Re: JOHN GEORGE KENNEDY (1870-?)

gnstill-Do you consider Alexander Kennedy(b. 1852) a treaty Indian because of the fact that he was born well before 1870 and was heavily associated through his Kennedy relatives to the St. Peters Band? I know that they all helped each other with the paperwork required by the government around this t...

Re: MAGNUS SPENCE (1765-1845)

I have read the history bit on this site about some of the first family names in the red river area and noticed the Spence family listed. In addition I noticed the Wright family. I am related to some Wrights from the area but I think that they were non Indian unless I am wrong. One of them apparentl...

Re: LOUIS SIMARD (1855-1920)

Louis Simard's second wife it appears was the mother to Thomas Wilfred Simard. Her name was Flora 'Jane' Favel. Although the birth was registered in 1974 for some reason making me think that there was some confusion about who Thomas Wilfred's parents were. It appears the woman Louis was with, Mrs. S...

Re: WILLIAM THOMAS (1846-1931)

This William Thomas information is invaluable as it connects him to some of the first Thomas's of St. Peters. Thanks for sharing what information you had from your own family research. I know a lot of the info was in that Metis book, although, to me it looks like the Thomas's were mostly Indian. I c...

Re: MAGNUS SPENCE (1765-1845)

I'm not sure where exactly your research starts or ends for the Spence family, I am also curious as to who they were connected to because there are enough of them known that they could potentially be connected to some of my family tree. One of my aunts tells me that the child given up for adoption t...

Re: JOHN GEORGE KENNEDY (1870-?)

To confuse matters, the 1906 census in the St Peters Reserve enumerated two different children named Agnes in the household of Mary (nee STEVENS) & William THOMAS (1846-1931); one was his 18 year old daughter Agnes (b-c1888) and the other was his 10 year old (adopted) granddaughter (b-c1896). I...
