Part of Annals London, Ont. series

This subseries contains records from Mount St. Joseph, Motherhouse of the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of London, Ontario. It primarily consists of an autobiographical account written by Sister Mary Zimmer. On September 20, 1998, Sister Mary Zimmer moved into the southwest wing at the Mount St. Joseph. In her role as the Congregational Archivist, Sister Mary Zimmer wrote about her activities such as participating in various records management and archives workshops and attending the annual conferences for Archivists of Religious Orders. She also wrote about attending Finance Committee Meetings, General Chapter Meetings, and Assembly Meetings of the Sisters of St. Joseph of London.

This subseries also contains short summaries and drafts that chronicle the history of the Mount St. Joseph Motherhouse and the Sisters of St. Joseph within the Diocese of London. Significant topics include the construction of the Motherhouse, Ignatia Hall (an infirmary), caring for Sisters, the Medaille Program Centre for prayer, study days, and Mount St. Joseph Academy which eventually became a Guest Wing.

There is an oversize scrapbook that commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Sisters of St. Joseph being in London. It contains a program brochure, a schedule of events, a small calendar, and souvenir bookmarks, news clippings, and correspondence that congratulate the Sisters of St. Joseph on their Centennial event. There is a newspaper article titled, “Century of Service: 100 years in London, Order of St. Joseph more involved than ever in technical age,” written by Mary Jane Charters, and published by The London Free Press, on December 7, 1968. The news clippings include printed pictures of the Sisters playing basketball, practicing the drums, examining worms as a pre-med student at the University of Western Ontario, working as a pharmacist, and as a nurse at St. Joseph’s Hospital taken by photographer Ed Heal. In addition, there are photographs inside the scrapbook of the flag raising ceremony at Mount St. Joseph on December 11, 1968.
