Speaker: John Flewin.
John relates the stories of the first families to settle on Vancouver Island off the west coast of Canada, using entries from the log book of the sailing ship that took them there and through the writings of some on board. The presentation then follows the families’ happenings in their first five years in what was then a new colony and tells of the legacy they left behind in what is now a tourist destination, the island’s capital Victoria.
