Biographical history
To date, little is known about the Code family aside from the knowledge that they resided in Smith Falls, Ontario at the end of the 19th century. Samuel Barber and T.F. Code both, attended the University of Toronto's School of Practical Science to study civil engineering. Samuel Barber Code graduated from the program in 1907. There is no further mention of T.F. Code. The material attributed to Thomas Singleton contains deeds of land and a record of financial transactions both of which suggest he was a wealthy resident of Smith Falls. It is assumed Samuel Barber Code and T.F. Code were related, but from the existing material no connection has been made to Thomas Singleton.
Custodial history
The Code Family fonds was donated to Queen's University Archives by George W. Bracken, an Ontario land surveyor, in December 1995. A map from the office of Samuel Barber Code entitled; New Commercial and General Survey of Ontario, was transferred to the Queen's University Map Library on 14 November, 1995.
Scope and content
The fonds consists of deeds to land, diaries, diplomas, insurance policies, journals, payroll ledgers, and research notes.
