Henry "Cy" Detroz (d. 1945)
	
Cy Detroz had a hay farm at the mouth of Coffee Creek in 1910 and applied for a homestead below the telegraph office in 1911. He had thirty-five acres under construction by 1914 and was building a house, barn and small shop when he suffered a fire. By 1922, he had two feed barns, a hay shed, wagon shed, and a poultry house. He had forty acres under cultivation and was raising cattle horses, chickens, and planned to try sheep. Detroz could not afford a survey in 1922 as it would cost $350 and that was more than he earned that year. The homestead was surveyed in 1927 and signed by residents Charles Fogelberg (woodcutter) and Anna Morrison (housekeeper). In the 1930s, Alex Shaeffer died and his widow married Detroz and moved to Coffee Creek.((Mike Rourke, Yukon River: Marsh Lake to Dawson City. Houston B.C.: Rivers North Publications, 1997: 128-9.)) 
	
Detroz supplemented his farming income by cutting wood for the sternwheelers.((Yukon River Oral History Project, Yukon Archives, 81/32, tape 6, Johnny Hoggan.)) He and his partner, Emerson Edwards, prospected and mined on Thistle Creek.((“Emerson Edwards.” //Alaska Sportsman,// May 1971.)) Bostock mentions Margaret Detroz in 1932 when he passed a big log raft with saw logs destined for Dawson, saying “Mrs. Schaeffer” had on a luxurious fur coat and sat in a rocking chair near the front.((Mike Rourke, //Rivers of the Yukon Territory: South Macmillan River.// Houston, BC: Rivers North Publications, 1996.))
	
In 1936, Detroz lost about twenty cattle and four horses in the spring flood. In 1942, Detroz applied for an adjoining homestead.((Mike Rourke, //Yukon River: Marsh Lake to Dawson City.// Houston B.C.: Rivers North Publications, 1997: 128-9.)) During one flood, Cy and Margaret had to escape to the roof. They had a vegetable garden, raised hay, and had a few cattle, including a bull. The Pelly Farm had cattle but no bull, and they arranged one time to borrow the Detroz' bull. It had to be transported by steamer and the crew had a hard time loading it on the sternwheeler //Casca’s// gangplank. The ship was loaded with tourists who were all out watching.((Yukon Archives, John Scott, “A Life in the Yukon.” Unpublished manuscript, 1992: 51.))
