Description From Owner:

English Bluff - So named because it was on the British side of the nearby international boundary.
Port Guichon - 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.
Westham Island - Named by Harry Trim, who carne from Westham, Sussex.
