The settlement was named either for Thomas Gregg Procter, owner of the Kootenay Valley Company, a land promotions company in the region around the turn of the 20th Century, or for another Mr. Procter who had also been part of the CPR Survey in this area and was Chief Engineer for the Department of Railways.
