Notice biographique
Horatio Nelson Garrett was the fifth or eight children born to William Robert and Abigail Garrett. William Robert Garrett owned a ditillery and brewery on King Street as well as a number of properties about town, and upon his death Horatio seems to have been placed in charge of the management of the rather large estate. Upon Horatio's death on July 17, 1871, the estate was managed by the Kirkpatrick Nickle law firm for a number of years.
Historique de la conservation
This sous-fonds forms part of the Kirkpatrick-Nickle legal collection. The documents came from the law firm of Nickle and Nickle, which was founded by Thomas Kirkpatrick in 1828, and which continued under various names (Kirkpatrick Nickle) and with various partners until 1968. The Horatio Nelson Garrett estate papers were deposited, along with the papers of other clients of the firm, in Queen's University Archives during the 1960's.
