Caspar Phair (died 1933) was one of the early settlers of Lillooet, British Columbia, Canada, arriving about 1877 to take up the role of the village's school teacher.
Caspar Phair became Lillooet's Government Agent, a position which at one time encompassed a wide-ranging assemblage of duties.
His lasting mark was made in business as a merchant-launching the family's general store on a 'run' that would extend over 50 years.
In 1879 he married Cerise Eyre, daughter of Maria Josephine Martley by a previous marriage.
This elegant building is said to be partially modeled on and named after Mrs Phair's home in Eyrecourt, of County Galway in Ireland.
