Hi Viola, I am certainly not an expert - but did find the following.re an 1877 Census. I believe you are researching further back. http://royal.okanagan.bc.ca/census/ Census in Canada: http://www.islandnet.com/~jveinot/cghl/census.html Have you searched Ontario? I believe I previously sent you some sites . Did you get the the e mail about the location of Lake Superior and area ,and the reference to the Ontario archive - arrive. Perhaps following up in that area - would be helpful. I know that we found reference to Landry in Ontario ? and mentioned in a book by:Gail Morins. Perhaps following through with that research may be of help to you. I seem to remember that you were going to contact a Tribal Council near your location. You have been in contact with the Hudson Bay Archive in Winnipeg ? I belive you did mention that you had visited the site a number of times. Have you written and asked any information? Since you are having difficulty in finding the information that you are seeking: Perhaps contacting the National Archive in Ottawa - may be of some help. They may be able to guide you to a resource for the information you need. http://www.archives.ca/09/09_e.html Are you searching from way back when - Marie Landry - /Trembley -and Duncan McDougal. Perhaps if you haven't already : Start with now - and slowly work your way back - you may be able to find a trail that will lead you to the information you are looking for. Wishing you much luck with your search. Cheers, Stella At 03:15 PM 10/22/01 -0500, Viola Seward wrote: >Hello. How far back does the census go?
