Encyclopedia > Caspar Phair

One of Lillooet's first settlers, Caspar Phair came from Ireland with his wife, Cerise. Caspar Phair was Lillooet's first government agent, a gold commissioner, coroner, teacher, and merchant. He built Longford House in the 1880's, an elegant building that was partially modelled after Mrs. Phair's home castle, Eyrecourt, of County Galway in Ireland. Caspar Phair's son A.W.A. "Artie" Phair was a coroner as well as a noted chronicler and photographer of Lillooet's history. Caspar and Cerise Phair died in 1933, leaving their house to Harold Phair, Artie's son. Longford House was later bought by Dr. Masajiro Miyazaki.
