Notes

A genealogical history tracing the lineage of Jean-Baptiste Lagimodière and Marie-Anne Gaboury—the latter notably recognized as the first European woman to settle permanently in Western Canada—and their descendants, including their grandson, Louis Riel. The work documents successive generations over a 250-year span, focusing on familial connections, marriages, and descendants. The final leaves include blank genealogical charts intended for the continuation of family records by later generations.
