Fonds consists of a family history and a family tree. Includes the first draft of the history, starting with a paragraph extracted from a letter written to the authors of a biography of Don Claudio Rebagliati, relating conditions in the second century A.D., in which a group of Romans emigrated to northern Italy. This group became known as the 'Rebellious Ones'. The name changed gradually from Rebellatus to Ribellari and eventually to Rebagliati. The history brings us to the present, explaining the various branches of the family, particularly those who settled in Lytton. The family tree starts from 1863, and lists 5 branches of the Rebagliati family.

CA DMA CR-32 · Fonds · ca. 1912-1930

The fonds consists of a diary kept by Frank Fisher. Part of the diary appears to be written at the time he was a bookkeeper at Deas Island in 1912; this section of the diary is written in pen. Other entries written in pencil chronicle the day to day activities of farm life. It is likely, therefore that this section was written after Mr. Fisher returned from the war and started farming Deas Island. The fonds also consists of a letter found in Mr. Fisher's diary, written to him by a relative or friend, Kathleen, living overseas.
