Name origin

[edit]

I have a problem with the Akriggs' name-origin, as Spanish for gold is oro, NOT ora. And the name may have existed prior to even the Stikine Gold Rush and many not be a reference to gold, but to being at the (upper) mouth of the Grand Canyon of the Stikine. The clincher will be the source-naming of Fort Glenora, if I can find more on it....Skookum1 (talk) 14:02, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
