Description From Owner:

Named Moyelle when founded in 1898 during the building of the CPR'S Crowsnest Pass line.
The railway had been unable to obtain all the land it wanted at Moyie, two miles away, and so established this rival settlement.
The village was subsequently renamed after W.H. Aldridge, general manager of the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company.
When the railway finally came to terms with the main landowner in Moyie, it moved its station and offices here.
