Genealogy & History - Canada
BOOK - The Genealogy of The First Métis Nation.
Compiled by D. N. Sprague and R. P. Frye.
The Genealogy of the First Métis Nation introduces the general reader to the story of the development of the Red River Métis and their dispersal west and north. Moreover, the volume contains tabular material and instruction to assist the descendants of that aboriginal population in tracing the genealogy of their ancestors to ascertain where they lived, what they did with theri land before it became part of Canada, and whether this occupancy appears to have been recognized by the government of Canada in the form of land grant during the period of disposal of Manitoba land claims between 1870 and 1882.
In this way, the volume should serve as an indespensible companion to such works as Métis Land Rights in Alberta or simply to supplement the knowledge of persons interested in the population that settles in the vicinity of present day Winnipeg in the nineteenth century.
