This category is used for profiles of members of the Beaver Club The Beaver Club was a gentleman's dining club founded in 1785 by the mostly English speaking fur-trading 'barons' of Montreal, most from the North West Company and many the predecessors of Montreal's Square Milers. The club continued to meet until 1804, and there was a resurgence of interest between 1807 and 1824, but when Sir George Simpson tried to revive its traditions in 1827 it was doomed to failure.
