Our History 1793 Sir Alexander McKenzie embarked on his historic journey to the Pacific Ocean. During his voyage he passed the mouth of the Pine River and noted the excellent potential for a future trading establishment The first fort, called Rocky Mountain Fort, was established along the Peace River at the mouth of the Pine River. The Rocky Mountain Fort, to this day, is the earliest European settlement in mainland British Columbia Fort d Epinette, also called St. John, was established by the Northwest Company. The name permanently changed to Fort St. John when the Hudson s Bay Company took over management of the fort. In 1823 the fort is closed s Fort St. John is reopened on the south side of the Peace River after a 40 year lapse Hudson Bay factor Frank Beatton moves the post of Fort St. John directly across the Peace River to the north side onto what is today referred to as Old Fort located immediately outside of the city of Fort St. John to Present Frank Beatton again moves Fort St. John to the location of Fish Creek, located just outside of present day Fort St. John. Several years later the fort was moved one final time to the present day city of Fort St. John. HISTY OF FORT ST JOHN
