In 1919 his family moved to Canada to settle. Cragg gained training as a printer and worked in various towns before being hired by the Kamloops Sentinel in 1944. Cragg worked for the Sentinel until his retirement at age 65, and continued to write a weekly opinion column entitled “By The Way” until shortly before his death. During his time in Kamloops Cragg was active in the Kamloops Museum Association, the International Typographical Union (acting as president on the Kamloops branch for a time), the BPO Elks Lodge Kamloops Branch, and the Rock Club. Cragg was married to Queenie Elizabeth Phillips, with whom he had one daughter (Karen). Richard Balderson Alec Cragg died on January 22, 1981 in Kamloops, B.C. at age 68. Scope and Content: Fonds consists predominantly of photographic materials created by R.B.A. Cragg during his time in Kamloops. Fonds also contains a small amount of textual ephemera collected by Cragg and his wife Queenie, such as ration books and souvenir programs. 2 KAMLOOPS MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES 1989.009, etc. R.B.A. Cragg fonds 1933-1979 Access: Open. Graphic, Textual 2.00 meters Custodial History: Collection was originally comprised of accession 1989.009, which was donated to the Kamloops Museum and Archives on February 14, 1989 by Karen Willies, R.B.A. Cragg’s daughter. Additional material which had originally been placed in the Vertical Files collection (accessions 0.2977, 0.3002, and 1965.047) were accrued to this collection during processing in 2019. Accessions 0.2977 and 1965.047 were donated by R.B.A. Cragg in 1958 and on April 10, 1965, respectively. Accession 0.3002 was donated at an unknown time by Queenie Cragg. 3 KAMLOOPS MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES 1989.009, etc. R.B.A. Cragg fonds 1933-1979 Access: Open. Graphic, Textual 2.00 meters Notes: Source of supplied title: Title based on contents of fonds. Arrangement: No original order of fonds was apparent during reprocessing in 2019, so current order was generally maintained by the Archivist. Fonds is arranged into two series based on format of records: Photographic Materials and Other Materials. A number of slides had been rearranged from their original numeric order (as noted in the slide index), so misplaced slides were reordered wherever possible, and any remaining organization was retained by the archivist. Photographs from file 1989.009.048 Photo Album may have been removed from the album prior to processing and placed in the general KMA Photograph Collection. Some photographs remaining in the album were assigned KMA photo numbers prior to the collection being fully processed. All photographs that were placed in the KMA Photograph Collection have been reunited with this fonds, where possible, and it has been assumed that they were donated as part of accession 1989.009. KMA photo numbers have been retained. Textual records which had formerly been placed in the Vertical Files Collection have been arranged chronologically based on accession date. Access restrictions: No restrictions on access. The archivist reserves the right to restrict access to any fragile material for preservation purposes. Terms governing use and reproduction: No reproduction permitted without consent of copyright holder. It is the researcher's responsibility to obtain permission for the reproduction of materials for publication or dissemination. Finding aids: File list is available for this fonds. Accruals: No further accruals are expected. Treatment note: All photographs and slides that were formerly stored in original photo envelopes were removed and placed in archival photo envelopes (Files 1989.009.001 to 1989.009.1989.009.047). Envelopes have been retained separately. Photographs in Photo Album (1989.009.048) were removed from album pages as they were loose. Photographs and slides were filed in archival envelopes based on album pages, with original placement order of the photos and negatives maintained (left to right, top to bottom, with negatives originally placed in attached envelopes to back of pages). Many pages did not contain the full amount of photographs (9 possible total in 3x3 grid). Page inscriptions have been noted on archival photo envelopes, and album pages have been retained separately. 4 KAMLOOPS MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES 1989.009, etc. R.B.A. Cragg fonds 1933-1979 Access: Open.

Such a unit , fully con tro llable from the cab, had to be capable of sanding and ploughing as well as retaining its original fu nctio n as a dump truck. By 1960, Langford was in production of hydraulic systems, underbody ploughs and tailgate sanders. The basic hydraulic system has been improved during the intervening years but it still uses the same components. Improvements in design and function have developed the unde rbody plough and pres ent L. E. Croft demand is for a plough for each new unit. Changes Art Cook have also been made through the years to the tail gat e sander , which now is widel y used in salt delivery. However, the ori ginal design was sound and, the quality and durability of the sanders proven. The or iginal sanders produced in 1960 are still performing from Langford to 100 Mile Hou se. Over 700 sanders have been produced as well as hundreds of underbody ploughs and hydraul ic systems. Langford fabrication sho p has been the chief manufacturing centre over the years. The hydraulic systems, underbody ploughs, and front-plough mou nts for all new units are fabricated and, excep t fo r the tandem truc ks, are ship ped out fo r installation. Each tandem unit has a front-plough mount, an underbody plough , and a hydraulic system tailor made and installed in the fab ricat ion sho p.

  • Appendix C: List of Other Park Systems
    APPENDIX C LIST OF OTHER PARK SYSTEMS WITHIN THE PRRD The PRRD is well served with parks of various kinds and levels within its boundaries. Although there are no national parks within the PRRD, there is an abundance of provincial parks, protected areas and ecological reserves. The PRRD encompasses a portion of one of the largest Forest Districts in the province, the Fort St John Forest District which itself has an area of approximately 4.6 million hectares. The large size is as a result of the amount of crown land in the district area. The result of all of this open space area is that when compared to other regional districts across the province the PRRD comes out well especially when regional population densities are considered. As compared to other Regional districts such as: Regional District of East Kootenay The Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) has 28 provincial parks, 2 conservancy protected areas, 1 national park, 6 wildlife management areas, 93 recreation sites, 66 recreation trails and 3 Ducks Unlimited properties within their land area of 27, 560 sq km and a population density of 2.0 based on a total population of 56,685. Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) has 28 provincial parks, 1 wilderness conservancy park, 1 ecological reserve, 2 wildlife management areas, 49 recreation sites and 64 trails. The RDCK has a land area of 22,130.72 sq km and a 2011 population of 58,441 for a population density of 2.6 persons per sq km.
