Description:
Charles Esplin was born in Scotland and moved to Canada in 1846. He studied engineering at McGill University in Montréal, and then established a business erecting grist and saw mills. He moved to Winnipeg in 1878, and, not having achieved the hoped-for success there, he moved to Minneapolis in 1883. He moved to Seattle, then Victoria, then back to Winnipeg in 1897.
