Hudson's Bay Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Hudson's Bay Company building in Montreal The Hudson's Bay Company is the oldest corporation in Canada and is one of the oldest in the world still in existance. It was formed as an English corporation on May 2, , and was given a Royal Charter by King Charles II of England . The charter granted it a monopoly over the Indian Trade , especially fur trade, in the region watered by all rivers and streams flowing into Hudson Bay in northern Canada, an area known as Rupert's Land . This region constitutes 1.5 million square miles, over one-third the area of modern-day Canada. In , the North West Company of Montréal and the Hudson's Bay Company merged, with a combined territory that was extended by a license to the

Prince Rupert
The Hudson's Bay Company is Formed The king of England's cousin, Prince Rupert, knew that there was money to be made in the fur trade. The king gave Prince Rupert and his partners (known as "The Company of Adventurers Adventurers of England tradeing into Hudsons Bay") a charter , which gave the company a monopoly . On May 6, 1670, Hudson's Bay Company (or HBC, for short) was formed. It was given all the land whose rivers drained into the Hudson Bay, which became known as Rupert's Land. The HBC motto is " pro pelle cutem, " which may have a clever double meaning. One interpetation is that it means they wanted the skin, cutem , for the sake of the fleece, pro pelle . The other is that it means "for the pelts which we collect, we risk our skins." They believed they were taking a risk with their money by going into the business. For the traders in Canada, the risk could even more real: weather, accidents, animals, or hostile traders could kill them!
Granting of Charter Business was very profitable from 1714 until the late 1740s.

The History of the Fur Trade Route 1600s: The early settlers In the early 1600s French settlers and explorers were trading furs with the native people of Eastern Canada. As the demand for furs in Europe increased traders started to look further afield for a larger supply. Early traders and missionaries travelled up the St Lawrence, the Ottawa and the Mattawa rivers to Lake Nipissing and on down the French river to Georgian Bay. By the last quarter of the 1600s the traders or "Coureurs de bois" had significantly increased and were travelling as far west as Lake Superior. At the same time the English were establishing the Hudsons Bay Company on Hudsons and James Bay. They set up many trading posts and furs were shipped back to England every summer when the bay was clear of ice. The French overland trading increased as the coureur de bois improved their rapport with the native North Americans often speaking 2 or 3 languages. They had excellent wilderness skills and appreciation of native culture and lifestyles. Indeed many relationships were formed and children were born that combined the two cultures. The 1700s: Pushing ever west and north in search of more furs Soon after 1700 the intensive trade had begun to have an effect on the wildlife population in the great lakes area and the French began to look further north and west for a greater supply. Explorations both northward towards Hudsons Bay and northwest towards Lake Winnipeg were mounted. Soon after 1731 La Verendrye and his four sons covered huge distances establishing many trading posts as far north as the Saskatchewan River.

Early Census, Rosters, and Pioneers Skip to census for 1850 and later Skip history background and pioneer lists. Go to Early Records Early records labeled "Clackamas County" actually include all of what is now Multnomah County, all of the counties north of Marion (Champoeg) and east of the Cascades, parts of Washington County, and even a portion of Washington State. This site's Changing County Borders page details when and how areas were subtracted or added to Clackamas County. The first US Census of the Oregon country was in 1850. Oregonians who arrived prior to this census are listed in a variety of sources such as unofficial census lists, pioneer societies, land claim records, and rosters of wagon train members. Fortunately for family history researchers, historians have made a tremendous effort to collect and list the names of these early Oregon settlers. Clackamas County is a good source for these early records. Before American government in the Oregon country, most records found their way to Oregon City, then the only major settlement outside of the missions and the Hudson Bay Company outposts. SOME HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: There is no census of the Native American population of the region before 1870. By the time of the first emigration on the Oregon Trail1841very few of Clackamas County's first people remained. Unlike the censuses of later years, early rosters do list African Americans and other non-whites as well as mixed-race people who were settlers or employed by fur trade companies or the missions.

A BRIEF HISTORY of TRAPPING
Aboriginal peoples in North America were already involved in the fur trade when the Europeans first arrived on the shores of this continent. Furs provided them with a source of food, clothing, shelter, and ornaments. The creator also held a sacred relationship between the Ojibway and the animals that inhabit the earth. Intensive trading activities took place among tribes through out the continent with furs playing a vital role in the development of the Aboriginal Nations.
In 1947, as a result of the funding from Indian and Northern Affairs, the Province of Ontario introduced the Registered Trap Line System. The trap line boundary areas were modeled after traditional family trapping grounds established by the Ojibway Nation, generations before. We continue to use these trapping areas today.
TREATY #3 TRAPPING HARMONIZATION AGREEMENT
Treaty # 3 and the Ministry of Natural Resources have been negotiating the Trapping Harmonization Agreement since 1992. Parties to the Agreement are the Anishinaabe Nation of Treaty # 3, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Department of Indian Affairs. Signing off the Agreement is expected in the Spring of 2002.

Visit Yolanda's Website return home THE NORTH SHORE..including ELLIOT LAKE A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE NORTH SHORE European exploration of the area we now call Northern Ontario began in the early 1600s. These early French and English explorers were searching for a shorter trade route to the Pacific Ocean and Asia. By the mid-1600s, it had become very clear that no easy route to Asia existed. Initially, the discovery of New France (now Canada) was important to France an the rest of Europe because of its new-found wealth of furs. Sprawling farmlands and over-harvesting in the Old World resulted in scarcity and high prices for beaver pelts to feed the demand for the fashionable felt hat. Along the North Channel of Lake Huron, the Mississaugi First Nation people hunted and trapped these animals for food, clothing and utensils long before the European traders arrived. To the French traders exploring with Samuel de Champlain in 1608, and to those who followed, New France was a wonderland. The First Nation peoples did the hunting, cured the hides, and transported them in great bundles over long distances to barter for beads, blankets, coloured cloth, iron hatchets, ammunition, and brandy. The First Nations people assisted in diverting the fur trade from the North Channel to the new route. In response, a group of Montreal merchants formed the North West Company to recapture the great lakes fur trade. The struggle manifested in the construction of trading posts as territorial markers would continue for many years until finally the cost of transporting cargo over the longer Great Lakes route would mean the North West Company could no longer compete. The two companies were merged in 1821 and the legacy of trading posts throughout Rupert's Land became the property of the Hudson's Bay Company.

January 16, 1833 Letter From Ft. Vancouver to Cambridge, Mass.
The above folded letter may look rather ordinary but it is far from it. It contains a letter written by Nathaniel Wyeth at Fort Vancouver on January 16, 1833 addressed to his brother Jacob Wyeth in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is endorsed "Fav(or) of the Hon. Hudsons Bay Co." at lower left. The letter was carried by the Hudson Bay Company's courier to Montreal, Canada where it entered the mails on August 13, 1833. It received the Montreal postmark as well as the "Paid" and "6" (pence) rating which covered the charge from Montreal to the United States line. It entered the United States mails from a steamboat that had crossed via Lake Champlain and entered at Whitehall, New York. The red manuscript "B" signifies that it was received from a steamboat. The "18 3/4" cents due rating was applied at Whitehall for the postage from there to Cambridge, Massachusetts. Nathaniel Wyeth was a noted fur trader who had continued west after the fur trade rendezvous at Pierre's Hole (Wyoming) in 1832. He was at Fort Vancouver in an attempt to reach an accommodation with Hudson Bay Company for supplies. This letter mentions his journey to the West Coast and plans for his return including "My party have now all left me, I have but two men whom I have hired to return with me, but do not think I shall go with these alone."

Observations on the Proposed Annexation of Rupert's Land and the Monopoly Rights of the Hudson's Bay Company
Confidential Despatch to the Secretary of State for the Colonies
Registered CO Montreal March 13-1858 March 30, 1858. Sir, Although my mission from the Colonial office is merely an exploring one yet much has come under my notice both from experience in the country and intercourse with all classes English, French, Canadian, Half Breeds and Indians inhabiting the H.B. Territory. I therefore take the liberty of offering a few remarks and suggestions valuable only perhaps because coming from an impartial observer like myself. The question which I now enter upon has been some time before the Political world, both in England, and in Canada and I do not think its solution has yet been arrived at either in The House of Assembly in Canada, nor by the Committee of the House of Commons last year. The Question is "Is there a better System of Government for The North American Indian Territories than that of The Hudson Bay Company and if there be" "What is it"? The object of the enquiry before the House of Assembly in Canada, is, (as I understand it) to ascertain what government would be best adapted to further the civilisation of the whole country at present under the sway of The Hudson Bay Company.

    By Lisa Poitras, a fellow graduate student at the U. of W. The Poitras family has existed on the prairies since at least the late 18th century when Andre Poitras Sr ventured west where he became employed by North West Company. He was the first generation within the family, to have married an Amerindienne woman. To which Aboriginal group she belonged, however, we do not know. Andre Sr was a fifth generation Canadien. His parents were Michel Poitras and Marguerite Harnois, who were married in St. Foy, Quebec, in 1751. Michel's parents were Joseph Lucien Poitras and Genevieve Moisan who had been married on November 24, 1708. Joseph Lucien's father, Jean, was the first generation Canadien. He married Marie St. Vie in Quebec City on August 27, 1664. His parents, migrated to the New World from France; Laurent Poitras from the region of Poitu and Renee Bertin from the outskirts of Paris. Gabriel Poitras' wife, Isabelle Malaterre, was the sister of Marie Malaterre, who was Louis Riel's wife's mother! Gabriel's brother, Pierre, incidentally, was a member of Louis Riel's provisional government of 1870.

    SOME HERALDIC PUZZLES
    By John J. Kennedy, PhD.

    The Enigma of Hudson's Ancestry H udson's Bay today is an interesting part of the dynamic Canadian north. It takes its name from Henry Hudson, the English explorer. Hudson, after voyaging to the river, named in his honour, in New York for the Dutch, set sailing on an English venture to explore the Northwest Passage, this was thought, by the late medieval and early modern explorers of the Americas, to be the fast route to the far Orient. By following this fabled passage, it was hoped the monopoly of the Portuguese and later the Spaniards in the lucrative spice and silk trades could be broken. The quest for this Nothwest passage was to dominate a number of explorations of our continent.
    We do know that our navigator did have connections with the Muscovy Company (otherwise known as the Worshipful Company and Fellowship of the Merchant Adventurers trading to Muscovia, or the Russian Merchants). Rodney Dennys, the present Somerset herald of Arms at the College of Arms, informs us that, "these merchants traded cloth of all sorts to Russia and also ‘much defective Wines and fruits, not fit to be spent in this Kingdom (of England)', together with all sorts of English commodities. In return they imported skins, fish, caviar, potash, isinglass and much else besides" (Dennys, 1975: 149). It was one of the Muscovy Company's vessels that Hudson used on his voyage to Canada. This might also indicate that Hudson was familiar with the perils of sailing in the far north and with the dangers of ice floes and icebergs, perhaps even with wintering over in a given location, before having entered Canadian waters.

    History of the Dryden Area Written by Mel Fisher, November 2000 Summary In 1896, the Hon. John Dryden, Ontario Minister of Agriculture, arranged for the founding of a pioneer farm within Dryden's present townsite, and from this developed an agricultural community supplying the mining and logging camps in its hinterland. Transportation links by rail and water, and the water power from the river encouraged the communities' development as a service centre and forest products manufacturer. The opening of the Trans Canada Highway in 1935 boosted tourism to an important part of the economy. The Town of Dryden was incorporated in 1910, and expanded its boundaries several times before amalgamating with the neighbouring municipality, the Township of Barclay, to form the new "City of Dryden" on January 1, 1998. Prehistory The Dryden area was part of the Ojibway nation, which covered a large area from Lake Huron in the east to Lake of the Woods and beyond, disputed by Cree from the north, and Sioux from the south. The Ojibway was a nomadic culture, groups from family to village size moving over the land with the seasons and the availability of game or the necessities of life, so that permanent or lasting settlements were not made. It is believed that the Bending Lake/Turtle River area was a meeting place for aboriginal peoples ranging from as far away as the southern US and much of central Canada, for trade and cultural exchange, and there is still evidence of ancient occupancy there in the form of pictographs, artifacts, burial grounds, and one might consider this our prehistoric centre. Bending Lake is in the triangle between Dryden, Ignace, and Atikokan.

    ARCTIC CHRONOLOGY A Postal History Gallery of Related Events Discoveries in the Arctic The exploration of the North has extended over five hundred years and rather than finding a northwest passage to the eastern trade, it discovered a great fur trade and valuable fisheries, and even great oil fields. Traveling in vulnerable wooden ships first powered by only sails, they gradually changed to powerful new and innovative vehicles and a commercial trade in the north was established. Early crews were often separated from their homes for years and some never returned. While hopes of finding a northwest passage was the initial objective, the ice conditions discouraged expectations of success. Attempts to reach the north pole itself followed using stronger ships with newer designs as a base for the dashes to the almost mythical prize. Balloons and the new dirigibles were tried, followed by airships and submarines. When the pole itself was finally reached, it proved to be a vain goal since it was just a point on the ice above a moving body of water. The oceans of the Arctic basin and the frozen lands around it are now recognized as important study areas, and over the years virtually all exploration parties became directed toward studies of some kind.

    By sea, Captain Robert Gray and his crew aboard the Lady Washington became the first known Americans to land on the west coast of North America. They landed in 1788 near present day Tillamook Bay, Oregon. Gray traded with local natives for sea otter pelts, which he then traded in the Orient. On their return to Boston they became the first American crew to circumnavigate the globe. During Captain Gray's second voyage to the Northwest, he was commanding the Columbia Rediviva, a 220 ton, 83 foot long vessel built in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1787. On May 11, 1792 it became the first US ship to enter the "Columbia" river and where the mighty river gained its name. Gray's efforts gave the United States its first claim to the Pacific Northwest.
