On May 17, 1864 the first issue of the Government Gazette for Vancouver Island was published. It was two pages. 

In 1864-1865 there were extra editions to publish the Assessment Roll. Some land owners didn't even live on the Island...






From 1864-1866 there were published extra editions for Assessment of Trade Licenses...
