My trip across the Churchill River to visit the ruins of Fort Prince of Wales and my final day in Churchill. 

Strolling around the small community of Churchill and getting a sense of where everything is and visiting various sites to gather information. My plans got changed due to the nesting terns. 

A train ride is always a fun adventure and this proved to be similar to a train trip I made fifty-seven years earlier.

The road trip that took me from Nova Scotia to Winnipeg in my quest for knowledge.

We look at how Colin Sinclair was reunited with his family and how he lived out his life at the Red River Colony.  Reflection on Nahoway's life.

William Sinclair died 20 April 1818.  What happened to Nahoway and her family after his death?

We catch up with William and find out what he had been up to while we spent time with Colin Robertson. And we look more closely at why Nahoway wanted me to find Colin Robertson. It all makes sense now.

The North West Company was at war with the Hudson's Bay Company and were determined to destroy the Red River Colony in 1816. The history books place the responsibility for the destruction on the shoulders of the Metis, but according to Colin Robertson and James Bird and the accounts they share of the Seven Oaks Massacre, blame in truth lies solely with the North West Company.

Robertson re-established the Red River Colony by offering the settlers who remained a chance to begin again. It would not turn out as he had hoped. 

Robertson details in his journal of the travel between Terrebonne, Quebec and the Red River Colony, a journey that took 47 days.  They spent the night of July 6th on a piece of geography that is precious to me.
