Geschiedenis
Victor James Ferguson was born in Newry, in what is now Northern Ireland in July 1887. He was an apprentice to various shipowners before immigrating to Canada in 1911, where he settled in Saskatoon. He was employed by the city for a year as the assistant city auditor before moving to Regina, where he spent several years as that city’s auditor. While there, he earned a degree as a chartered accountant in 1914. Three years later, he returned to Saskatoon and set up his own accounting office. He was hired by the City of Saskatoon to audit its finances for the fiscal year ending Dec. 30, 1921.
He died on May 30, 1948 and was buried on June 4th of that year in Woodlawn Cemetery.
