The town of Peace River's most famous former resident was named Henry Muller,
an American prospector and trader. Arriving in the mid-1800s, he earned his
nickname, 12-Foot-Davis,
by shrewdly staking claim on a 12-foot plot of land located between two productive,
larger mines, extracting enough gold to establish a number of trading posts
that would compete with the powerful Hudson's Bay Company. The Peace
River Centennial Museum & Archives displays artifacts from this time, when
Canada's north remained
wholly unexplored.
Just outside of town along the scenic Shaftsbury Trail (Highway 684) is RCMP
Sergeant
Anderson's Cabin, built in approximately 1899 and used by Anderson while
he patrolled the isolated surrounding areas. Also along the highway is St.
Mary's on the Peace, one of Hudson's Bay's original forts, as well as Mackenzie
Cairn, a monument erected in 1929 to commemorate the difficulty Alexander Mackenzie and
his men had passing through the treacherous Peace River Canyon. According to
local legend, by drinking the waters of the Peace visitors will ensure they
will one day return.
