Yukon who is who

Buckskin Miller

Buckskin Miller was one of the prospectors who stayed the winter of 1862 on the Stikine River at the mouth of the [Chutine?] River. He and some others settled with First Nation wives and these men became known as the “61 men.” Miller mined and traded a bit, making a trip every year to Wrangell for supplies. His claim was about four miles above Glenora, and he mined there until the gold craze took him to the Cassiar, and then to the Yukon in 1887.¹⁾
