In 2006 pupils from local Ryedale schools created a documentary on local families emigrating to Canada during the 19th century
This superb film is expertly put together. Also on this DVD are some short films which show just how various parts of the documentary were made. In all it is a very moving and enlightening account of life in Ryedale in the 19th century, and the many families who left here to seek a new life and adventure in Canada.
A poignant story of life and the struggle for survival.
