pre
1922 -- Clara and John Lyell and their home in Halfmoon Bay. Clara
had emigrated from England to Vancouver where she met and married
Charles Priestland. They pre-empted 160 acres, including waterfront,
at the head of Halfmoon Bay. There she built a house and became
postmistress at the Welcome Pass Post Office, later renamed, in
1910, Halfmoon Bay P.O. After her husband, who had remained in
Vancouver, died, she married John Lyell, a local fisherman. Years
later he was accused of murdering Bob Rainey after an argument
but whether he was guilty or not, he disappeared and it remains
one of Halfmoon Bay's mysteries. Clara died in 1933 at St. Mary's
Hospital in Pender Harbour.
