History
Richard W. Cautley was born at Ipswich England in 1873. He came to Canada at the age of 17, and was employed by a surveying firm in British Columbia. Later, he went north into the Klondike at the time of the gold rush and was engaged in the recording and inspection of mineral claim surveys. After the Klondike Gold Rush, Cautley moved to Edmonton, AB, where he formed the land surveying firm of Cautley and Cote. Later, he went into partnership with his brother Reginald Hutton Cautley. Between 1913 and 1924, Mr. Cautley was engaged as one of the commissioners of the survey of the Alberta-British Columbia boundary. He then moved to Ottawa to work for the former Department of the Interior. He was responsible for the survey work of many of the national park sites in the Maritime provinces. He died in Victoria, British Columbia on September 13, 1953.
