Stewart Nash was born September 23, 1942, schooled in Preston, Idaho, then Twin Bridges, Montana, and started surveying at age 17. He became a licenced surveyor at the age of 30. After trying his hand at sales, services for realtors and microcomputers, he kept coming back to what he knew best - surveying. He is still in the profession today. He now resides with his wife, Sandy, in South Hazelton, BC, where he enjoys fishing, hunting, archery, gold-panning and travelling.
