Hi Viola, Could you be a little more specific in your request? Lake Winnipeg is HUGE ! It probably takes up a quarter of the province in size. If you had a bit more information, it would be easier to help. Do you know of his occupation? Fur Trader, Farmer? There are several Indian Reserves on the shores of the Lake but I think that the Chinook Indians are from other than Manitoba. Do you have an idea on his religion, that might give a clue also. Sorry that I am not very helpful! Please let know if you have more information.
