Topic: Ferdinand Hamelin


  
 Hamelins of the Grondines
The Hamelin family helped fund the voyage, according to the story my father Rodney told me. In return, the family supposedly was granted a tract of land at what became Grondines, 35 miles south and west of Quebec along the St. Lawrence River, about a third of the way to what would become Montreal.
Louis and Francois Hamelin were brothers, born in St. Mathurin de la Dagueniere, a small community on the edge of Angers on the River Maine, at the confluence of the Loire, in the ancient French province of Anjou.
Some genealogists insist that Nicolas Hamelin, father of the brothers according to the 19th-century genealogist Tanguay, was born in Quebec around 1620, and married there in 1640.

 RE BELLEROSE
George Hamelin swore that he lived but five months with Rosalie Giroux subsequent to the marriage and had but one child by her, a daughter who died in infancy.
The brevity of Hamelin's cohabitation with Rosalie Giroux is confirmed by the evidence of William Giroux a band member and father of Rosalie Giroux.
I accept the evidence of William Giroux - confirmed as it is by that of witnesses Ben Potskin, Jasper Bellerose, Oliver Ward and George Hamelin, all Driftpile Band members, that from the date of her separation from George Hamelin to the date of her death Rosalie Giroux lived in a common-law relationship with William Bellerose.

 W.L. Clowes on the 1854-56 Russian ("Crimean") War (1/4)
Osman should have been warned of his danger by the appearance and behaviour of the hostile scouts, and should have sought refuge elsewhere; but, trusting to the protection which he supposed to be afforded him by the presence of the allied fleets in the neighbourhood, he remained where he was.
The ships of the line were retained off Kavarna to cover the projected landing, and to protect the base, while the steam frigates of the two squadrons were despatched to the neighbourhood of Sebastopol to watch the motions of the Russian fleet, and to prevent interference from that quarter.
The commands of Napier and Parseval-Deschènes in the north, and of Dundas and Hamelin in the south, were made up mainly of craft of the heaviest draught and armament, and largely of sailing ships with necessarily limited powers of manoeuvring in narrow waters.

Ferdinand was like the uncouth swain in Lycidas.
We embarked again, surrounded by an admiring throng, at the bridge where the main street crossed a little stream, and paddled up it, through a score of back yards and a stretch of reedy meadows, where the wild and tame ducks fed together, tempting the sportsman to sins of ignorance.
"What is that song which you are singing, Ferdinand?" asks the lady, as she hears him humming behind her in the canoe.

 MTV News - The Stills Look To Britney Spears In Picking New Single
Hamelin even wrote one song, "In the Beginning," while he was in a hotel lobby in Reykjavík, Iceland.
But the Stills found comfort from the cold in the new direction songs such as "Halo the Harpoon" and "Oh Shoplifter" were taking, as Hamelin and crew exchanged the noir pop of Logic for something a little bigger (see " 'Control Freaks' The Stills Try Not To Spoil Their Own Songs").
Still, Hamelin's holding out for releasing what he considers to be a better song, "She's Walking Out," as a single — he says he doesn't want it to be Without Feathers' first or even second single, because the song is "too slow." Plus, it's another song about winter.

 Montreal Mirror : Music : The Stills
There are different ways of tapping into that,” says Dave Hamelin, the former drummer of Montreal band the Stills, now on guitar and splitting vocal and songwriting duties with Tim Fletcher.
It would be simple to say that the Stills have left the finicky, frosty terrain of Interpol, Franz Ferdinand and the likes for warmer climes, the grand, shambolic realm of the Arcade Fire, Flaming Lips and so forth.
But a more evocative way to put it would be that whereas their 2003 debut Logic Will Break Your Heart was a small-screen production etched in precise fl and white, the brand new follow-up Without Feathers sprawls out in widescreen, pulsing with colour.

Just as news of Montreal's erupting music underground began to reach international ears, five young Montreal musicians did the unthinkable: They moved to Toronto.
And while the band invites no end of comparative analogy, they flat out defy definitive pigeonholing: as students of musical history, they are here to learn and advance, not rewrite.
Bassist Dominic asserts that, "It's a coincidence that we fit in with many of the '80s-influenced bands that are popular right now - The Killers, Hot Hot Heat, Franz Ferdinand, whatever - but we're not copying anybody.

 General Collections -- Library of Congress Geography and Maps: An Illustrated Guide
In the mid-1830s, Adm. Jacques Hamelin, Director of the Depôt from 1832 until 1839, presented to the Naval Observatory in Washington, the predecessor of the U.S. Navy's Hydrographic Office, a set of French nautical charts bound in thirty-nine volumes that were subsequently transferred to the Library of Congress.
The 1816 appointment of Ferdinand Hassler, a Swiss mathematician and surveyor, to head the U.S. Coast Survey, which had been established in 1807 by Thomas Jefferson, marked the beginning of significant charting activity in this country.
Although its responsibilities have been expanded to include the maintenance of the nation's infrastructure of geodetic control stations and the production of aeronautical charts, the agency is still producing nautical charts of the United States under the name of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey.

These influences are evident on their album, with its jangly guitars and the steady, driving backbeat provided by drummer Dave Hamelin.
Vocalist/guitarist Tim Fletcher moans his way through the songs like a slightly more upbeat Thom Yorke (of Radiohead) and the subjects addressed in the lyrics range from the effects of a night of chemical indulgence to the American tradition of solving problems with violence.
The topic of lyrics is an interesting one, since the Stills have developed a highly unusual arrangement in which the drummer, Hamelin, writes 75% of the lyrics sung by his long-time friend Fletcher.
