Gold Rush Database Sources
Northwest Mounted Police Employees (44 records)

Print-friendly version

During the Klondike Gold Rush, laws were scant. In 1894, a thickset, gruff and incorruptible Charles Constantine of the North West Mounted Police arrived to restore order. A year later, a detachment of 20 NWMP officers followed. The Klondike Gold Rush would have been a nightmare of crime and vigilante justice without them. This database features the names of those early officers.
