History
Colonel Charles Walkem was a royal surveyor with the Royal Engineers, and later part of the Militia Department in Upper Canada. In the middle of the 19th century, he set about enquiring as to what amount of property belonging to the British War Office still existed in Upper Canada. As part of his enquiry, he obtained statements and conducted interviews with elderly Kingston engineers on their recollections of structural details and costs of Kingston fortifications and buildings back in the 18th century.
