GAMELIN, P. Alfred (1863-c. 1935) was born on 28 August 1863 and was a native of Montreal. He studied the architectural profession there and in the United States. He began to practice under his own name in 1892 and formed a partnership in Monteal with Joseph E. Huot in early 1895. They became '.....especially well-known for their excellent work in planning and superintending the buildings of residences' but later dissolved their firm by mutual agreement in December 1899 (C.R., xi, 24 Jan. 1900, 3). Gamelin then continued to work alone until after 1916 (biog. and list of works in The Gazette [Montreal, 5 June 1897, 15; inf. Canada, 1901 Census, Montreal, No. 176, Saint Jacques Ward B-15, 11)
