What is this all about?

 

I caught the digital historian flu not long after the birth of the internet and spent the next twenty years researching my family tree. Surprisingly, this journey led me to my back door in British Columbia. At this juncture, I began to take a great interest in local history. While digging up the paper trails of my elusive relatives, many interesting and unrelated stories crossed my path. Some are funny, some are inspiring, and many read like a gripping novel. The ones that I will share here are short-story versions. Collectively, these short stories form the foundation of the place I love, Vancouver Island. I hope you follow along and enjoy these amusing and mildly entertaining clips from newspapers and other sources from all over the world. Knowing which newspaper reported the story is sometimes just as interesting as the story itself. You might find, like I did, that this beautiful province of British Columbia is a very special place.


Thank you for your support, corrections, contributions, likes, follows and shares. It's been fun, and I'm happy to finally launch my site.
