  • Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; Updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013
    Early Trail Building in the New Colony of British Columbia — John Hall’s Building of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, June 2010; updated Dec 2012 and Dec 2013. A recent “find” of colonial correspondence in the British Columbia Archives tells a story about the construction of the Coquitlam River and Port Moody Trails between 1862 and 1864 by pioneer settler John Hall. (In 1870 Hall pre-empted 160 acres of Crown Land on Indian Arm and became Belcarra’s first European settler.) The correspondence involves a veritable “who’s who” of people in the administration in the young ‘Colony of British Columbia’. This historic account serves to highlight one of the many challenges faced by our pioneers during the period of colonial settlement in British Columbia. Sir James Douglas When the Fraser River Gold Rush began in the spring of 1858, there were only about 250 to 300 Europeans living in the Fraser Valley. The gold rush brought on the order of 30,000 miners flocking to the area in the quest for riches, many of whom came north from the California gold fields. As a result, the British Colonial office declared a new Crown colony on the mainland called ‘British Columbia’ and appointed Sir James Douglas as the first Governor. (1) The colony was first proclaimed at Fort Langley on 19th November, 1858, but in early 1859 the capital was moved to the planned settlement called ‘New Westminster’, Sir James Douglas strategically located on the northern banks of the Fraser River.

  • George Black — Early Pioneer Settler on the Coquitlam River
    George Black — Early Pioneer Settler on the Coquitlam River Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, December 2018. The ‘Colony of British Columbia’ was proclaimed at Fort Langley on November 19th,1858. In early 1859, Colonel Richard Clement Moody, RE, selected the site for the capital of the colony on the north side of the Fraser River where the river branches. The Royal Engineers established their camp at ‘Sapperton’ and proceeded to layout the future townsite of ‘Queensborough’ (later ‘New Westminster’). On July 17th, 1860, ‘New Westminster’ incorporated to become the first municipality in Western Canada. During the winter of 1858–59, the Fraser River froze over for several months and Colonel Moody realized his position when neither supply boat nor gun-boat could come to his aid in case of an attack. As a consequence, Colonel Moody built a “road” to Burrard Inlet in the summer of 1859 as a military expediency, in order that ships might be accessible via salt water. The “road” was initially just a pack trail that was built due north from ‘Sapperton’ in a straight line to Burrard Inlet. In 1861, the pack trail was upgraded to a wagon road ― known today as ‘North Road’. (1) The ‘Pitt River Road’ from New Westminster to ‘Pitt River Meadows’ was completed in June 1862. (2) In the summer of 1859, (3)(4) the first European family to settle in the Coquitlam area arrived on the schooner ‘Rob Roy’ on the west side of the Pitt River to the area known as ‘Pitt River Meadows’ (today ‘Port Coquitlam’) — Alexander McLean (1809–1889), his wife (Jane), and their two small boys: Alexander (1851–1932) and Donald (1856–1930).

  • Our Islands, Our History
    Our Islands, Our History WHAT Are the FAlklAnd IslAnds? Who are Falkland Islanders and what does it mean to be a citizen of our country? These are questions which Islanders are asked frequently but to which there are no quick answers. Our history goes some way towards explaining what it is to be a Falkland Islander. It is a fairly short history. Settlement is relatively recent: it began in the eighteen century and has only been continuous from the early nineteenth century. Unlike the Spanish and Portuguese colonial empires, we never had an indigenous population, so we have no ancient monuments or romantic mythologies to define our identity as Islanders. Other people have spun their own myths around our history and this explains why there are so many misconceptions about who we are and about our right to call the Falklands our home. The series of events which serve as the foundations upon which the Falkland Islands were built are what Our Islands, Our History aims to set out. Our history is one of long periods of tranquillity, punctuated by flurries of complex activity. The events of the 1760s and 1770s are involved but, with the help of the time line running throughout this publication, hopefully comprehensible. The period 1820 to 1833 is also complex and further complicated by the tendency to weave nationalist myths around the basic narrative. Although not a heavyweight reference document, this book is intended to explain to the interested reader how our diverse community has matured, embracing influences from the many nations whose sailors visited these shores or who settled in the Islands, developing a cultural identity all of our own, but always maintaining a close kinship with Britain.

  • Building 'Clarke's Trail' to Port Moody
    Building ‘Clarke’s Trail’ to Port Moody Researched and written by: Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, April 2021. Once the location of the capital for the new ‘Colony of British Columbia’ was decided, Colonel Richard Clement Moody, RE, worried that an invading American army could blockade the Fraser River and cut-off supplies to ‘Queenborough’ ― the original name spelling for the new settlement later known as ‘New Westminster’. As a consequence, early in 1859 Colonel Moody initiated construction of a “military trail” from the Royal Engineers’ Camp (‘Sapperton’) extending “due north” to Burrard Inlet. (1)(2) This “military trail”, known as the ‘Titus Trail’, was constructed under the supervision of Miles Marcus Titus (1815‒1871). (3) It was surveyed by Walter Moberly, CE, and the Royal Engineers in the early Spring of 1859 and a 12-foot wide “pack trail” was cleared between September 1859 and January 1860. In early 1861, the “pack trail” was upgraded to the basic standard of a 20-foot “military road” passable for ordinary carts, but it was actually nothing more than a wide trail. During the Fall and Winter of 1861-62, a party of sappers (Royal Engineers) cleared the timber from the entire 66-foot width of the surveyed right-of-way to better expose the road to the benefits of wind and sunshine. The ‘North Road’ was the first “road” built in the new ‘Colony of British Columbia’ and the first land access extending northward to ice-free Burrard Inlet. The ‘North Road’ also served as a north-south ‘base line’ survey from which subsequent land surveys were referenced by the Royal Engineers.

  • Discourses of Childhood and Settler Futurity in Colonial British Columbia
    “Growing Up and Grown Up … in Our Future City”: Discourses of Childhood and Settler Futurity in Colonial British Columbia Laura Ishiguro* n February 1859, Colonel Richard Clement Moody sent a long letter to Arthur Blackwood, head of the North American De- partment in the British Colonial Office. Written only weeks after his Iarrival on the northern Pacific slope of North America, Moody’s letter discussed the foundations of governance in the recently claimed colony of British Columbia, which he – and the Royal Engineers detachment under his command – sought to translate into British presence, practice, and power on the ground. But so, too, did Moody describe the familial context in which he worked, complaining that his letter had been “written amidst 10,000 distractions … [in] a very tiny house full of [his] own dear Children whose shouts[,] sometimes ‘fun’ sometimes ‘wailings[,]’ [did] not tend to compose the thoughts.”1 While Moody framed his children as wailing interruptions to his official work, in this article I suggest that young people were central to, rather than distractions from, the settler colonial project in mid-nineteenth-century British Columbia. In particular, the idea of children was fundamentally important to a col- lective politics of aspiration – what I call “settler futurity” – that lay at the very foundations of settler colonialism. In a colony in which white settler power and belonging seemed tenuous, the notion that children were the future was more than clichéd aphorism; here, adult Britons understood their children as critical actors who could ensure an enduring * This article has benefited from the close engagement of many people.
