Red River Selkirk Settlement Excellent Genealogical Compilation

Question

An old question from 2015 got me researching and I found a very nice website by Gary Still, who sadly passed away this past April.  The Ancester Index has a wealth of research, images and sources.  Mr. Still deserves hearty recognition for his compilation.

https://www.redriverancestry.ca/
This website is devoted to descendants of early explorers, fur traders and settlers who first inhabited the great Northwest Territory or Rupert’s Land, and more particularly the region of the Red River of the North.
