History
Opportunities for logging first drew settlers to the North Vancouver area, a region first occupied by the ancestors of the Squamish, the Tsleil-Waututh and the Musqueam peoples.
Pioneer Mills was established in 1862; it was bought by Sewell P. Moody in 1872, and the Moodyville settlement was named for him.
The North Shore would come to be known as North Vancouver in 1886.
But it would later split apart, with the City of North Vancouver breaking off to form its own municipality in 1907.
