DRAFT REPORT: Rights and Title Interests in the Columbia Valley Transmission Project Area Martin: Auraville, in that country, yeah. He was the first farmer there, you know, he growed wheat, you know. 144 The 2007 Ktunaxa report suggests that the Kinbasket migration east was instigated by Paul Ignatius Kinbasket “sometime before 1840 and as a result of a peaceful arrangement made with the Ktunaxa.” Moreover, this same report notes that Baptise Morigeau, son of the original Francois Baptiste Morigeau, 145 is said to have described the migration to the present Shuswap settlement occurring during the time of Paul Ignatius Kinbasket, and not during the time of Paul Ignatius’s father. 146 The position of the Shuswap Indian Band concerning the “Kinbasket migration,” as presented in their 2008 Traditional Use Study and reiterated in their 2009 report for the Howser and Glacier Creek Hydroelectric Project, is based largely on the oral history of two sisters, Shelagh Dehart and Tracie Williams. The Shuswap Band has presented their version of the Kinbasket history on several occasions over the past five decades, among them the following: an article based on information by Tracie Williams that appeared originally in The Lake Windermere Valley Echo (19 March 1960) and was transcribed by anthropologist Claude Schaeffer in his fieldnotes. 147 interviews with Shelagh Dehart and Tracie Williams by broadcaster Imbert Orchard (1964) 148 ; 144 Available online: http://dspace.cc.uregina.ca/dspace/handle/10294/898. The present authors have not cross-checked the transcript of the interview with the original tape recording. 145 The 2007 Robertson study prepared for the Ktunaxa Nation cites a 1932 article written upon the death of Morigeau’s son, Baptiste Morigeau, stating that his father came to the East Kootenays in 1819 (p.22). The author suggests that information in the article indicates that Morigeau’s wife was not from the Kinbasket band, as some people may have assumed. We might note that the 1901 census provides Baptiste Morigeau’s birth date as 1842. He is said to have been born in the Columbia Valley. According to family genealogical research available online (http://www.forgue.com/WC21/WC21_007.htm), His older brother, Alexander Morigeau, was born 1838 in Jasper, Alberta. This seems to suggest that Francois Baptiste Morigeau travelled, as DeSmet noted in 1845. The genealogical data concerning Alexander has not been confirmed. Reel 3). 146 Robertson 2007, page 23, fn. 60. 147 “Shuswap,” The Lake Windermere Valley Echo (19 March 1960). Transcribed in Schaeffer (1934-1969, 148 Available online: http://dspace.cc.uregina.ca/dspace/handle/10294/910; http://dspace.cc.uregina.ca/dspace/handle/10294/996.

DRAFT REPORT: Rights and Title Interests in the Columbia Valley Transmission Project Area Tales of Windermere (compiled by Winnifred Weir, 1980, said to be based in part on her interviews with Shelagh Dehart and Tracie Williams) 149 ; Shelagh Dehart, The Kinbasket Migration and Other Indian History, edited by her granddaughter. Dusty Dehart (Dehart 2006); 150 and Shuswap Indian Band Traditional Use Study (2008); Mrs. Dehart and Mrs. Williams are two of the daughters of local non-Native farmer William Hobbs Palmer, from Nova Scotia, and Amelia Agnes Kinbasket, daughter of Chief Pierre Kinbasket (b. circa 1835) 151 , said to be the son of Paul Ignatius Kinbasket. Mrs. Dehart was born in 1910 at Stoddart Creek and in 1933 married Dino Dehart of Switzerland, after which she continued to live on family land at Stoddart Creek. Shelagh Dehart sincerely believes that the history of the Shuswap Indian Band has been misrepresented. She states in her 2006 book The Kinbasket Migration and Other Indian History: I have read many different versions and many untruths over the years about the history of the Kinbasket people, their migration and the other Shuswap Indians... 152 While the details of the events as set out in the above-noted various works vary, the Kinbasket granddaughters—as they are identified—are clear that their ancestors came from the Shuswap Lake area and migrated first to Kinbasket Lake and eventually moved south down the Columbia Valley to Windermere. Mrs. Dehart says in her 2006 book that the Ktunaxa resided farther south at Fort Steele. 153 Both women understand that their grandfather [Pierre Kinbasket] was young when brought here to the Columbia Valley. Mrs. Dehart tells how her great-great-grandfather, a man named Yelheelna, had first seen this area while “exploring” with friends during a hunting trip. Her comments indicate that travelling this far east was not part of these hunters’ routine: The elders tried to stop the explorers, they forbid them to keep going into enemy territory, the dangerous Kootenay Country but the young ones continued to explore. 154 149 Winnifred Ariel Weir (1980) Tales of the Windermere.
