    3. I don't suppose there are any photos of Burnaby, particularly Piper's Saw Mill. The family ran it from around 1907. I don't know when they left, but would think before the mid 1920's. I understand it's now part of the conservation area.

My grandparents are in some of the,. other people I can't identify in some, and still others are of just the locations themselves. Every year my grandparents would be employed as cook and assistant at these camps, except for a very hard year in the 1930's, when Granddad couldn't find any work. Finally he was hired to cook at a camp for those out of work, and then afterwards he and my grandmother were out across the province once again. Do you know of an organization that would be interested in these? I'd be happy to share them with anyone also. I still have a lot of them to scan yet, but can show some to anyone who might be interested. > Jim Bundy > born at Ocean Falls BC, but live at Kirkland, near Seattle now > > _________________________________________________________________ Be one of the first to try Windows Live Mail. http://ideas.live.com/programpage.aspx?versionId=5d21c51a-b161-4314-9b0e-4911fb2b2e6d
