Your ancestor was the first mayor? That's really cool, are you an Albertan? I wonder what William Moffat would think of the town that has grown to 4,000 people

I could be mistaken but I believe the author of this essay 'E R Patterson' was Mayor while I grew up there, I won't post names for his privacy.

My Ancestor was the first mayor

I have recently moved away from Alberta.
Both a good and a bad thing...

I miss the skiing, but am glad that it isn't as cold here (I hate the -40's and -50's!)

He is a former mayor, which is why I link the above link.

My Grandmother thinks it is amazing that the town has grown to 4 thousand people. If I remember correctly, she remembers seeing William when she was young.

I guess you could call this one a 'mule' or 'prototype'
It says village instead of town and has a gold ring

No I don't have any trade tokens. Those are kind of neat with the ceramic.
Oh ya. No burger baron. Hasn't been here for a long time.

That's amazing. I'm not familiar with them and floored at the price... Do you know why it went for so much?
