The file contains photocopied information about two Peace River trips, one from 1911 by John W. Mercer and the second in August-September 1987 by Mercer's daughter "Bobs" Kirkham (Alice Katharine Mercer), granddaughter Tinkey Turner and Mathlene Leiding. J.W. Mercer traveled from Vancouver to Edmonton via Pine Pass and the Athabasca River locating coal and gas claims in 1911. In 1987 his daughter's party travelled from Norwick, Vermont to B.C. to retrace his route.
