Judge it!
In 1923, 110 young Armenian boys, aged 8-12,
were brought to Canada to live on Cedar Vale Farm in Georgetown
where they were trained in farming with the aim of becoming Canadian farmers.
The Georgetown Boys documents a significant moment in the history of Georgetown and Canada.
It was "Canada's noble experiment" --
Canada's first international humanitarian effort.
Many of these orphans grew up and settled in Southern Ontario,
reuniting with their friends as often as they could,
forming a tight-knit community that continues to this day among their descendants.
