The Montreal History Group is happy to welcome Vincent Masciotra among its ranks. Vincent Masciotra is a graduate student in history at McGill University. His M.A. research is focussed on aspects of the business careers of Montreal brothers Stanley and Abner Bagg who were active from the 1810s to the 1840s. He was a member of the Montreal Business History Project from 1983 to 1987 and took part in a bibliographical project led by Blaine Baker and Brian Young that resulted in the publication of Sources in the Law Library of McGill University for a Reconstruction of the Legal Culture of Quebec, 1760-1890 (MBHP, 1987).
