Charles Franklin Boutillier 
	
Franklin Boutillier came to the Yukon from the Maritimes-New Hampshire area in the early 1900s. His wife, Maude Graves, and their children Hazel, Helen, Donald (b.1900) and Harold (b. 1902) joined him several years later. In 1903, Franklin was prospecting in the Christmas Creek area, southwest of Kluane Lake, and Boutiller Summit is named for him.((//Pioneer Women of the Yukon Cookbook.// Dawson City, 2011: 125.)) The Boutillier family moved from the Kluane area to a wood camp on Lake Laberge where they put out wood for the White Pass boats.((Yukon River Oral History Project, 81/32, tape 6, Johnny Hoggan.))
	
C. F. Boutillier and J. H. Langley applied for separate 400' waterfront leases just above the telegraph office at Lower Laberge. Boutillier also applied for a 300' lease on the other side of the river. Langley pulled his steamer up to the site in the winter of 1911-12 and he had plans to build barges and store freight. Boutillier also constructed ways and had the sternwheelers //Evelyn// and //Delta// pulled up during the same winter. These private leases were given up the next year.((Mike Rourke, //Yukon River: Marsh Lake to Dawson City.// Houston, B.C.: Rivers North Publications, 1997: 78.)) The ways continued in use. The sternwheelers //Washburn// and //Delta// operated between Tanana and Dikeman during the 1914 season. The //Washburn// was then put on the ways at Lower Laberge, with the barge //Shay,// for the winter. (Yukon Archives, Cor 722 (1914) WP&YR. RGI, II-I)) The //Delta, Reliance,// and //Washburn// were among the boats that commonly wintered at Lake Laberge.

Son Jack and daughter Margie (Art Fry) were born in the Yukon. In 1914, when Margie was two years old, the family floated down the Yukon River to Dawson. They lived downtown before moving to a large home on the hill behind Dawson, near the cemeteries.((//Pioneer Women of the Yukon Cookbook.// Dawson City, 2011: 125.)) The Boutillier family mined on Bonanza Creek.((Yukon River Oral History Project, 81/32, tape 6, Johnny Hoggan.))
