About

John Davis Barnett fonds
J. Davis Barnett (1846-1926) was an engineer with the Grand Trunk Railway in Canada. He also built a huge library on his many interests and was a noted bibliophile. His library and archives were donated to Western Libraries in 1918, with him acting as our first 'librarian' cataloguing his own collection until 1921 when ill health overtook him.
