Hello:
The Library & Archives Canada has recently been adding information to their website
relating to this family and others in Manitoba. In the late 1800's various members of
the family applied to receive "scrip" and these applications provide additional
information on the family. For example, here's something on their daughter, Nancy Anne
Calder:
Born: 1805.
North West Territories, Canada.
Died: 1896.
Married to: Samuel Foulds.
Place of Residence: - St. James, Manitoba on June 30, 1875.
Documentation:
Library and Archives Canada, Online MIKAN no. 1500984 - Scrip affidavit for Foulds, Nancy,
widow of Samuel Foulds; born: 1805; father: James Calder (Scot); mother: Nancy (Metis);
claim no.: 1636; date of issue: Sept. 20, 1876.
I hope this helps!
Regards,
John B. Calder
Cambridge, Ontario
