Charlie: Just a guess. Would the Chamber of Commerce or the Legion branch be places to ask?

Thanks Jon -

Nope - this was traded/swapped off somewhere in the area.

Charlie: Yes you did. It is here: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=22294

No idea about where the 17 pdr went though. I wish it went here.

Isnt the Brantford Museum a DND Museum and if it is, doesn't the 17 pdr belong to the Crown? Could someone living nearby visit or phone the Museum and ask where it is? I think the same Museum had a 25pdr, is it still there?
