Hi Mark,
How are things?? I have located my GreatGrandmother's Baptismal record and her Marriage Certificate. Strange thing though... I had to dig into the Indain Registers for Temiscamingue/Abitibe to find them. I guess that is why it was so hard for me to find any good information on Jane Poslon( My GGGrandmother) Believe me.... it took days to go through the Indian Registers database. I got lucky and spotted her name amongst the chicken scratch. I am hoping that Indian Affairs will add these documents to my file.
I am not giving up on this because I submitted my application for Indian Status and Indian Affairs refuses to give me a YES or NO as to whether I should be a status Indian. They keep telling me to get them a family members status # and they will re-open my file. If I can get Jane Polson's Status info I believe I will receive my status.
If you have anything you think might help me out or if you have any advice you may want to share by all means keep me posted.
Have a Great Day!!!!
Corey
