Hi Terri, The following should be interesting: History Television: Biography of: Major James Morrow Walsh: http://www.historytelevision.ca/chiefs/htmlen/sioux/sp_walsh.asp http://www.thehistorynet.com/we/blsittingbullandthemounties/ On May 7, 1877, some 11 months after Custer's bloody disaster, 34-year-old NWMP Major James M. Walsh, a sergeant and three troopers followed an Indian trail to the dun-colored hills and ravines of Pinto Horse Butte, some 280 miles north of the Little Bighorn. The trail led up from the Montana border, about 50 miles to the south. A good-sized band had passed over this ground. The Indians had crossed into Canada's North-West Territories close to where the White Mud--or Frenchman's--River flowed down into Montana. According to Walsh's two Metis (mixed-blood) scouts, this was Sitting Bull's trail. If so, the NWMP, especially the 90-odd men Walsh commanded at Fort Walsh, would have no small task preserving law and order in the border country south and east of the Cypress Hills, in what would become the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. Even before the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Walsh and the other Mounties had realized that the U.S. military operations against the Sioux and Cheyenne were likely to drive hostile Indians north across the border. It had only been a matter of time before Sitting Bull and his followers crossed into Canada. Still, it was one thing to expect their arrival but another to actually deal with them.<snip> As for James Walsh, his service with the NWMP did not last much longer. "By 1881, Macdonald had convinced himself that Walsh was wholly responsible for the Canadian government's embarrassment over Sitting Bull," R.C. Macleod wrote. "Walsh was given extended leave to remove him from the scene...Macdonald had found a scapegoat and Walsh...was forced to resign in 1883." Upon leaving the North-West Mounted Police, Walsh established the Dominion Coal, Coke and Transportation Company and helped open coal mining in the Souris District of Manitoba. He died at Brockville, Ontario, July 25, 1905, at age 62.<snip> At 04:12 PM 4/28/03 -0400, ACharmedOne49@aol.com wrote: >Can anyone tell me anything about a Major Walsh who was a member of the Royal >canadian Mounted Police and was part of a detachment who apprehended Sitting >Bull in Canada in 1876. > > >terri > > >==== CANADA-GENWEB Mailing List ==== >Join the COLDWELL surname Mailing List! >http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/c/coldwell.html

Plus a few of the Nault family members married Beauchamps. I have a record of a Louise Beauchamp baptised 31 July 1874 at St. Agathe , Mb. Her father was Abraham who was married to Marie Desjardins in St. Norbert MB. These people were not full native and didn't belong to any band that I am aware of. But as time passes by things change from generation to generation. There was also a number of Beauchamps in the Fisher Branch area at the turn of the century. I am in contact with a Beauchamp who is also interested in Genealogy. We share a direct line together. Do you know where your grandparents where born? do you have any old obits. that family members have kept? Are you sure they belonged to a band. There where some Beauchamps listed on reserves in the Montana's in the early part of the century. Who most likely originated from Canada. Because the Beauchamp name came west from Quebec to Manitoba and west from there. I believe there may also be some around the Turtle Mountain area. S.
