| Description : | Sepia toned photograph of the Train Station in Peace River, Alberta. Shown are the station, a train, the band, a Union Jack Flag and a group of people. The cars of the train read "Alberta Great Waterways". The photographer's name is not legible on the front of the photograph, but it was most likely J. Martinos, taken sometime between 1916 (when the railway and station were built) and 1917 (when the railway bridge (which is not in this photograph) construction was started). |
| Commentaires : | This donation of postcards and photographs was donated by Ernie Skip, who acquired them from a Mrs. MacRae, thought to be Pearl MacRae. Pearl Hazzard married Wilson MacRae and they had an adopted daughter, Greta MacRae, now Greta Picard (2010). Wilson was the post master in Peace River. It is thought to be Pearl MacRae because she lived only a few doors down from Mr. Skip, one of the postcards has the name Pearl on it, and the dates of the photographs coincide with the times that Wilson and Pearl would have been in Peace River. |
