This site is meant to be both a microhistory of the beginnings of the Victoria Gas Company, from 1859-1862, and a resource for further research. In the timeline you will find the world's largest collection of digitized newspaper articles relating to the Victoria Gas Company!

Research and site production was conducted by me, Daniel Reid, from January-March of 2003 as part of History 481: "Victoria's Victoria" at the University of Victoria, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
