Legace Island

Legace Island (53˚13'00" 132˚12'00" Kagan Bay, Skidegate Inlet, QCI). Named for Peter Legacé, who accompanied HBC chief factor John Work to the QCI from Port Simpson in 1850 to investigate rumours that gold had been discovered in Mitchell Inlet. He may have been a relative of Josette Legacé, Work’s wife (see Legace Bay). RN surveyor Lt Daniel Pender gave this feature the name Triangle I in 1866, but the hydrographic service changed it in 1947.
