Notice biographique
Roy Jack Quinstrom was born in 1912 in Quesnel, British Columbia. The Quinstrom family had come to Canada from Sweden. People of the Quesnel area could not pronounce the family's Swedish name (unknown) so they took the name Quinstrom. Roy believed they were the only people in the world to have that name. After receiving his education at Trail, British Columbia, Roy went to Moscow, Idaho to study Mining Engineering and Metallurgy. His first job was at Goldfields, Saskatchewan. On his return to Trail he was hired by Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company Ltd. and moved to Yellowknife, living there in 1937 and 1938. Roy helped pour the first gold brick produced in Yellowknife in [1938?]. In 1938, Roy married Lillian Cookson eventually settling again in Kimberley, British Columbia in 1940. In 1944, Roy and Lillian moved to San Luis Potosi, Mexico and started an assay business, eventually retiring in Mexico. Roy Quinstrom died in 1995.
