This research was done by Joyce Whitford before her passing in October
2005, this webpage is dedicated to her research. In her exploration
she waited patiently for the mail for her last genealogical request.
When she finally had the pleasure of learning about the Internet and
finally having it in her house she spent hours researching and contacting
those who assisted greatly in this research. For those who have contacted
her and shared their information we thank you. In my travels across
the Métis Homeland she would send me on fact finding missions to Lesser
Slave Lake, Batoche, Battleford, and Prince Albert. With each
trip a journey of exploration into our colourful Métis History. We also
thank the Métis Nation of BC for adding our Mother to the Métis Nation
Memorial webpage. http://www.mnbc.ca/ilm.html
We continue to meet more that are documenting this same history and
we thank you for contacting us, the internet has been of great assistance
in sharing information. If any one would like to add information to
this page please don't hesitate to contact us Email:
northernmetis@pris.ca or
northern@pris.ca We are always looking for more photos and
stories. These webpages were designed by her two daughters Renata and
Earlene to forever remember her genealogical research.
