Charles Meredith was a Canadian banker, stock broker, and President of the Montreal Stock Exchange (1902-1905). He worked on the exchange for nearly twenty years, and at his retirement in 1924 was one of its oldest --and longest-standing-- members.

Seventh son of nine, and 10th child of 13, born to John Walsingham Cooke Meredith and Sarah {Peglar} Meredith of London, Ontario

On June 6, 1893, Charles Meredith married Elspeth Hudson Angus in Montreal, Quebec Province

Their first house as newlyweds was on Peel Street and called 'The Gatehouse'; it still stands as part of the McGill Faculty of Law, now known as the 'Angus-McIntyre House'. In 1904 Charles and Elspeth commissioned a large three-storey house to be built at 538 Pine Avenue. After Charles passed in 1928, Mrs Meredith lived there until her death, when she left it to be used as a residence for the nurses of the Royal Victoria Hospital. In the 1970s it was bought by McGill University, and serves today as part of the McGill Faculty for Medicine, known as 'Charles Meredith House'
