The Yukon Residents database includes permanent and temporary names of Yukon residents who lived or worked in the Yukon from 1894 to 1958. The names were compiled from a limited number of archival resources (ie. Anglican Church band lists, government records, and manuscripts) plus library sources (regimental histories, 1935 town directory & telephone directories, etc.). The database currently includes only Yukon residents living in the central and southern Yukon. Residents living in the northern Yukon (such as Old Crow, Rampart House, etc.) have not been entered due to time constraints. View the sources

The index consists of 1,730 names of people who were either travelling to or living in the Klondike who had relatives interested in contacting them. The relatives would either write a Dawson newspaper, a government department, or the North West Mounted Police requesting information regarding their family member. If no information was available notices would then be placed in the local newspapers asking the public if they had information on the location of the missing people.

Please consult with the Archives reference staff for further information (yukon.archives@gov.yk.ca).

Members of the Arctic Brotherhood Source
NameDescription
TAYLOR CHARLESArtic Chief. Camp Dawson No.4 of the Artic Brotherhood. Org.Nov.24, 1899.
In the late 1890's, Skagway and Dyea, Alaska were hotbeds of violent crime. The Arctic Brotherhood was the Alaskan equivalent of the Yukon Order of Pioneers (whose motto was "do as you would be done by"). It was formed during the Gold Rush era to ensure stampeders' rights were protected. The 1899 Arctic Brotherhood Hall can still be visited in Skagway. With 20,000 pieces of driftwood tacked to the front of it, it's hard to miss. The Arctic Brotherhood Hall, established in 1899, remains a historic site in Skagway, Alaska today.
Victims of the killer avalanche on the Chilkoot in 1897-98 Source
No records in this dataset
These are the 73 victims of a killer avalanche on the Chilkoot Pass. In April, 1898, a thunderous, 30-foot wave of snow swept down the Chilkoot, bouncing boulders and burying dozens of stampeders alive. While some of the buried were rescued by frantic friends, 73 others were not so fortunate, their cries muffled and their bodies forever entombed by thousands of pounds of snow.
S.S. Canadian Islander Victims, August 15, 1901 Source
No records in this dataset
These are the passengers who were registered aboard the S.S. Canadian Islander, which sank August 15, 1901. It is something of a miracle that the Islander didn't sink earlier. In KLONDIKE, Pierre Berton describes its maiden voyage: "The horses were wedged side by side so tightly that there was no way for them to lie down. Many of these wretched creatures had their heads so close to the engines that they were in a state of continual panic, rearing, biting..."

Benjamin F. Craig was a post office worker in Dawson City. He maintained a list of people leaving the Klondike by death or departure. Many of the almost 14,000 entries list forwarding addresses or destinations for those leaving the Klondike. The predominance of Nome, Alaska as one listed destination is consistent with other historical records documenting a mass exodus from Dawson to Nome in 1899. Like a giant nomadic tribe, thousands streamed toward Nome when rumours hit Dawson that there were flakes of gold in the sands of Nome's beaches.

NameType of Claim
TAYLOR, E.V.Owner. Claim Hunker Creek 2. Hester Creek. Tributary of Hunker.
TAYLOR, EUGENEClaim 10 (upper Hunker Creek half), below discovery.
In 1902, the Dawson Daily News ran its "Golden Cleanup Edition." Records of all claims staked during the past several years on creeks such as Bonanza and Eldorado were printed for public perusal. You can look up Klondike heroes such as Antone Stander (also known as "The Lucky Swede") to view the gold claims that made him a wealthy man.
Dawson Council members Source
No records in this dataset
This is a partial list of Dawson City's Council members. With entries ranging from the mid-1800's to the 1980's, it is unclear who created or maintained these records. Names are followed by titles such as Territorial Secretary, Mayor and Legal Advisor. Some dates are listed.
Placermining Applications Vol 1 Source
No records in this dataset
After gold was discovered in 1896 on Bonanza Creek, thousands of claims were staked along tributaries of the Yukon and Klondike Rivers. The Yukon Gold Commissioner's Office issued "Placermining Grants," enabling prospectors to become miners and work their claims for "placer" findings (mineral deposits containing gold, left by glaciers or rivers ). This, the first of three Placermining Grants volumes, lists almost 20,000 numbered grants and the names of their owners.

Doctor's Names Source
No records in this dataset
Yukon doctors and nurses wore many hats in the days of the Klondike gold rush. A doctor had to pass as internist, orthopedic surgeon, obstetrician, dentist, and even detective. Tackling emergencies with little equipment, a Yukon doctor usually worked in isolation. Most often, only one doctor inhabited a 400 mile radius. This database provides names of early medical professionals in the Yukon.
Firemen's Names Source
No records in this dataset
During the winter of 1898-'99, for example, two huge infernos laid waste to extensive and expensive commercial real estate on Dawson City's main streets. In the words of some writers, Dawson was "too cheap" to pay for fire fighting equipment, but the town did maintain a volunteer fire department. This database includes the names of men who joined the Dawson Volunteer Fire Department in 1899.

Women of the Golden North Fraternal Organization Source
No records in this dataset
A sisterhood of women who took part in the Klondike Gold Rush evolved into the Golden North Fraternity.

The table provides a list of residents who lived in Dawson and surrounding area from 1896 to 1920. This database was compiled by Charlene Porsild, a PhD candidate, for her thesis “Culture, Class and Community: New Perspectives on the Klondike Gold Rush, 1896-1905” that was published in the early 1990s. The thesis’ bibliography provides information on the sources indicated in the last 3 columns of the table. Please consult with the Yukon Archives (yukon.archives@gov.yk.ca) or the Dawson City Museum (info@dawsonmuseum.ca) for further information.
Northwest Mounted Police Employees Source
No records in this dataset
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.

The index consists of 3,020 entries of names, businesses and organizations, arranged alphabetically by surname, business/organization name that appeared in the Dawson City section of the Gazetteer. The index is based on a microfilmed copy of the 1917-1918 Gazetteer and due to poor quality of some of the microfilm sections the entries were either partially or completely illegible. Names that couldn’t be read were denoted with a question mark (?), and those that were partially legible were finished with ellipses (…). If there appeared to be a discrepancy between spellings, both were included in the index separated by a backslash (/).
