Discover Your Metis Ancestry: A Beginner's Guide

Dr. John Roberts

"This is a most useful little book.…I would recommend you don't even try to research your Metis ancestry without this book by your side."
- Pat Wohler, C.G.(C.), Smith Falls This Week, June 20, 2008

A review of Canada's culture and history is incomplete without considering the contributions of the first truly unique Canadian people, the Metis.

These descendants of Natives and Europeans were instrumental in Canada's westward expansion.

Do you believe you have Metis ancestors?

Who are the Metis and where did they come from?

What is the impact of this ancestry on your genealogical research?

How can you find the names of those ancestors and how they lived?

Dr. Roberts provides the beginning researcher with many clues and suggestions for further investigation, from websites and books to locations of primary documents.
