Its been a challenge and eye-opening journey. One of the biggest challenge is shifting through the tall tales, weeds, and falsehoods to find the truth. I was able to confirm my cousin’s ancestry through two lines. The records from the Hudson Bay company were useful. REsearch required me to open my eyes to the heartache and pain that many Natives have been through.
