Abstract
Millicent Mary Chaplin, nee Reeve (1790-1858), the wife of Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Chaplin of the Coldstream Guards, came to Lower Canada in 1838 when her husband was posted to British North America. During the next four years the Chaplins travelled widely in the Canadas, and Millicent Mary Chaplin painted landscapes of Ottawa, Quebec City and the Canadian Maritimes, as well as depictions of the local people, and commented in her diary on Canadian and American habits.
