Présentation du contenu

The Tofino series contains photos and photo album leafs that depict Tofino and the surrounding area, seiners and trollers fishing from 1933-1937. Located on the west coast of Vancouver Island in the traditional territory of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation of the Nuu—chah-nulth people, south of Clayoquot Sound. Settlers came to the site and the surrounding around starting in the 1890s. Officially named Tofino with the opening of a post office in 1909, although its first store was opened in 1901, a school in 1906 and a wharf and lifeboat station in 1908 and its church in 1913. Tofino was incorporated as a municipality in 1932. Tofino developed around the fishing and logging industries, now known for its natural beauty and a great destination for outdoor recreation.
The newspaper covers the events of the naval action that lead to Lord Nelson’s death.

He was promoted to captain in 1779 when he was 20 during the American Revolution.
