  • British Columbia 1858
    Legislative Library of British Columbia Background Paper 2007: 02 / May 2007 British Columbia 1858 Nearly 150 years ago, the land that would become the province of British Columbia was transformed. The year – 1858 – saw the creation of a new colony and the sparking of a gold rush that dramatically increased the local population. Some of the future province’s most famous and notorious early citizens arrived during that year. As historian Jean Barman wrote: in 1858, “the status quo was irrevocably shattered.” Prepared by Emily Yearwood-Lee Reference Librarian Legislative Library of British Columbia LEGISLATIVE LIBRARY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA BACKGROUND PAPERS AND BRIEFS ABOUT THE PAPERS Staff of the Legislative Library prepare background papers and briefs on aspects of provincial history and public policy.

In the following pages all the buildings and noticeable features of the grounds are indexed in the following manner: The letters and figures following the names of buildings in heavy black type (like this) are placed there to ascertain their exact location on the map which appears in this guide. Take for example Administration Building (N i8): 18 N- -N 18 On each side of the map are the letters of the alphabet reading downward; and along the margin, top and bottom, are figures reading and increasing from i, on the left, to 27, on the right; N 18, therefore, implies that the Administration Building will be found at that point on the map where lines, if drawn from N to N east and west and from 18 to 18 north and south, would cross each other at right angles.

My Sisters Will Not Speak: Boas, Hunt, and the Ethnographic Silencing of First Nations Women Abstract First Nations women were instrumental to the collection of Northwest Coast Indigenous culture, yet their voices are nearly invisible in the published record. The contributions of George Hunt, the Tlingit/British culture broker who collaborated with anthropologist Franz Boas, overshadow the intellectual influence of his mother, Anislaga Mary Ebbetts, his sisters, and particularly his Kwakwaka'wakw wives, Lucy Homikanis and Tsukwani Francine. In his correspondence with Boas, Hunt admitted his dependence upon high-status Indigenous women, and he gave his female relatives visual prominence in film, photographs, and staged performances, but their voices are largely absent from anthropological texts. Hunt faced many unexpected challenges (disease, death, arrest, financial hardship, and the suspicions of his neighbors), yet he consistently placed Boas' demands, perspectives, and editorial choices foremost.

Urrea Master of Arts University of Oregon History Department September 2019 Title: “Our People Scattered:” Violence, Captivity, and Colonialism on the Northwest Coast, 1774-1846” This thesis interrogates the practice, economy, and sociopolitics of slavery and captivity among Indigenous peoples and Euro-American colonizers on the Northwest Coast of North America from 1774-1846. Through the use of secondary and primary source materials, including the private journals of fur traders, oral histories, and anthropological analyses, this project has found that with the advent of the maritime fur trade and its subsequent evolution into a land-based fur trading economy, prolonged interactions between Euro-American agents and Indigenous peoples fundamentally altered the economy and practice of Native slavery on the Northwest Coast.

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives.

Department of The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date ABSTRACT This thesis examines Indian-European relations on the mining frontier in British Columbia. In the mid-nineteenth century, Europeans became interested in exploiting the mineral resources of British Columbia, specifically coal and gold. These minerals were of little intrinsic value to the native populations. Coal was used as a pigment and in ornaments such as labrets, but it was not utilized extensively. Gold was not used at all in the traditional or early post-contact periods. Mining was, therefore, an unfamiliar activity to the Indians. Nevertheless, when Europeans turned to exploiting these resources, the Indians demonstrated that they could readily adapt to this new activity.

VINCENT Spokane Studj? Club Series PUBLISHED BY THE STATE COLLEGE OF WASHINGTON 1927 PREFATORY STATEMENT By E. A. BRYAN T«HE successful business man who is endowed with historical sense and a passion for research has a unique opportunity, not possessed by the recluse, of contributing to regional history. The wide range of the business man's contacts, possessed as he is of the means for col­ lecting and preserving rare books, manuscripts and illus­ trative material, and even of travel throughout the region for the verification and classification of historical data, enables him to give a broad, accurate, and common sense interpretation to the history of the men and things of an earlier day. Mr. Vincent has for many years been a student of Northwestern history and has been a collector of its source material and an intelligent expositor of its earlier phases. From time to time he has given to his fellow members of the Spokane Study Club the results of his studies. This paper on the Hudson's Bay Company is one of five such papers read to the club which the State College of Washington will publish as series A, of "Con­ tributions to the History of the Northwest." THE HUDSON'S BAY COMPANY By W. D. VINCENT 1 HAVE been an adventurer. When I undertook the venture of preparing this paper on the "Great Company" I did not know the perils and pleasures into which my reading would carry me.

  • Background to the Douglas Treaties in the 1840S, Vancouver Island Was Home to Thousands of First Nations People Belonging to Nu
    #1 Background to the Douglas Treaties In the 1840s, Vancouver Island was home to thousands of First Nations people belonging to Nuuchah’nulth, Coast Salish, and Kwakwaka’wakw speaking groups (an 1856 census counted 33,873 Indigenous people on Vancouver Island).1 In 1843, the Hudson’s Bay fur trading company established a trading post at Fort Victoria in the territory of the Lekwungen Coast Salish-speaking people. By 1846, Britain and the United States agreed to divide the territories west of the Rocky Mountains, so that the United States controlled the area south of the 49th parallel and Britain controlled the area north of this border, including Vancouver Island. To maintain its hold on this territory and have continued access to the Pacific Ocean for trade routes, the British Colonial Office created a colony on Vancouver Island in 1849. Colonial powers like Britain believed that if they could settle enough of their own citizens permanently in Indigenous territories, they could claim these territories as their own. Britain allowed the Hudson’s Bay Company to manage the Colony of Vancouver Island and agreed to let the company have exclusive trading rights for the next ten years. In exchange, the company agreed to colonize the island with British settlers. Before the Hudson’s Bay Company could sell the land to the settlers, it first had to purchase the land from its original owners, the Indigenous people. This was described as “extinguishing” or ending Aboriginal rights to land. Colonial powers usually purchased land from Indigenous people by negotiating treaties. Between 1850 and 1854, James Douglas signed treaties with fourteen Aboriginal communities on Vancouver Island.

  • NANAIMO's HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT: the Uneven Shoreline, Sheltered Islands and Sandy Beaches of the East Coast of Vancouver
    NANAIMO’S HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT: The uneven shoreline, sheltered islands and sandy beaches of the east coast of Vancouver Island have been, for centuries, a place of beauty and plenty. Aboriginal people were the first to make this sheltered stretch of coastline their home. Eventually settling in what are today, Departure Bay and Nanaimo, the Snuneymuxw, a Coast Salish people, found food, fresh water, and winter shelter among the islands and inlets. It was this wealth of natural resources that encouraged the migration of Europeans to this coast many years later. Animals harvested for furs, forests for timber and fish for food were just some of the treasures found here, but it was coal, the black fuel of the 19th century, that would forever mark the heritage of Nanaimo. Today, the houses, commercial buildings, the city plan and the very shape of the land records the progress of a community that grew from a company coal town to a thriving port city. The Snunéymuxw left abundant traces of their original settlement in the Nanaimo district, which are evidenced by the many archaeological sites in the area. Their homes, the first architectural structures to be built in Nanaimo, were great longhouses measuring about 100 feet long by 30 feet wide. Built with skeletons of log beams, the longhouses had split cedar planks for the walls and shed roofs with a smoke hole. Each longhouse housed several families, providing a place for sleeping, cooking and celebrating.
