Found Heritage Through Review,
By A Customer
This review is from: Children of the Fur Trade: Forgotten Metis of the Pacific Northwest (Paperback)
From the book, I found out that the Metis of the Pacific Northwest formed many communities in that area. My great-grandparents were born in Walla Walla, WA. and we were told that they were French- Canadian and "Black Irish". I read that in Walla Walla, is where they founded communities and that they hid there ancestry and called themselves French-Canadian. So, on reading this, I found out that the missing part to my full heritage was actually a mixture of French and Native American Indian. I owe a great gratitude to Mr. Jackson. Thank-you!!! Sean

Great Book!,
By Troy Felsman (Arlee, MT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Children of the Fur Trade: Forgotten Metis of the Pacific Northwest (Paperback)
Mr. Jackson did excellent research for this book. I have numerous ancestors mentioned in the book and even had a picture of one that I had never seen before. Anyone interested in the history of the Western Mt, Idaho and Eastern WA area, will need to read this book. I hope that the Author publishes more material from his research.
