Elsie Sisson interview

RECORDED: [location unknown], 1981-03 SUMMARY: TRACK 1: Elsie Sisson and her husband Wilfrid came to North Saanich in 1920 and, for a few years, enjoyed a life of "leisure and pleasure". When their financial circumstances changed, they started breeding Chinchilla rabbits. They were able to sell most of their stock for breeding purposes for several years. When this market was reduced and it was necessary to sell pelts, they found the work distasteful. Mr. Sisson became associated with Mr. Singleton-Wise at the North Saanich Golf Club. Later, the Sissons rented fifty acres from Ardmore Farm and built the Ardmore Golf Course, which is now (1981) owned by the DuTemple family. [TRACK 2: blank.]
