Fred "Collie" Collings probably knows more about the history of Bradford then anyone, and that's one reason why he was asked to help compile the historical map reproduced below. Mr. Collings, the town's first tax assessor, was presented with a framed copy of the map at a recent council meeting by Mayor Roy Gordon. The map was drawn by Boz Posilovic of the town planners Proctor and Redfern. Queen's Silver Jubille medal recipient Charles Evans remembered the contributions of Mr. Collings, and further mentioned the outstanding efforts of former clerk-treasurer Margaret Davey, and Mr. Evans. Mr. Collings is retired and lives in Bradford.
