ae David Power and Lan Yip. Lan, daughter of James and Loo Lam Yip, and David, son of Hugh and Olga Power, met at UBC and graduated in 1990. Author seeks local Chinese history DO YOU KNOW any- thing about Chinese- Canadian history in Ter- race? If you do, Lily Chow wants to talk to you. She is doing research for her second book on Chinese history in British Columbia. She received a grant from Canadian Heritage to uncover the history of Chinese Canadians in the Northwest. ' Chow says that no one has looked into this part of B.C.’s* past before, leaving’ a big gap in the Canadian history books. ‘My children _ said, ‘Mom, if you’re not going to write down Chinese history for us, no one will,’’’ says Chow, explaining why she first took on the project. She adds that the Chinese community in the north feels neglected and over: looked by Canadian his- tory. Chow, Chinese In- structor in the internation- al studies department of UNBC, was in the area last week looking for in- formation and artifacts recounting part of the 100-year history of Chinese Canadians in Northwest B.C, She is asking that any- one with information or artifacts related to the his- tory of the Chinese com- munity in the Terrace, Kitimat or Hazelton area contact her. The Chinese-Canadian community in the area was mosily transient at the turn of the century, but Chinese Canadians first started to settle here in the 1930s. However, information is limited and no artifacts or pictures have been found yet, says Chow. Anyone providing suffi- cient information will recieve mention in the upcoming book. Chow’s first book, Sojoumers in the North, covered Chinese history in North-central BC and she hopes to continue her series, tracing Chinese history in the Thompson, the Okanagan and the Kootenays.
