I would be interested in connecting by e mail to any member of the Samuel Foulds Family. Samuel was my Great Great Grandfather.
My Grandfather was Alexander Herbert Foulds son of David Foulds. I am also looking for the history of my Great Uncle Robert George Foulds who left Canada for the US. Thank you Allan asjoh@aol.com

Just wondering about which native tribe(s)
Samuel and Nancy are related to?

(My father use to say Sioux, but all signs so far point to Cree)

Thank you Kindly
