Hudson's Bay Company fonds

  • GPR gpr-2650
  • Fonds
  • 1834-1863

The fonds consists of two fur-trade ledgers which detail transactions between the Hudson's Bay Company at Dunvegan and individuals trading with this post, including Tranquille, La Glace and L'Eau, who were leaders of the Beaver First Nation from the Grande Prairie. The first ledger (8 ½ x 13" and 160 pages) dates between 1834 and 1840, and the second ledger (9 ½ x 14" and 160 pages) is from 1861-1863. The ledgers disclose what goods were on hand at Dunvegan at the time and the kinds of furs being trapped in the area.
