For today's post, we're sticking with the naming theme and playing Name That Person: Historical Trail Figures Edition!

These guys are an integral part of Trail's history but don't feel too bad if you can't quite remember their names... it has been 125 years after all 😉

But if your memory is serving you right, comment who you think is who and we'll first of all let you know if you are correct and second of all applaud you on your Trail knowledge!

PS: All of the folks in these photos are featured in our museum so come stop by and learn more about their contribution to our city!
