Jennie, If you are using the information, in the history section of this website, regarding the indigenous people of the area, it is not correct.
Bancroft is in the traditional and unceded territory of the Algonquin Nation. The Kijicho Manito Madaouskarini band has been here since time immemorial.
Please contact the Kijicho Manito Madaouskarini Algonquin Nation Land Claim office for information. noreentinney@gmail.com
Regarding the history of land rights and native people in Bancroft and North Hastings, legally these lands were ceded to the Crown by the Williams Treaty of 1819 and 1823 (Treaty #27). There is no history of any native peoples inhabiting the immediate area until the Baptiste family settled on Baptiste Lake in the 1850’s or 1860’s. The early surveyor J.P.Catty reports hardly any natives in his travels in 1819; likewise by John Walpole in 1827.
This is a very attractive and well-constructed website. (Although I think it is important that you verify what was written about the indigenous people — see someone’s comment, above). Idly browsing through possible places to rent a cottage this summer, your website has made me much more inclined to choose the Bancroft area. Congratulations to your business association for having had constructed this professional and useful website. Sarah in Ottawa.
Thanks for everything you guys do! What a great site!
