Annieville<br />

Cannery<br />

<strong>The</strong> Annieville fishing camp sign<br />

marks the site <strong>of</strong> Peter Birrell’s<br />

cannery, which he built in the<br />

1890s. Annieville Cannery<br />

operated into the 1940s. <strong>The</strong><br />

above photo was taken circa<br />

1905, a few years before the<br />

Great Nothern Railway (GNR)<br />

was built through Annieville on<br />

the old River Road grade.<br />

Gunderson Slough formed later,<br />

as a result <strong>of</strong> growing industrial<br />

activity along the river.<br />
