Historique
James Colledge Pope was born in Bedeque, Prince Edward Island, on 11 June 1826. He received his early education on PEI before completing his studies in London. He married Eliza Pethick on 12 October 1852, and they had eight children. James was a merchant, ship owner, and shipbuilder in Summerside, before winning the seat in Bedeque to become a member of the Legislative Assembly in 1857. He retained this seat until 1873. Pope re-entered the legislature in 1875, but was defeated in August of the following year. In 1863, Pope took up residence in Charlottetown. James was elected premier from 1865 to 1867, and again in 1870 until 1872. Pope was elected to the federal House of Commons in 1876. With his appointment as Federal Minister of Marine and Fisheries in 1878, James and his family moved to Ottawa. He resigned from federal politics in 1881, died in Summerside on 18 May 1885, and is buried in St. Eleanors.
