ダンカンから追放された (151) 地図上を表示

以下の文章は、今後サイト更新時に日本語に翻訳される予定です。

Duncan was established by a non-Indigenous homesteader in 1864. In 1887, a train station was built by the the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway (E&N), which led to the construction of the Alderlea Hotel and the development of the Alderlea village. In 1891, a post office opened. From 1898 to 1908, copper mining at nearby Mount Sicker was the primary industry. The city was incorporated in 1912. After the First World War, Duncan became an agriculture and logging centre for the Cowichan Valley. There was a small Japanese Canadian community within Duncan with retail stores and several farms.

Duncan was often used as a mailing address for residents of North Cowichan and the surrounding valley, so it is possible smaller communities of Japanese Canadians existed outside the city limits.
