The Great Barkerville Fire of 1868

  • サマリー

  • This latest instalment of Haphazard History, written by Barry Sale, revisits the historic Barkerville fire of 1868.

    During its peak, the gold rush town of Barkerville had more than 10,00 residents who lived in wooden buildings that were clustered in a haphazard manner along its main street in the Central Interior.

    On September 16, 1868 the saloon caught fire and then the end of the day a total of 116 buildings were destroyed in the blaze. Fortunately there had been no loss of life, but property losses were estimated to be about $700,000, or around $12.7 million in today’s prices.
