Lima Point (54˚14'00" 130˚23'00" S end of Digby I, just SW of Prince Rupert). Frederick Lima (d 1897) was a paymaster aboard HMS Malacca, under Capt Radulphus Oldfield. He served on the Pacific Station in 1866–67 and retired from the RN in 1883 with the rank of chief paymaster. Lt Daniel Pender surveyed this area in 1867 with the ancient Beaver, hired from the HBC, and named a number of features after the Malacca and its crew. Prince Rupert Hbr was formerly known as Lima Hbr.
