- Florena (or Floriana) Bird was born in Toronto in 1882 to Joseph Bird and Alice Pill. She married Orval Elsworth Butler, a cabinet maker and carpenter in 1928. She worked as a clerk until her marriage at age 44. The couple moved to Burnaby in the 1930s. Orval died at age 79 in 1941. Florena died in 1973 at age 90. The Orval Butler and his first wife, Catherine, likely built the house at 8006 Government Rd. Catherine (spelling unknown) died and left Orval a widower before his marriage to Florena. Florena later lived in the house. The contents of the house were donated to the Burnaby Village Museum upon her death as part of her estate.
