Born in 1862, the only daughter of Sheriff Roland and Abigail Luclass

Her father was the Sheriff of Vancouver. She is wanted for his murder. She was witnessed staking him through the heart and then decapitating him, his body was never found. There is price on her for 500.00 Pounds.

Emily was born to a rather average middle class home, her parents were upstanding citizens of booming Vancouver. Her father, a Colonel for the British army, spent his spare time doting on his only daughter and young beautiful wife Abigail, helping keep order in the bustling township. Emily's education was a unique blend of proper education born of her mother's great love of books, but also of the tough cowboy lifestyle, she learned to rope and ride at five. When she hit puberty, she grew into the legacy of her mother's beauty, but retained her father's independent nature, which both frightened and fascinated the young men of the town. Much to her mother's chagrin, she was not interested in marriage. Instead, she often was found wandering the woods by the river, amidst the tall trees. Other than that she was a well behaved and gentle creature from a good family.

In 1871, the Canadian Pacific Railway, wanted to come into the town of Gastown, and began buying the town to turn it into the Canadian city of Vancouver. They're methods were unscrupulous and motivated by pure profit, and under the direction of one Henry John Cambie. He was on the surface, genial, Christian, and a great philanthropist, being instrumental in building Christ Church Cathedral, the major Anglican church in downtown Vancouver. However his ruthless business methods were secretly criticized.

The City of Vancouver was incorporated into British Columbia, 6 April 1886, the same year that the first transcontinental train arrived. The name, honoring George Vancouver, was chosen by CPR president William Van Horne, who arrived in Port Moody to establish the CPR terminus recommended by Henry John Cambie.

William Van Horne was an eccentric man, he never went out of doors during the day, claiming a delicate skin condition that was sensitive to light, he also had a fondness for children, and often sponsered events at the church for the impoverished children of the area. He also had an extreme hatred of the local Indian tribe, the Musqueam and Squamish peoples who had villages in the areas. The local tribes were hostile to the settlers and the whose hostility had increased in response to the environmetal havoc recked by the building of the train tracks.
