The first issue of The Officers’ Quarters was published as “The Officers’ Quarterly” in 1985, as a newsletter, and emerged as the York-Sunbury Historical Society’s annual periodical over time and through the efforts of the Board, local historians, and students in the Fredericton area. The Officers’ Quarters is a non-peer reviewed publication, offering short articles that document the history and heritage of the greater Fredericton region and those who live there, as well as documenting the history of the Fredericton Region Museum itself. While not all past issues are available digitally, copies may be consulted for research purposes at either the Fredericton Region Museum or the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick, MC300 York-Sunbury Historical Society Fond. For additional information about past issues of The Officers’ Quarters, or other York-Sunbury Historical Society publications, please contact the museum directly.
