Jack Quinlan fonds

  • MG 593
  • Fonds
  • 1935-1953 (inclusive); 1938-1944 (predominant).

This fonds contains materials relating to the life of Jack Quinlan. It includes photographs of his years as a student at the University of Saskatchewan, but predominantly reflects his time with the RCAF. It is notable for the letters of condolence sent to his family following his death, which provide clear evidence of the extent to which one family’s loss was felt throughout the community.
