Photograph of the old Bradford Public School on Queen and Rebecca Streets

Photograph of the old Bradford High School on Queen Street

The article accompanying this photograph gives a quick history of Bemrose Co. General Store, owned by the Bemrose brothers John and James. Their father, John, was a contractor and was well known in the town, a reputation which was passed down to the brothers. This store in the photograph was run by James Bemrose alone after his return to Bradford in 1901 in the former store of J.S. Boddy, and was in the same block as the Edmanson businesses on Holland Street (near 71 Holland St. East).
James Bemrose was a member of the Masonic Order. This photograph was taken because he was part of Bradford's Model School Board, along with other board members.

This engraving of the Bradford Model School was featured alongside its Board Members in 1906. It was located on Queen Street and was built after the old structure burned down in 1877. The Board Members included A.N. Scarrow, Rev. F. Smith, E.P. Snow, R. Neilly, James Bemrose, John Elliott (chairman), and Samuel Martin. Scarrow was the principal of the Public and Model Schools from 1902, and was President of the Bradford Library Board.
