This is English singer-songwriter Julian Dawson. He is a direct descendant of the man who Dawson City was named after way back in 1897, George Mercer Dawson. It was Julian's first time to the Yukon and he and his wife did a rafting trip along the Yukon River to retrace some of his great-great-great Uncle's footsteps. It was cool to look into Julian's eyes and imagine seeing a glimmer of his ancestor, George Mercer Dawson, a famous Canadian scientist and surveyor.
