William Piper, founder of brick plant, Red Deer, Alberta.
Mr. Piper came west from Ontario in 1891 and chose for the site of brick plant. In 1892 he brought out machinery and workers from Parry Sound, Ontario. The brickyard was operated by Mr. Piper until 1910, when he retired; his son, Frank, and E.R. Hill took the business over but it closed down from 1914-1920. The plant opened up again in 1920 but ceased operations later that year because of competition from Redcliff which used gas for fuel.
