Thanks very much Leslie: I have updated the Page accordingly.
Where do you fit into the picture?
Speaking of pictures, if anyone has pictures that could be added to that page I’m sure we would all be grateful.

Ahah! You must be Roy SMITH’s daughter! I went to school with Roy. I knew the family very well – your aunts & uncles Doris, Jimmy and Audrey (Zamolski), etc.

That is indeed interesting Leslie! However, it does conflict with numerous other references to Angelique as daughter of Michel CHALIFOUX.
I would be grateful to see the Manitoba Archives version. You could send as an Email attachment. Thanks.
By the way, I think I asked this before, are you Roy SMITH’s daughter?

Yes I'm Roys Daughter I will scan the documents I have from the Manitoba Archive and sent them when I have free time later. But I also have some other info on that -In the book "Metis Family" a Genealogical Compedium", ISBN 1-886560-00-5m written by Gail Morin, published 1996 by Quintin Publications Pawtucket Rhode Island Volumn 1, page 195 The entire section reads as follows:
Joseph Cahlifoux m a daughter of Alexander Henry.
Children
1. Julie Chalifoux, b 1804 m William McKay, son of Donald "Mad" and Miss Sutherland
II Angelique Chalifoux B c 1808 M Hugh Gibson
III Theresa Chalifoux b c 1810 m Colin Robertson
IV Isabella Chalifoux b c 1815 m Francis Heron
V Marguerite Chalifoux b c 1816 , Ambroise Leclerc dit Allard, son of A"mbroise and Marguerite Saulteaux
VI Frances Chalifoux m John McDonald b Scotland

Also in a "Her 100th Christmas" written by Elsie McKay when she interviewed Sophia Anderson - "Grandmother's sister was married to Frances Hearne, a brother to Sir Samuel Hearne, a brother to Ireland twice and told us all about her trips when she visited at our home."
Would love to chat, or have coffee are you in the area?
thanks Leslie

I have forgotten what the CHALIFOUX connection was. Was there a CHALIFOUX in your ancestry?
I live in Edmonton. Where are you?
