Re: DONALD SUTHERLAND (1779-1888)
Gary, You say Sally Wapisk died in 1865. Would you mind telling the source of this information as I have not been able to establish any date of death for her. I would like to follow this up with perhaps the Archivisit of the parish where she died and this might tell me where she was living when she ...

Re: WILLIAM COOK (1815-1885)
Thank you Gary. Sorry, the Donald McDonald I'm looking for was in the employ of the HBC and returning to Scotland on 'The Prince of Wales' in 1824, same voyage as my Donald Sutherland with two of his children. The Donald McDonald I'm looking for was a nephew of Donald 'Mad' McKay, i.e. the son of on...

Re: WILLIAM COOK (1815-1885)
Gary, In your info about William Cook and Mary Anne Beardy, you mention "around 1861 their daughter Mary Ann married Philip McDONALD, son of Nancy FERGUSON and Donald McDONALD (1797-1876) an HBC voyageur from Scotland". I've been looking for a Donald McDonald whose mother could have been a...

Re: JAMES ALFRED McLENNAN (1876-1941)
Cathy, Re your earlier information about John James Bear and his wife. I have been trying to piece the early Bear family together for sometime and I would really like to know the parents of John James Bear and his wife Mary Fleet. This might put more pieces to the puzzle of White Bear aka Wapusk aka...

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Some time ago Cathy sent some data about the family of John James Bear who married Maria Flett. This was in relation to James Alfed McLennand and Mary Elizabeth Bear. Would you be kind enough to detail this on line as I'm still trying to piece the early Bear family together. Who are the parents of J...

Re: CHIEF JOHN SMITH (1836-?)
Who were the parents of the brothers John & James SMITH? At this point we simply don’t know for certain. They may have been descendants of Nancy SANDERSON and Alexander SMITH (1789-1860), one of the earliest known Indians named SMITH in the Red River area (from Sprague & Frye’s Genealogy of ...

Re: RALPH CLEMONS (1874-1938)
Gary, I didn't miss the JOHN BEAR page, thank you. I'm looking for any of his decendants who might have done some old digging and turned up more about him and his relationship to White Bear and any early family stories. I've come to the conclusion there are no documents but someone like a descendant...

Re: RALPH CLEMONS (1874-1938)
Thank you Louanne. John Bear and family appear in the 1840 Census for Red River. Living in his house is David Bear and Sally Bear and their families. It is info on Sally Bear that I am chasing. If you live near Winnipeg, the old parish records would be well worth scanning as at least some of the fam...

Re: RALPH CLEMONS (1874-1938)
I see Louanne's great great grandfather is RALPH CLEMONS, son of Margaret Bear and John Clemons. Margaret Bear is daughter of John Bear and Catherine Erasmus. Louanne, do you have any history on JOHN BEAR, who his parents were, where and when he was born. It is possible/likely that John Bear is the ...
