An article from the The Welland Tribune and Telegraph, 11 July 1922, describes what we are trying to present with this website.

    Great site!

    I enjoyed reading the articles and was looking for info on one company that was operating in Welland many years ago. I have a wooden barrel made by MMP Co. Welland. It is stamped into the barrel just below the handle. I had a drain spigot so I’m assuming liquid of some sort.

    Anyone have information about them?

    Feel free to contact me.

    Good Morning Willy

    Thank you for the positive comment. At this time I have no knowledge of the MMP Company but will keep it on file for research. B

    I have a number of pictures & postcards of the area. Will you have a place for people to post questions & pictures?
