Viola Seward Lake Winnipeg is definitely in central Manitoba right next to Lake Manitoba. If you could translate the French name to English I might be able to help you pinpoint the name of the community. At the south end of Lake Winnipeg is a community of peoples of Icelandic descent, Gimli. Around the large lake are many communities of Native, French, and a wide variety of ancestry.
