Reverend and Mrs. Ada Naylor arrived in the Yukon River drainage from eastern Canada in 1896, sent by the Anglican Church Missionary Society.((Yukon Archives, Victoria Faulkner, 83/50 MSS 137 f.17.)) Naylor was posted to Forty Mile in 1896 just before the Klondike gold rush. He arrived there less than a week before gold was discovered on Bonanza Creek.((Dan Davidson, “BC couple seeks to fill in family histories.” //The Klondike Sun// (Dawson), 7 October 2009.)) He was ordained deacon in 1896 and priest in 1897. He worked with the miners at Forty Mile for three years before he was sent to Dawson to become the rector in town in 1899.((“H.A.

Rev. Naylor spearheaded the fundraising effort to build St. Paul's Anglican Church, completed in in 1902. Naylor’s grandson, Hugh, has a collection of letters that Reverend Naylor wrote back to his family during this time. Hugh left copies at the Yukon Archives and the Dawson City Museum.((Dan Davidson, “BC couple seeks to fill in family histories.” //The Klondike Sun// (Dawson), 7 October 2009.))
