| HISTORY of the Foran House: |
| Jean Delisle (1850s): Jean Delisle, a lawyer who settled in |
| Aylmer in the early 1850s, used this wooden house--built |
| with 35-centimeter-thick hand-hewn logs (which can still be |
| seen in the kitchen)--as his law office. |
| John Murphy (mid-1860s): John Murphy was a shoemaker who |
| set up his shop in the southwest corner of the residence. |
| According to sources, he also worked for the river shipping |
| company Union Forwarding as a boat captain and bookkeeper. |
| When the brand-new Regional Courthouse opened just a |
| stone's throw from his home, he became the first warden of |
| the prison. Mr. Murphy lived at 12 Broad for over thirty |
| years. |
| John Foran (1883): John Foran, an Irish immigrant, arrived |
| in Aylmer in 1829 and quickly became a prosperous lumber |
| merchant. His social role is also noteworthy; a justice of |
| the peace for several years, he was one of the first |
| elected councilors of the new village of Aylmer in 1847. He |
| purchased the property in 1883 to live there. |
| Recognition: The house is listed in the Répertoire du |
| patrimoine culturel du Québec, which means it has been |
| identified as a site of interest: the John Foran House has |
| recognized heritage value, but it is not automatically |
| protected by law. |
