Here is another of the hand-drawn-from-memory Aldergrove maps, but it's not known who drew it. Most likely drawn when research for The Place Between books began, it appears to span the 1950s-1970s, and as noted in the image, some locations aren't quite in the correct spot - the United Church and Moen's Woodworking, for example, are a bit too far north on the map. Also, the Swensson & Eve Hatchery location is a bit suspect, as it sat where the Post Office is now. Documentation to say that it moved to the side street hasn't been located, but that doesn't mean it didn't. Either way, this map does contain valuable information and is useful to our research, so we are grateful to whomever took the time to put it on paper.
