UPDATED: Confirmed both online here and offline, the house on the right was Mr. & Mrs. Wilson's house. The middle house was Jesse Boston's house, and as we already knew, the house on the left was Mr. Larson's. Thank you for being such awesome history fans. =)

We need your help =) This photo was taken in the parking lot of the original Super Valu, which later became the Royal Bank and is now a daycare, on the northwest corner of Fraser & Jackman.

The photographer is looking to the northeast, where the little strip mall is, and where the Aldergrove Mall once was, so the building on the left would have been the post office (later the Aldergrove Star office, now Abby Pizza).

The larger house in the back would have been the Lars Nelson/Anna Larson-Hayes house (the chimney matches another photo of the house). The house in the centre appears to be BC Mills prefab similar to our museum building, and the one on the right resembles some of the houses over on 271 Street north of Fraser. Do any of you recall who may have lived in the other two houses? They would have been to the north of Ross Motors/Aldergrove Automotive.
