Letter to the Editor

~ Longtime Resident Speaks Out on City Name

Dear Sir:

» When I was a small boy we
came to Castlegar fram Pense,
Snsk. We had heard about
Castlegar long before we ever
came here and we all were very
anxious to see what our new
home would be like.

We arrived in B.C. via CP
Rail train at Kootenay Landing,
where we transferred to the
paddie ©. wheel ‘steamer
Kuskanook which brought us as
far as Nelson. We were then
put on board the CP train again
which brought us in due course
to Castlegar,

My father had come to -

B.C..a year before this and had
made a deal with a man named
H. H. Kleough for some land on
which ‘we.were. to settle. This

land was very close to the place. .

where the Kinnaird Plaza now
stands, In fact, we had a wheal
field'on that very spot.

+My father was in partner-
ship with a ‘man named “Mac”
Annable who owned a sawmill
near. Trail, and this is where the
lumber, came from to build our
house. Still well. known and
living-in Castlegar are quite a
few» people owe had | as
neighbours: The Bloomers, the
McGauloys, the. DeFoes, the
Waldies, the..Sherbikos, the
Salikins, the Poohachoffs and
many, more who have ‘since
moved away.

‘The school was built whére .

Fields Store now stands and
the “teacher's name was’ Mr,
Keif. Tho brush at that’ time
grew. so close to the building

/ that the branches used to rattle

nthe library roof when ‘the
wind blew. ‘
‘These were some of, my
first memories of Castlegar and
we, the’ Defoes,/and the
McGauleys and the Killoughs,
along with" some other help

kept. the- school going. as we -
were all-large enough families -

to keep ‘up’ the ; attendance
record. *

Actually; we — Killoughs
lived in what is’ now’ the

:| Kinnaird area but'we attended‘,

school in Castlegar and got our
mail there and this was our

home town for so many years,

In 1916, 0 logging company
started operations on’ Merry
Creek in Kinnaird and at that
time it was decided to build a
school there and this was done
by volunteer labor, A great
contributor to the cause was ao
man named Mark Dumont
whom the Kinnaird Dumont
Subdivision was named after.

Alter the advent of the
school construction and the
expanding logging industry in
the area, Kinnaird had a brief
boom and quile a few people

homesteaded In the area, The
Post Office, however, was still
in Castlegar and remained
there, and this: was really our
home town and only town until
years later when new highways
were built and people who were
working in Trail began moving
out to Castlegar and Kinnaird

Laway fram the smoke and

jon of a city.

This wus the start of the
Castlegar Transportation
Society, as the workers lived in
Castlegar and Kinnaird and
commuted every day.

In 1947, there was a
petition taken up by the
Kinnaird residents to have a
Post Office opened up in that

+ area, and in 1948 the first Post

Office was Saati in the
building where Kinicki's gas
station is,

mail in Kinnaird and
to do so until 1956 when we
moved to Castlegar. A good
part of our life was spent in
Kinnaird, and ‘some of our
family was raised there. It is a
beautiful place and I will never
forget it, but I feel that
Castlegar is our home town and
the centre of our community
and likewise the only sensible
name for our city. +

Tam not writing this with
the hope of winning any contest
or anything else, I think voting
ona name is perhaps the most
democratic way of doing this
but Castlegar is and always has
been the hub or centre of the
Lower Arrow Lakes region, the
junction of the Columbia and
Kootenay rivers, the halfway
mark’ between Nelson and
Trail, the old steamboat landing
area, and someday the hub of
our: new Revelstoke-Trail-
Nelson Road, when we get our
new lake level road which is
bound to come and which we
might all fight for.
