Boys' School: Irish Montreal

John Loye Dept: - Gazette, Monday, Jan. 24, 1944, according to Montreal Gazette. That said, a January 1944 story he wrote for The Gazette about St. Ann's Boys' School undeniably plays a little loose with dates and among the many schools whose names are of long association with the city of Montreal, that of the St. Anne's Boys' School on Young St. is one of the most locally famous. It would be churlish to question the late John Loye's grasp of Griffintown's history. The neighbourhood was the heart of Irish Montreal for more than a century, and in Loye, who died in 1962, it arguably has had no more ardent a chronicler. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
