I know that many of you like to look at the directories that have been posted, so here's a look way, way back before telephone directories were a thing out here.

These pages are from Williams' 1883 British Columbia Directory for all of Langley Municipality. The information for this directory would have been compiled in 1882, and the majority of settlers are located in or near Fort Langley - or perhaps due to the lack of roads, not all of the settlers were accounted for in this volume. It is interesting to note, however, that Philip Jackman Sr is not listed as being in the township. He, along with his sons Richard and Philip Jr are all listed as living in New Westminster City on Agnes Street.
