About
Join us as we explore Steveston in 1914 and 1915 with images from the Chilton family collection put together in a short video. The Chilton family lived in the building we know today as the Steveston Museum when it was the Northern Crown Bank. The Chiltons took many photos during their time in Steveston, including many of their friends in the local Japanese Canadian community.
