Description From Owner:
- After Laurent Guichon (1836-1902), a native of France who took part in the Cariboo gold rush of 1861 and subsequently ranched with his brothers in the Nicola country (see Guichon Creek).
- In 1883 he left the Interior and bought and began farming a large tract of land here in the Fraser delta. The 'port,' once a halt for regular steamboat traffic, is now silted in.
