Kerry's Dale
Kerrisdale is a lovely, historic Vancouver neighbourhood. It was in 1905, when at the request of BC Electric Railway manager R.H. Sterling, Mrs. William McKinnon named the interurban stop at Wilson Road (modern-day West 41st Avenue) "Kerry's Dale," after her family home of Kerrydale, in Gairloch, Scotland. Translated, Kerrydale means "little seat of the fairies." The name was later changed to Kerrisdale. In 1929, when Kerrisdale was part of the Municipality of Point Grey, it amalgamated with the City of Vancouver.
