Tulley Christopher
aka Dennis Charles Christopher
b- May 9, 1881 in Almer, Malahide Township, Elgin Co., ON
d- Sept 2, 1972 in Prince George Regional Hospital, Prince George
BC, age 91
buried in Terrace City Cemetery, Terrace BC
living at 5122 Mills St in Terrace before he died.
Early
Prospector in the Cedarvale area
Known as a
great blacksmith
some local stories about him I received
Lived just east of Cedarvale in early days - prospected, may have
sold some claims as he bought house in Prince Rupert and property in
Terrace, an acre plus on Mills Ave. May have later subdivided it
into 8 lots (just was someone thought) - - Was told he did a lot of
walking - later years lost a leg, then didn't go out much. Very
independent and his neighbour kids (on Mills) loved to hear his
stories. When he was prospecting on the mountains, he would carry
his bedding in his pack - when he got tired he would spread his
bedding and have a nap.
Bert, his Cedarvale friend said he often saw him with pork chops
that had turned green (would keep them under the house, coolest
place in those days), would boil them a bit then fry them. Also
Bert decided to clean his black bathtub - it was white after
cleaning it!
Interesting to talk to the people who knew him - Bert - early
Cedarvale resident and Edna, ex Mills neighbour
He had a girlfriend in Prince Rupert called "Eskimo Mary".

living with his family
