Col Moody's photo album now at Royal BC Museum
« on: March 12, 2014, 08:52:58 PM »
Col Moody commanded the "Columbia Detachment RE" of 1858 and supervised the early infrastructure of the Province.  He also acted as Lt. Gov. until he departed in 1863.

Interesting  :-\
 the article's use of  First Nations man or person , aboriginal peoples and indigenous peoples of the Americas,
 I suppose it is no longer proper to say INDIAN.

I look forward to seeing the album when they are available for viewing on line.

I'm an RE re-enactor circa 1858-63. In the era, they were "Indians".

Political Correctness (what's correct about it?) did NOT exist.
