Livingston Cabin
Depending on who you talk to, the answer to the question of "Who is Calgary's first resident?" could produce a few different names. However the most popular answer is settler Sam Livingston.
Irish-born Sam Livingston left his home country at the age of 16 for California, drawn by the 1849 Gold Rush. The Irish youngster didn't make much of his prospecting years as far as gold but he did make many friends and many treks throughout North America.
