted to the shores of
Montreal, not only the Governor-General, the Intendant, and
their suites, but a considerable number of the most important
people of the country, including all classes of society. To one
and all the portals of this hospitable mansion were ever open.
To the lowly Indian and his squaw, and to the exalted noble-
man and his consort, the noble and beneficient Ramezay and
his family showed equal attention. Fearless to the Indian or
enemy, his bravery and charity were equally exemplified in
the personal care and attention he and his family gave to the
Suffering citizens of Montreal during the pest which devastated
the town in 1721.
De Ramezay died in 1724, and his family sold the Chateau
to the Compagnie des Indes in 1745. The latter retained pos-
session until the cession, in 1763, when it was bought by Wm.
Grant, who, in turn, disposed of it to the English Government
for the sum of two thousand guineas. It thus became again
the residence of the Governors, and remained such up to 1849.
In 1775–6, the Chateau was the Headquarters for the Con-
tinental Army under Montgomery, and in the spring of 1776,
there came Benjamin Franklin, Carroll of Carrollton, and
Samuel Chase, envoys sent by Congress to influence the French
Canadians to join the colonies in the revolt against British
rule. Then came Benedict Arnold, who occupied the Chateau
for several weeks. The mark of the old reception dais is still
seen on the salon walls.
Lord Metcalfe was the last resident governor, but for some
years after his establishment in a new government house the
Chateau was used for departmental offices. When the govern-
ment was withdrawn from Montreal, the Chateau served
several purposes. For some years courts were held here, and
later the Normal School, then courts again.
In 1894 the Chateau was sold by the Provincial Govern-
ment and purchased by the Corporation of the City of Mont-
real, for the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society which in
1895, obtained the building for the purpose of founding their
Historical Portrait Gallery and Museum.
The Antiquarian and Numismatic
Society of Montreal
In the month of December, 1862, several gentlemen of
Montreal, desirous of cultivating the study of Numismatics,
some of whom had been meeting informally for a couple of
years at the house of Mr. James Ferrier, judging the forma-
tion of a properly organized association as the most efficacious
means of attaining that end, formed “The Numismatic Society
of Montreal.” The seal of this society was the obverse of the
Canadian bronze cent, with an outer circle inscribed “Societe
Numismatique de Montreal. Fondee 1862.”
In January, 1866, the name of the society was changed to
that of the “Numismatic and Antiquarian Society of Mont-
real,” and a new seal was adopted, viz.: a round shield quar-
tered by a tomahawk, and calumet, bearing an antique lamp,
an Athenian coin with the head of Minerva, a Canadian cent
with head of Victoria and a Beaver; the shield encircled with
a garter bearing the words: “Numismaticae et Archelogicae
Marianopolitanae Societatis Sigillum.”
In 1912 the charter of incorporation was amended by Act
of the Provincial Legislature and the name of the Society
changed to “The Antiquarian and Numismatic Society of
Montreal.”
In July, 1872, the Society began the publication of “The
Canadian Antiquarian and Numismatic Journal.” Up to the
present time three series, making a total of twenty-four volumes
have been published. It was this Society, acting upon the pro-
jects of individual members of it, that first suggested the
project of celebrating the 250th anniversary of the founding
of Montreal, and proposed three things in order to shed more
lustre on so noteworthy an event. First, the erecting of a
monument to the memory of Chomedy de Maisonneuve, the
founder of our city; second, the saving of the Chateau de
Ramezay from the destruction with which it was threatened;
third, an historical exhibition by which the public might be
enlightened regarding the rare and precious things still to be
found amongst us and which the Society is endeavoring to
prevent being lost to the country for ever.
The Society succeeded in bringing all three of these
projects to a successful issue, and the result of its labors in
the Chateau may be read in the pages of this catalogue.
