Susan Medville<br />

Susan Medville, M.A., member of Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals is the<br />

Principal of Mountain Heritage. She is a historian, cultural resource specialist and heritage and<br />

museum planner. For the past few years she has served as a heritage consultant for working with<br />

the Bridge River Valley Community Association Heritage Committee to assist with the planning<br />

and management their many heritage resources.<br />

In 2017 Susan worked with the Bralorne Pioneer Museum to develop their exhibit at the Hurst<br />

Building, the Museum’s interim home. The exhibit includes six illustrated text panels discussing<br />

the history of Bralorne and Pioneer from the first prospectors coming to the area, through the<br />

booming years of the mines to the closing of the Pioneer Mine and the Whiting’s purchase of the<br />

Bralorne town-site. A limited number of artifacts were selected and put on display. During this<br />

time period Susan also met with Museum Staff to familiarize them in the process of cataloguing<br />

the Museum’s collection and handling and storing the artifacts. She is currently working with the<br />

Museum to develop a plan for the transfer of the Museum from the Hurst building to the<br />

Bralorne Pioneer Mines Office which will become the Museum’s permanent home.<br />

Long time museum advocate and staff person, Teri Anderson greeted<br />
