This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martin Prevost or Provost arrived in Quebec before 1639. He was settler and farmed near Beauport, Quebec. He married on 3 November 1644 at Quebec. Marie-Olivier, was the daughter of Roch Manithabewich, a Huron (or maybe an Algonquin) Indian, and adopted daughter of Olivier Letardif. Together they had eight children whose descendants continue to the 21st century. Martin Prevost remained in Quebec. His wife Marie-Olivier died on 10 September 1665 when her youngest child was only 3 months old. He married Marie d'Abancourt two months later. They had no known children. Marie d'Abancourt was the widow of Jean Jolliet and widow of Godfroy Guillot dit Lavallee. She died between 1678 and 1681. Martin remained unmarried until his death in 1691 at Beauport (Quebec). His surviving children and grandchildren were all living near Beauport. They were farmers, laborers and merchants and appear to have assimilated into the non-Indian culture. In the seventh generation the Prevost descendants are living in the Oregon Territory, Alberta, and Manitoba and have once again married mixed blood wives. Notable descendents of Roch Manitouabeouich, father-in-law of Martin Prevost are Jean Baptiste Lepine, Stephen Liberty, Louis Provo, Joseph Salois, and Joseph St.Germain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eastern Métis, Michel Bouchard, Sébastien Malette, and Siomonn Pulla demonstrate the historical and social evidence for the origins and continued existence of Métis communities across Ontario, Quebec, and the Canadian Maritimes as well as the West. Contributors to this edited collection explore archival and historical records that challenge narratives which exclude the possibility of Métis communities and identities in central and eastern Canada. Taking a continental rhizomatic approach, this book provides a rich and nuanced view of what it means to be Métis.
Download or read book Strangers in Blood written by Jennifer S. H. Brown and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For two centuries (1670-1870), English, Scottish, and Canadian fur traders voyaged the myriad waterways of Rupert's Land, the vast territory charted to the Hudson's Bay Company and later splintered among five Canadian provinces and four American states. The knowledge and support of northern Native peoples were critical to the newcomer's survival and success. With acquaintance and alliance came intermarriage, and the unions of European traders and Native women generated thousands of descendants. Jennifer Brown's Strangers in Blood is the first work to look systematically at these parents and their children. Brown focuses on Hudson's Bay Company officers and North West Company wintering partners and clerks-those whose relationships are best known from post journals, correspondence, accounts, and wills. The durability of such families varied greatly. Settlers, missionaries, European women, and sometimes the courts challenged fur trade marriages. Some officers' Scottish and Canadian relatives dismissed Native wives and "Indian" progeny as illegitimate. Traders who took these ties seriously were obliged to defend them, to leave wills recognizing their wives and children, and to secure their legal and social status-to prove that they were kin, not "strangers in blood." Brown illustrates that the lives and identities of these children were shaped by factors far more complex than "blood." Sons and daughters diverged along paths affected by gender. Some descendants became Métis and espoused Métis nationhood under Louis Riel. Others rejected or were never offered that course-they passed into white or Indian communities or, in some instances, identified themselves (without prejudice) as "half breeds." The fur trade did not coalesce into a single society. Rather, like Rupert's Land, it splintered, and the historical consequences have been with us ever since.

Mathieu d'Amours (b. 1618), who founded the Canadian family d'Amours, came to Quebec 1651, a year after his sister. He married 1652 Marie Marsolet (b. ca. 1637), the eldest daughter of Nicolas Marsolet. This marriage produced fifteen children, among them ten sons, eight of whom lived to establish families of their own. Many descendants immigrated to the United States. Jean Francois d'Amours, Sieur de Courberon (1791-1862), was born in Canada, died in DePere, Wisconsin. He was the first of the d'Amours to establish in the United States.

Download or read book Code Red written by E. J. Dionne and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An exquisitely timed book ... Code Red is a worthwhile exploration of the shared goals (and shared enemies) that unite moderates and progressives. But more than that, it is a sharp reminder that the common ground on which Dionne built his career has been badly eroded, with little prospect that it will soon be restored.” —The New York Times Book Review New York Times bestselling author and Washington Post columnist E. J. Dionne, Jr. sounds the alarm in Code Red, calling for an alliance between progressives and moderates to seize the moment and restore hope to America’s future for the 2020 presidential election. Will progressives and moderates feud while America burns? Or will these natural allies take advantage of the greatest opportunity since the New Deal Era to strengthen American democracy, foster social justice, and turn back the threats of the Trump Era? The United States stands at a crossroads. Broad and principled opposition to Donald Trump’s presidency has drawn millions of previously disengaged citizens to the public square and to the ballot boxes. This inspired and growing activism for social and political change hasn’t been seen since the days of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal policies and the Progressive and Civil Rights movements. But if progressives and moderates are unable—and unwilling—to overcome their differences, they could not only enable Trump to prevail again but also squander an occasion for launching a new era of reform. In Code Red, award-winning journalist E. J. Dionne, Jr., calls for a shared commitment to decency and a politics focused on freedom, fairness, and the future, encouraging progressives and moderates to explore common ground and expand the unity that brought about Democrat victories in the 2018 elections. He offers a unifying model for furthering progress with a Politics of Remedy, Dignity, and More: one that solves problems, resolve disputes, and moves forward; that sits at the heart of the demands for justice by both long-marginalized and recently-displaced groups; and that posits a positive future for Americans with more covered by health insurance, more with decent wages, more with good schools, more security from gun violence, more action to roll back climate change. Breaking through the partisan noise and cutting against conventional wisdom to provide a realistic look at political possibilities, Dionne offers a strategy for progressives and moderates to think more clearly and accept the responsibilities that history now imposes on them. Because at this point in our national story, change can’t wait.
