Unknown Speaker 0:00
marry the right
Unknown Speaker 0:03
one married veal
Unknown Speaker 0:05
on the river
Unknown Speaker 0:09
and therefore they got to live on Saltspring because the land that we live themselves
Unknown Speaker 0:15
was in the land
Unknown Speaker 0:21
the big
Unknown Speaker 0:25
fight
Unknown Speaker 0:27
the other two systems of
Unknown Speaker 0:31
Samsung live on the north end
Unknown Speaker 0:34
of Saltspring Island and they were given land by the Indians
Unknown Speaker 0:40
and the racist that racist island because
Unknown Speaker 0:43
Georgia
Unknown Speaker 0:45
races
Unknown Speaker 0:50
to George rice because he had married some feels that How come all this land was given to
Unknown Speaker 0:59
families that was Indian land
Unknown Speaker 1:03
otherwise
Unknown Speaker 1:05
I know because my dad used to take
Unknown Speaker 1:08
time out
Unknown Speaker 1:10
to visit the sisters
Unknown Speaker 1:18
who should talk to you right
Unknown Speaker 1:22
now even my dad even my grandfather
Unknown Speaker 1:27
was on read Island
Unknown Speaker 1:31
was allowed grandfather was allowed to stay
Unknown Speaker 1:36
on the farm my grandmother was
Unknown Speaker 1:38
from seashells
Unknown Speaker 1:40
and the Indians
Unknown Speaker 1:47
love these things happen because of the Indian women marrying these white men
Unknown Speaker 1:54
find that
Unknown Speaker 1:56
they didn't grow up and told me to
Unknown Speaker 1:59
look for somebody look for a family research the Indian men don't research that
Unknown Speaker 2:07
well you have to have somebody to read those Indian names and you can tell exactly when
Unknown Speaker 2:20
you understand that? Yes yes.
Unknown Speaker 2:22
So therefore you have to
Unknown Speaker 2:25
you know Indian being
Unknown Speaker 2:27
little
Unknown Speaker 2:33
and then you have to research
Unknown Speaker 2:35
research
Unknown Speaker 2:37
but my grandfather
Unknown Speaker 2:40
George
Unknown Speaker 2:47
and when you find these
Unknown Speaker 2:53
it's important unless it's you know, private information in
Unknown Speaker 2:59
the land liens on all the land
Unknown Speaker 3:03
they had a place to go shoot ducks they had a place to dry fish every Portland community really that's
Unknown Speaker 3:12
quite a bit of the beaches
Unknown Speaker 3:15
they went to camp there does
Unknown Speaker 3:19
tend to do that for the whole side for five days
Unknown Speaker 3:36
the whole country was there
Unknown Speaker 3:40
this ownership were certain areas restricted to certain families
Unknown Speaker 3:44
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 3:46
You talk a bit about that from
Unknown Speaker 3:49
Tom's family. Yeah, yeah well
Unknown Speaker 3:56
she would come all these parcels of land where you walk appeal stay
Unknown Speaker 4:05
in the Samsung booth Samsung brands
Unknown Speaker 4:13
should we charge
Unknown Speaker 4:15
he'd be a bit chilly where he is.
Unknown Speaker 4:18
And that was given to them by like see there is only one boy in
Unknown Speaker 4:26
Milan was always left to the male.
Unknown Speaker 4:32
He was allowed to give these precious land
Unknown Speaker 4:38
pieces of land his land
Unknown Speaker 4:41
on Saltspring Island sounds
Unknown Speaker 4:45
interesting. Do you remember the Indian names of those women? Of course this meal but I have it son here somewhere. But the guy he wants to talk to Rocky Samsung. We know rocky he's the all the names
Unknown Speaker 4:59
of course.
Unknown Speaker 5:00
Just
Unknown Speaker 5:03
it's very interesting
Unknown Speaker 5:09
so do you recall any place names on Saltspring
Unknown Speaker 5:12
Oh, I'm not nothing to names. The profit was normal
Unknown Speaker 5:18
another place was Walker's reverencing
Unknown Speaker 5:24
I know that for a fact because when I was about eight years old my dad went to walk
Unknown Speaker 5:31
and there was two guys they had
Unknown Speaker 5:36
their lambda school when
Unknown Speaker 5:41
my dad was put the book on the beach, take that brochure and you
Unknown Speaker 5:46
were all invited to the house.
Unknown Speaker 5:49
And the little fella on the Hill in a cabin that can go look there you find the cabin
Unknown Speaker 5:54
and they call him
Unknown Speaker 5:57
what they must
Unknown Speaker 6:01
then cheer me up.
Unknown Speaker 6:04
But these two brothers went up and paid him $15 a year to stay on this wall
Unknown Speaker 6:11
and against him on $1 bills per watch.
Unknown Speaker 6:16
He was let them stay there for $15 a year.
Unknown Speaker 6:20
He always thought
Unknown Speaker 6:24
that was an inch bubble over that I told him find up on the hill
Unknown Speaker 6:31
patients they are the farmers there was
Unknown Speaker 6:36
a little cabin with
Unknown Speaker 6:39
men
Unknown Speaker 6:41
he had made
Unknown Speaker 6:43
it relate to
Unknown Speaker 6:45
you know Vandy makes Yes Do you think he was a tenant there because snows the heat all
Unknown Speaker 6:51
the guys that
Unknown Speaker 6:55
was leasing it for $15
Unknown Speaker 7:00
So that'd be quite a waste how long ago that
Unknown Speaker 7:09
been here a long time and all this information as to
Unknown Speaker 7:14
you're still here oh yeah that image still here but
Unknown Speaker 7:23
because he's one of the guys are so good on camera on the beach
Unknown Speaker 7:34
get him a night together and he'd know being named
Unknown Speaker 7:40
becomes
Unknown Speaker 7:48
Jimmy Ryan
Unknown Speaker 7:53
he could talk
Unknown Speaker 7:56
we've heard of this name this Ryan so he lived on Saltspring
Unknown Speaker 8:01
and what was his connection to the native people? I don't really know
Unknown Speaker 8:15
so quite a few of you maybe research in history most of the white
Unknown Speaker 8:23
pieces of
Unknown Speaker 8:37
Indian men
Unknown Speaker 8:47
but most of Saltspring is in your land.
Unknown Speaker 8:51
Even the job where the jobs discoveries in this end they were missing but I don't know the name
Unknown Speaker 8:59
of the child that says Henry would know Yeah, that's what you're talking about with canal area know that
Unknown Speaker 9:11
there would
Unknown Speaker 9:12
be a sea bass there they were jabs at
Unknown Speaker 9:24
Oh yeah, it was all taken in the war.
Unknown Speaker 9:27
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 9:30
They said the castle
Unknown Speaker 9:37
you say the Indians? Well, I mean, they obviously have.
Unknown Speaker 9:40
So who would have gone to Saltspring native groups.
Unknown Speaker 9:44
communities? I think
Unknown Speaker 9:46
he was showing you'd have to ask Henry.
Unknown Speaker 9:54
He lived in Connecticut. But most of the news and analysis were from
Unknown Speaker 10:00
somewhere else
Unknown Speaker 10:01
but the parents
Unknown Speaker 10:06
stole a country
Unknown Speaker 10:09
I think semesters
Unknown Speaker 10:13
the old guy
Unknown Speaker 10:18
loves them
Unknown Speaker 10:24
two needs to
Unknown Speaker 10:26
come out to people
Unknown Speaker 10:33
like us people, you know, through marriage and that connected all over the place. Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 10:39
Like you said
Unknown Speaker 10:41
your ancestor was a C sharp woman. Clap them out. Yeah, who would have been here she's living off cheaper Island
Unknown Speaker 10:49
outside of the seashell there, but she was an Indian. Therefore, that's how grandpa Landsman
Unknown Speaker 10:56
analysis
Unknown Speaker 10:58
chumminess country you see that in the map there in
Unknown Speaker 11:02
two minutes computation quite a bit yeah
Unknown Speaker 11:18
so the nature of this land you know, like the land that Tommy had gave to his sisters
Unknown Speaker 11:25
How would this be recognized by other native people? We all know about it we all know one another because I told him see the races didn't know they were related to the
Unknown Speaker 11:36
Samsung
Unknown Speaker 11:38
neither one of them knew who was related
Unknown Speaker 11:43
I had a past
Unknown Speaker 11:45
this was those sisters you were talking Yeah, yeah. Interesting.
Unknown Speaker 11:51
But they were also carefully all the people like Vicky deal one of the go to range girls my dad said no, no, he knew we didn't know
Unknown Speaker 12:03
Vicki one but one of the boys went on the race.
Unknown Speaker 12:08
My Dad No
Unknown Speaker 12:10
that was it. So no,
Unknown Speaker 12:13
he knew that because
Unknown Speaker 12:18
we restricted that
Unknown Speaker 12:22
we have
Unknown Speaker 12:31
Did you get
Unknown Speaker 12:34
a far like on the history? Oh, quite a bit of stuff.
Unknown Speaker 12:41
There's so many different ways while you're trying to do it now. So well occupied by white settlers and stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker 12:49
It's to educate those white settlers just about the past when
Unknown Speaker 12:56
we were doing work in the archives, archives
Unknown Speaker 13:02
history in the archives
Unknown Speaker 13:11
and I think once people know about it, they'll think differently about the place now I mean, this is what I think because most people on Saltspring think you know Celltrion just started 150 years ago, Bonito.
Unknown Speaker 13:23
Maori from New Zealand.
Unknown Speaker 13:26
I connect Delta UE I'm a member of nightowl who which is a big tribe down there.
Unknown Speaker 13:32
I've never met a Maori now funny thing I heard about was in chief
Unknown Speaker 13:41
we taught him
Unknown Speaker 13:46
to fly from your country. Well, my dad immigrated here in the 50s but my mom's side my mum's from Vancouver and her parents. They were Norwegian and English remove their need Canadians
Unknown Speaker 13:59
go back in Vancouver history anyway.
Unknown Speaker 14:02
So my native side is from New Zealand
Unknown Speaker 14:06
I was there two years ago
Unknown Speaker 14:09
and to me it's fascinating because the history of the peoples are so similar
Unknown Speaker 14:14
what happened to Native people here what happened to the mall? Very similar. I see on a news there was this day we have a selling the land. You know what happens? Why don't they stop selling the land
Unknown Speaker 14:27
and land the selling?
Unknown Speaker 14:31
Sure, you know, there's just like somebody coming here and saying okay, I'm going to Sony alone. You lost my alarm, why not sell it.
Unknown Speaker 14:40
So nobody thinks that that they should stop
Unknown Speaker 14:45
selling the land to all this land is finished.
Unknown Speaker 14:49
And then go from there.
Unknown Speaker 14:51
This would be the easiest.
Unknown Speaker 14:55
Either pro Henry Aboriginal looking for a house. nastily Jimmy was one
Unknown Speaker 15:00
At 85 years old, I thought you
Unknown Speaker 15:04
try to get him to build a little house on
Unknown Speaker 15:09
Oh, they have no money. The lawyers the poor guy. He was living my nieces.
Unknown Speaker 15:15
And they're supposed to look after the elders
Unknown Speaker 15:18
to who's looking after them
Unknown Speaker 15:23
well, I know I know. I know he was involved in trying to get that property on the south end of Cooper Island return
Unknown Speaker 15:35
Yeah, a bay it's called lammeter. Meltzer.
Unknown Speaker 15:41
Well, he knows that Hemi Eddie's
Unknown Speaker 15:45
family goes back to the first visit of Vancouver Island.
Unknown Speaker 15:51
His grandfather had the first feature is on Cuba. And I don't care hotels, it differences that's the way it was.
Unknown Speaker 16:00
And then they move on to the analysis
Unknown Speaker 16:03
and the all around
Unknown Speaker 16:05
but he was the first
Unknown Speaker 16:11
rock
Unknown Speaker 16:13
star Samson as
Unknown Speaker 16:15
I told Rocky,
Unknown Speaker 16:17
switch research at rocket will find that to the average family
Unknown Speaker 16:23
member right, I tell him that you should achieve
Unknown Speaker 16:29
the multibillion
Unknown Speaker 16:31
dollar that's all private land now. They're trying to get it back.
Unknown Speaker 16:36
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, I talked to Henry about that big 100 acres there. It was confiscated after the I don't know if you heard it, you know, knew about the incident that happened there. gunboat attack village way back. Then after that, they wouldn't allow any nice Indian people to live there when they started coming back. But the main part of that land is still privately held.
Unknown Speaker 17:01
I know they're trying to get it I mean, that's where Henry should live.
Unknown Speaker 17:04
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 17:08
We can very
Unknown Speaker 17:13
loosely saying with a tremendous bay there. Well, he's been when money
Unknown Speaker 17:21
moved up. Nikki
Unknown Speaker 17:24
has the house.
Unknown Speaker 17:27
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 17:33
Nice to see.
Unknown Speaker 17:40
This a man like that he knows so much about people's history.
Unknown Speaker 17:45
And you should talk to him because he can tell you.
Unknown Speaker 17:50
Most of
Unknown Speaker 17:53
most young people like Bobby, who's another generation,
Unknown Speaker 17:58
and lots of times when they were playing around not listening.
Unknown Speaker 18:06
Did you just before we started you were telling me about how your grandfather used to teach you could you repeat that? That's true.
Unknown Speaker 18:12
What? You said something about
Unknown Speaker 18:15
your grandfather, making sure like how he taught you? Oh, that's obviously active. 108 years old. We all calm him down.
Unknown Speaker 18:23
And he would tell me a story. He would tell me information. Then a month later he'd asked me and I had to repeat it. Word for word.
Unknown Speaker 18:35
If I missed one word,
Unknown Speaker 18:37
we know the month
Unknown Speaker 18:39
especially healthy choices should be fun.
Unknown Speaker 18:42
And then
Unknown Speaker 18:44
one day
Unknown Speaker 18:47
you have to see happens we tell those four families
Unknown Speaker 18:52
so that
Unknown Speaker 18:54
they didn't even know they were related.
Unknown Speaker 18:59
So anyway, they found out something I can't figure that out. But status
Unknown Speaker 19:08
status. Money went down from my status. I wasn't going to get it because you're
Unknown Speaker 19:15
Indian people that need homes and needs stoves and
Unknown Speaker 19:20
like take it from
Unknown Speaker 19:22
me. No.
Unknown Speaker 19:24
I am like my grandfather.
Unknown Speaker 19:28
My Dad
Unknown Speaker 19:36
No, no. Why did you just give me nothing? Well, we give up our our
Unknown Speaker 19:41
our natural status for this Indian status.
Unknown Speaker 19:45
We don't have a right to fame.
Unknown Speaker 19:48
I don't think that's right. No, and this is a big difference between Canada and New Zealand.
Unknown Speaker 19:54
In New Zealand, the tribe decides who the member is. And it's all done through genealogy. Oh,
Unknown Speaker 20:00
So, like that's I'm a full fledged member and I tahu all the rights privileges. Yeah. Are you
Unknown Speaker 20:07
lonely? Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 20:10
No, not full blooded. You see, that's the difference in New Zealand. They don't pay attention to the blood quotient. It's your knowledge of the culture and your your your descent. Like I buy blood, I'm one eight Maori, but
Unknown Speaker 20:25
by my focus off the Marini genealogy, full fledged member because my ancestors certain lands, grandmother and like, my father, you know, they all participated in the culture. He had our fishing and hunting grounds that we went to and he also culture that why does
Unknown Speaker 20:46
the history of
Unknown Speaker 20:49
Salisbury
Unknown Speaker 20:51
they see the good parts, I was telling him to go through to one of your meetings and tell them leave it alone. Because once you make the plan, you can.
Unknown Speaker 21:01
You can, you can steam your comms, you know, the union's they go on, they dig a big hole in the ground. And they put a bunch of rocks in there. And they build a fire on it.
Unknown Speaker 21:12
And then they go and take their plants,
Unknown Speaker 21:15
the private rooms
Unknown Speaker 21:17
they take the washer clams and dump them on the hot drops and then
Unknown Speaker 21:23
bam, steam off. And they put them on sticks perspective fire.
Unknown Speaker 21:30
So no, that's what they do on
Unknown Speaker 21:33
the template there. They
Unknown Speaker 21:36
stay right there.
Unknown Speaker 21:38
Right across, I think from the moment store long Harbor, there's a long Harbor. And unless that's released to camp, as we
Unknown Speaker 21:48
found,
Unknown Speaker 21:50
really, and they would do this, not they make a profit.
Unknown Speaker 21:55
Able to hunt
Unknown Speaker 21:58
they won't be able to start a fire won't even be able to cancel it.
Unknown Speaker 22:03
So why is
Unknown Speaker 22:06
it? Yeah, it does come up. But you know, they they don't consult, you know, they just don't let the native people know what they're doing. And of course, you know, the native bands are all divided. The government, then Council, they're looking after their own interests.
Unknown Speaker 22:21
Don't always doesn't always include the interest of all the people who see that. That's not the traditional government. It wasn't in the Maori culture and it isn't in the Indian culture. Traditional government was participatory. Everybody had a say, everybody was included. It's not the way anymore. See they've done yeah.
Unknown Speaker 22:38
Well, that's I mean, the sugar
Unknown Speaker 22:41
my grandfather's
Unknown Speaker 22:43
my adopted father, we're talking about two people I was talking about. I was Jack the author in college everybody underneath this adopted grandfather was something that my dad and the families were told to manage and they cancer and dry the fish fish efficient rather fish. No, that's should be taken into consideration.
Unknown Speaker 23:05
And another place to go to to my to them parents were down to the point
Unknown Speaker 23:14
they left
Unknown Speaker 23:18
and we call them babysitting on that one the woman would volunteer to
Unknown Speaker 23:23
lameness
Unknown Speaker 23:26
in the trunk of the gown
Unknown Speaker 23:30
the people from all over the place saw me and dumped out their shoes
Unknown Speaker 23:36
so they had to find a nursing mother. So they found my grandmother's sister other schemes Mrs. George and they flipped mum
Unknown Speaker 23:49
and my mother
Unknown Speaker 23:52
that's why I haven't found
Unknown Speaker 23:57
so you find out and then another face on this end of Eliana
Unknown Speaker 24:05
James has
Unknown Speaker 24:07
been a little Chef Oh long the point
Unknown Speaker 24:11
when the salmon came in the dog
Unknown Speaker 24:16
do the fishing
Unknown Speaker 24:22
that's all they make parks. Women don't really have a lot of plans
Unknown Speaker 24:29
to even make it
Unknown Speaker 24:33
so that's interesting. You told me about going to sock stream when you were younger. Could you describe that maybe more? Well
Unknown Speaker 24:42
there's a demo at Star was
Unknown Speaker 24:46
on that side there was a long standing
Unknown Speaker 24:51
them they're really loud.
Unknown Speaker 24:54
But then we will have temps on speech.
Unknown Speaker 24:58
In which to the for the tight
Unknown Speaker 25:00
Okay
Unknown Speaker 25:04
I'm here with summertime okay was the low daytime
Unknown Speaker 25:09
so that's long harbor so not Ganges harbor but the next one over
Unknown Speaker 25:15
Oh

Unknown Speaker 25:27
southwest
Unknown Speaker 25:30
booth canal
Unknown Speaker 25:32

Unknown Speaker 25:45
YZ with the cats
Unknown Speaker 25:47

Unknown Speaker 26:01
I
Unknown Speaker 26:06
can help you find
Unknown Speaker 26:08
a white sheet of paper up here in the shelf
Unknown Speaker 26:12
shelf over here
Unknown Speaker 26:17
this whole bunch of pieces of paper together
Unknown Speaker 26:21
not in here
Unknown Speaker 26:27
let me see that angle
Unknown Speaker 26:32
it's a bunch of
Unknown Speaker 26:35
papers
Unknown Speaker 26:39
tape put together there was stapled
Unknown Speaker 26:50
it looks familiar movie theater stuff I took a course with her

Unknown Speaker 28:01
there, this all means something, you
Unknown Speaker 28:05
know, this way our Facebook queries, Facebook,
Unknown Speaker 28:09
Facebook
Unknown Speaker 28:15

Unknown Speaker 28:18
So when you kept on getting there, there's we actually go as bancha I used to go
Unknown Speaker 28:27
to St. Mary's Lee. Chunks of salt. Right, really. And we begin suss out and then we had to go home and
Unknown Speaker 28:36
that's cool. So you can use that. There's a lot of places that
Unknown Speaker 28:43
like when we used to go picking blackberries, we never took a tub or a buffet or anything
Unknown Speaker 28:48
when you
Unknown Speaker 28:51
really only had one.
Unknown Speaker 28:54
I don't know if anybody knows her.
Unknown Speaker 28:56

Unknown Speaker 29:05
their sheets of leaves and the bottle.
Unknown Speaker 29:08

Unknown Speaker 30:20
but one day sister St Joseph went down there and she suppose on there and find the cedar stumps and
Unknown Speaker 30:29
one of the brothers went film with them and they found a studio stump you start chopping them down and

that's funny. So walk around with
Unknown Speaker 30:39
chopped up the southern
Unknown Speaker 30:43
he pasted off a building
Unknown Speaker 30:49

Unknown Speaker 32:14
bigger No, I'm not on the Emile Emile is here in the Bay runs of
Unknown Speaker 32:23
everybody
Unknown Speaker 32:26
but I wish
Unknown Speaker 32:29
that's okay
Unknown Speaker 32:34
yeah, he was one of the ones or the
Unknown Speaker 32:38
SP which he
Unknown Speaker 32:41
told her no we thought him
Unknown Speaker 32:46
okay, where would it be
Unknown Speaker 32:48
like we have to go up in here Yeah. Here somewhere I'm not sure where our friend did ever know.
Unknown Speaker 32:56
He lived there when they first he was six years old
Unknown Speaker 33:04
to get out have a look around their
Unknown Speaker 33:07
pizza table
Unknown Speaker 33:13
I'm gonna go down there one day
Unknown Speaker 33:20
as long as it's in there
Unknown Speaker 33:22
somewhere near that smooth but I'm not sure where
Unknown Speaker 33:29
are you in that thing fish the fish farm day or? No, I know where it is. But I'm just down the road from it. I can actually see why
Unknown Speaker 33:42
that's the most frustrating thing ever want to see that? Yeah. Especially when seeking burials
Unknown Speaker 33:48
he was telling us about it's pretty
Unknown Speaker 33:51
disrespectful
Unknown Speaker 33:53
trying to get some information through the freshman Junior
Unknown Speaker 33:59
fellow My name is
Unknown Speaker 34:02
the nickname since he was Yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 34:07
So So you did used to go to St. Mary's like to the salts right there. Yeah, I would take the sled on the beach there and go up to walk down and get the chance to start shopping and use it for whatever
Unknown Speaker 34:25
interesting
Unknown Speaker 34:27
because you ever collect like rushes and materials around St. Mary's Granny's to
Unknown Speaker 34:33
make all kinds of baskets. I was telling them I really love picking apples. We never took buckets and tubs and cans, gun and nicotine to branch
Unknown Speaker 34:43
and if we pick very cheap leaves on the bottom
Unknown Speaker 34:47
what would you use for the branches
Unknown Speaker 34:50
whatever a
Unknown Speaker 34:52
leader
Unknown Speaker 34:56
know anything
Unknown Speaker 35:00
Saints
Unknown Speaker 35:02
were so resourceful because they knew like never placed on this end
Unknown Speaker 35:09
we forgot our flour and gasket goes up and
Unknown Speaker 35:14
down grind develop rich flour. Really
Unknown Speaker 35:19
true
Unknown Speaker 35:21
turn it wasn't the cameras I don't want
Unknown Speaker 35:25
the lovely thinking even cheetahs on cheap running
Unknown Speaker 35:30
wild rice wherever we went we had something there
Unknown Speaker 35:34
so this grant you're talking about this lady off again
Unknown Speaker 35:40
towards they were Trump analogous
Unknown Speaker 35:46
most of Salisbury you know that across a load store Ira there's a big long beach they're
Unknown Speaker 35:53
camping
Unknown Speaker 35:56
I don't know if there's a little island
Unknown Speaker 36:02
but there's a lot to go on at that level because it helps make the silver heads who in New Zealand and stuff like that
Unknown Speaker 36:09
live alone I think that's
Unknown Speaker 36:12
otherwise as I was telling him or anyone on this end of the island
Unknown Speaker 36:18
what's new in that he said it was canal
Unknown Speaker 36:21
that canal you
Unknown Speaker 36:39
right across from Croft and
Unknown Speaker 36:42
sort of goes in almost again yeah
Unknown Speaker 36:50
they
Unknown Speaker 36:52
I forget many names John has
Unknown Speaker 36:56
been away from the vision for nine years
Unknown Speaker 37:00
yeah
Unknown Speaker 37:03
no, there's another day up further somewhere in there oh
Unknown Speaker 37:07
boy up there. Oh, there's a deep bay there abducting
Unknown Speaker 37:11
that's another island that's him you know that I love that little island understand? Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 37:18
That's a burial Island. I've heard Yeah. And there was a little shack that I guess the caretaker used to stay
Unknown Speaker 37:27
really on there and if you go there you'll find the women
Unknown Speaker 37:32
rather than
Unknown Speaker 37:34
Kevin there it was just a little sort of moving to Chef
Unknown Speaker 37:42
he'd stay there for a while because we had to take I guess those grades were there in undergrad as time I guess so. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 37:52
They find many grades
Unknown Speaker 37:56
13
Unknown Speaker 37:58
That's why you know
Unknown Speaker 38:00
and they figured it could be 1000 there
Unknown Speaker 38:07
yeah loves to me Tom. He owns quite a bit of cell stream because he had the four sisters Negev land vehicle
Unknown Speaker 38:14
I don't know where to stand
Unknown Speaker 38:20
it's a blessing
Unknown Speaker 38:23
because the reason they were given this land because of robbing us and they gave
Unknown Speaker 38:27
only
Unknown Speaker 38:29
his land to his sisters
Unknown Speaker 38:35
he had the Indian name careful on that.
Unknown Speaker 38:39
Who should be collapsible called collapse and okay.
Unknown Speaker 38:45
Yeah, I've heard that. And his father. There's a first new man first named and deliver mail today. He didn't
Unknown Speaker 38:55
deserve it was tricky Tommy did too.
Unknown Speaker 39:17
The tide went down.
Unknown Speaker 39:20
A whole bunch of muscle
Unknown Speaker 39:23
memory
Unknown Speaker 39:25
crunch crunch crunch.
Unknown Speaker 39:30
Shoulder
Unknown Speaker 39:31
apparently
Unknown Speaker 39:37
the boots are handy for making
Unknown Speaker 39:41
but mostly faces. That means can't.
Unknown Speaker 39:47
Like my grandfather, Jimmy George will go camping and he dig a big hole
Unknown Speaker 39:55
and we take them for
Unknown Speaker 39:57
help.
Unknown Speaker 40:00
So
Unknown Speaker 40:03
let's make
Unknown Speaker 40:05
them those that we shared
Unknown Speaker 40:08
a lot here it was founders to this whole sometimes
Unknown Speaker 40:13
they get trapped in the title
Unknown Speaker 40:16
people clamoring and efficient at the same time
Unknown Speaker 40:27
there is fish traps over there who didn't have to know because they got all
Unknown Speaker 40:33
and then on Connecticut where the
Unknown Speaker 40:36
tides are low had to
Unknown Speaker 40:39
walk around there and get cabs and founders
Unknown Speaker 40:45
rich area
Unknown Speaker 40:48
the most nice place in the evenings took what they wanted but they didn't know
Unknown Speaker 40:58
next you know I just met him again
Unknown Speaker 41:03
he's 101 guy last year for everybody or getting
Unknown Speaker 41:13
everybody will get some gentlemen
Unknown Speaker 41:20
I think
Unknown Speaker 41:26
we went down to Cuba and Canalis at lunch. We could go with our windows open our doors open to the beach in the clouds. Nobody was touching things.
Unknown Speaker 41:39
And Michelle was clean the
Unknown Speaker 41:43
dirt roads there. The
Unknown Speaker 41:46
Salvi was just like this highway out here
Unknown Speaker 41:49
and all goes to big branches we've actually
Unknown Speaker 41:53
seen people
Unknown Speaker 41:56
picked up some bad habits
Unknown Speaker 41:59
the rest of
Unknown Speaker 42:06
them
Unknown Speaker 42:08
couldn't eat
Unknown Speaker 42:12
so
Unknown Speaker 42:17
well I taught him how to make bread. Yeah, pretty good. Oh yeah.
Unknown Speaker 42:24
So what do you think about when you think about salt spray? I mean I know salt spray was kind of you know, there's no reserved there except for small sand. There was no reserve there but the Indians own land there and most of them had cabins and they use it for 10 years do you remember seeing those cabins in tents? Oh yeah. Like we're about to receive 123
Unknown Speaker 42:46
They weren't having to
Unknown Speaker 42:49
like lean
Unknown Speaker 42:54
to safety depends on how many you didn't mean very pleased for a family for sleep
Unknown Speaker 43:05
I was telling a friend of mine about that.
Unknown Speaker 43:08
It was Salt Spring Island
Unknown Speaker 43:12
and I told him about it you go down you'll find a fireplace
Unknown Speaker 43:18
the fireplace where was that? Custom Oh
Unknown Speaker 43:23
oh
Unknown Speaker 43:25
oh
Unknown Speaker 43:27
I wonder what is it?
Unknown Speaker 43:30
I guess so. It's the head of the harbor it costs us
Unknown Speaker 43:36
yeah
Unknown Speaker 43:39
on the other side
Unknown Speaker 43:42
it's Easter Churchill beach find these things
Unknown Speaker 43:47
yeah
Unknown Speaker 43:54
we don't
Unknown Speaker 43:56
wander there's there's a sandy sort of spit he goes south from Ganges like on the same site like most stores here. And if you continue like South there's a big beach but it's not the one on the other side of the heart of a classroom.
Unknown Speaker 44:12
So when you went there was a young person you'd have to look around for these
Unknown Speaker 44:18
fireplaces I know them but
Unknown Speaker 44:21
found all the rocks
Unknown Speaker 44:24
we built his was square I don't know why.
Unknown Speaker 44:27
But anyway, that should be still there.
Unknown Speaker 44:31
And all these places that you're looking for look around
Unknown Speaker 44:36
and find these things
Unknown Speaker 44:39
like the edge find a fireplace outside
Unknown Speaker 44:43
the rocks all around.
Unknown Speaker 44:45
You had
Unknown Speaker 44:47
never had stones inside in my van eventually going to stall for so
Unknown Speaker 44:53
long.
Unknown Speaker 44:58
You understand?
Unknown Speaker 45:00
She turns
Unknown Speaker 45:13
around to me What did she say?
Unknown Speaker 45:16
She was smarter
Unknown Speaker 45:19
because right
Unknown Speaker 45:26
where you are again there'll be people from all over there like
Unknown Speaker 45:30
other people because they all have tasers low in the face and
Unknown Speaker 45:37
everything
Unknown Speaker 45:39
they've made some claims
Unknown Speaker 45:48
were yes yeah
Unknown Speaker 45:50
and also Auggie told us an interesting thing I never really thought about make sense you have to keep working at clan beats or appears
Unknown Speaker 45:59
to speak about that a bit or oh yeah you'd have
Unknown Speaker 46:06
to turn the color
Unknown Speaker 46:10
yeah the black
Unknown Speaker 46:13
where we
Unknown Speaker 46:16
are on an island called
Unknown Speaker 46:21
butterfly
Unknown Speaker 46:23
hill
Unknown Speaker 46:32
we will pick the things that they should eat now we know the eight little muscles around TV
Unknown Speaker 46:48
and we look down like that where it goes through and
Unknown Speaker 46:53
after a while I've just
Unknown Speaker 47:06
eaten
Unknown Speaker 47:10
really children but you can't tell anybody that because of this
Unknown Speaker 47:18
so native people didn't even know
Unknown Speaker 47:23
every winter
Unknown Speaker 47:26
you hear on the radio
Unknown Speaker 47:32
and they feel
Unknown Speaker 47:39
yeah they feel a lot
Unknown Speaker 47:42
fuller
Unknown Speaker 47:44
stuff
Unknown Speaker 47:45
you couldn't see the bottom of
Unknown Speaker 47:49
the bathtub overnight
Unknown Speaker 48:02
the bias of people who see them as
Unknown Speaker 48:10
being in people
Unknown Speaker 48:13
may only only trends at a certain time
Unknown Speaker 48:19
May June and July
Unknown Speaker 48:24
the second time of the year they won't
Unknown Speaker 48:28
fund you they know how to they know how to use the land
Unknown Speaker 48:39
the white people
Unknown Speaker 48:44
I mean that nothing is white people but somebody
Unknown Speaker 48:53
that can eat everything out there destroy all the things that are keeping you safe and clean for us. What's going on?
Unknown Speaker 49:02
Like you said they only knew they don't
Unknown Speaker 49:06
need them. I've only been here like 150 years it's nothing that's why I started
Unknown Speaker 49:12
I want to go through so bad my dad
Unknown Speaker 49:16
said out loud
Unknown Speaker 49:18
but don't allow
Unknown Speaker 49:22
these muscles all around the
Unknown Speaker 49:26
waters
Unknown Speaker 49:29
just those little muscles. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 49:32
Let's see does it take those boundaries to
Unknown Speaker 49:39
make those kind of things your fingernails
Unknown Speaker 49:42
legs and sell them
Unknown Speaker 49:44
for some news bags and bags.
Unknown Speaker 49:47
Are people willing to do that?
Unknown Speaker 49:52
So the big differences you know between the native peoples in your period of 1000s of years, learned all this stuff. The newcomers don't know any they just want to quit
Unknown Speaker 50:00
Fuck yeah we never use if you tell them anything like the CPA exam we need to meet these urges I read that
Unknown Speaker 50:09
and there's two spots and each one are Mabel she was filthy. I used to my small
Unknown Speaker 50:18
kids five two respond to each one. And she said well now I will speak English
Unknown Speaker 50:29
and she went up for sure enough she slept for hours.
Unknown Speaker 50:33
So a lot of things that people use
Unknown Speaker 50:39
over
Unknown Speaker 50:40
the years it was always
Unknown Speaker 50:45
like, we had to go to Cannes for Baylor's bailing the boat
Unknown Speaker 50:50
they would go to the cedar tree and make
Unknown Speaker 50:54
beer
Unknown Speaker 51:01
I've got one at home do perfect just for ya scoop fits the pier with the boat
Unknown Speaker 51:09
and never face the Miss
Unknown Speaker 51:11
Galliano as they call it college she
Unknown Speaker 51:15
used to go and get washed
Unknown Speaker 51:18
cranberries are really in the north No no no.
Unknown Speaker 51:22
And not
Unknown Speaker 51:25
five miles Oh yeah, there's a lake in there. You know where the story Benefield yep
Unknown Speaker 51:37
Linda the
Unknown Speaker 51:49
cranberry cranberries
Unknown Speaker 51:58
many of these islands
Unknown Speaker 52:03
I mean, I've
Unknown Speaker 52:05
been the younger generation wants to build big clouds they can start a fire and
Unknown Speaker 52:12
cook a pot of clams you know because there's no fires allegedly any fire there which is crazy
Unknown Speaker 52:20
to me, I don't like it. You know I like to go camping and I like to play and I know how to relate to property if you can go back through history there was never one thing in US buyers that
Unknown Speaker 52:32
knew how to make a fire
Unknown Speaker 52:34
small fire I don't know how to build some big giant thing that's gonna burn the forest down
Unknown Speaker 52:51
and they didn't cancel
Unknown Speaker 52:54
because if we went anywhere we didn't have
Unknown Speaker 53:00
such SAS
Unknown Speaker 53:02
something nice to
Unknown Speaker 53:06
do
Unknown Speaker 53:10
and they never over hunted
Unknown Speaker 53:14
it takes us
Unknown Speaker 53:16
even with the fish they took
Unknown Speaker 53:20
I guess they used to hunt deer on Saltspring oh yeah
Unknown Speaker 53:26
it is the retreats and like pets coming up our driveway
Unknown Speaker 53:33
came up
Unknown Speaker 53:40
we just
Unknown Speaker 53:50
on Saltspring island
Unknown Speaker 53:56
so in the north
Unknown Speaker 54:02
oh I picked this up ages ago I don't know where
Unknown Speaker 54:07
but this this actually shows your old
Unknown Speaker 54:10
yeah like more of your old country like reed islands here. Now look at
Unknown Speaker 54:18
more way
Unknown Speaker 54:23
that's a long day your time you may call it I don't either. I don't know that's retreat
Unknown Speaker 54:29
for chiefs down here okay. It says that one was this one but I think it was a brilliant here what's
Unknown Speaker 54:37
yours Walker sickening. He would tell you about this gentleman like here's the big beach. Okay, I'm here right here the hill right there. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 54:45
And if you fight what do you call a name?
Unknown Speaker 54:47
In Your name is Caitlin.
Unknown Speaker 54:51
Okay. Now, you can research the Indian name.
Unknown Speaker 54:57
Which searching you name you get somebody to tell you what that
Unknown Speaker 55:00
mean you find out that oh man oh that face really worries oh here it says this fix right here all right he had a cabin right up so he was in the bay yeah he's a great done this last year was he a white man in Indian and Indian guy? Yes. Oh these people that had the farm here used to leech off him for $15 a year because I was there when they paid him 15 $1 bills
Unknown Speaker 55:27
I was there with my dad when
Unknown Speaker 55:29
with these two brothers
Unknown Speaker 55:32
we made the witness to pay him
Unknown Speaker 55:36
$1 That time trusted he lived he had to heal now he's about to finish yet there are so many houses out there now houses
Unknown Speaker 55:45
all built up that's where I live I live just still be here right across from the end of the close where he was
Unknown Speaker 55:51
Vandy lead guy
Unknown Speaker 55:56
I think there's
Unknown Speaker 55:59
definitely a new research that engineers new research engineers up face and you'll find that that guy there he owned it because the brothers that are this big farm here
Unknown Speaker 56:11
they used to lease off those would be the Caldwells that's the
Unknown Speaker 56:18
only two yeah it'd be them Henry to call my brother.
Unknown Speaker 56:22
Oh, that's very interesting. So you live there yeah
Unknown Speaker 56:27
yeah, there's a lot of big houses up here there's a big hill here just like you said. Yeah. And there's houses all over it
Unknown Speaker 56:34
was the only one they were not patient that really the big beach is way out here. He had Bandy legs Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 56:41
You remember the tax on that beach
Unknown Speaker 56:45
because he
Unknown Speaker 56:48
when they came there was no shafts and they had
Unknown Speaker 56:52
only make a bench wrench lean to
Unknown Speaker 56:58
extend the company to have to
Unknown Speaker 57:01
make it Yeah. And here this is where we're talking earlier about the other sisters is what the Samson's at their place. Yeah. Tell me about
Unknown Speaker 57:11
the neon the Samson's place
Unknown Speaker 57:17
quite a bit
Unknown Speaker 57:19
and that Jeff campus in here so where's the chap Canberra
Unknown Speaker 57:25
Stanford
Unknown Speaker 57:28
is this yeah there's a little island
Unknown Speaker 57:31
here okay.
Unknown Speaker 57:34
This was where the jet farm was there Okay, that should be in there to see some nice
Unknown Speaker 57:43
little Annapolis Netflix
Unknown Speaker 57:46
team guide also space okay Tommy telethia where maybe the guys from
Unknown Speaker 57:53
he's alright off that where it drops off right there was a Jake
Unknown Speaker 58:00
lingkod about this long so deep it is a
Unknown Speaker 58:03
well
Unknown Speaker 58:05
no, I guess it isn't blue so the reason yeah, I know that I know the cash is gonna
Unknown Speaker 58:16
go in
Unknown Speaker 58:18
like we had a Jeff can
Unknown Speaker 58:21
speak to the jabs couldn't speak Japanese understand. So they have to have this
Unknown Speaker 58:27
tongue scale effect for the capsule
Unknown Speaker 58:33
so he he dealt with the Japanese and as far as they were concerned, this was in the land all right. Yeah. So they didn't deal with a white man
Unknown Speaker 58:41
$15 A year sounds good to them $25 Wow. So how would that happen? I mean, they would just show up Could you explain that leasing process going and they find this place and they
Unknown Speaker 58:53
tell me they will find
Unknown Speaker 58:57
so much lease
Unknown Speaker 59:08
for whole year and every year
Unknown Speaker 59:12
because what you're saying is very interesting because that never gets in the history books. That part yeah. And you see what you're telling us is what happened on the ground? Yeah look at the Henry was telling us about races over here leasing that land
Unknown Speaker 59:29
just in yellow
Unknown Speaker 59:34
when they died, went back to the union. No, it didn't die he just gave us gave us a nice and
Unknown Speaker 59:48
interesting see that's how I got
Unknown Speaker 59:52
taken over by
Unknown Speaker 59:59
that's really interest
Unknown Speaker 1:00:00
State because
Unknown Speaker 1:00:03
they obviously didn't deal with this because most days the natives controlled everything Oh yeah set up a cabinet to beat certain federal aid some guys showed up I
Unknown Speaker 1:00:17
don't know about this fishing ability another example
Unknown Speaker 1:00:24
another scene boats I was told that
Unknown Speaker 1:00:29
my dad was the same boat captain Henry the soldiers
Unknown Speaker 1:00:36
when they would go up north they'd anchor in the Bay
Unknown Speaker 1:00:40
Shore enough to cheat if they could send
Unknown Speaker 1:00:48
Jesus
Unknown Speaker 1:00:53
My dad told me that time and time again that when they would totally like
Unknown Speaker 1:00:59
to cheat
Unknown Speaker 1:01:02
sometimes he knows
Unknown Speaker 1:01:08
nobody knows that where's that
Unknown Speaker 1:01:12
tone again? Geez yes oh yeah they here they here right here and right there. Oh really? Right in here right across all all this year you look they're trying to find this there's all kinds of messing around here show you see where the Indian people camp yeah and so which Island has the snakes tiny when
Unknown Speaker 1:01:34
there's a little bit here
Unknown Speaker 1:01:37
that little one like the way but the only trees on me is really small when no one had trees
Unknown Speaker 1:01:45
they have little silver heads
Unknown Speaker 1:01:48
remember in any name for those things
Unknown Speaker 1:01:54
so that's something you can put in because my dad been fishing
Unknown Speaker 1:01:59
down and up north
Unknown Speaker 1:02:01
he would go to the chief of the tribe and asked if he was allowed to fish
Unknown Speaker 1:02:08
okay and he said
Unknown Speaker 1:02:12
all along racial hero up
Unknown Speaker 1:02:21
on the boat
Unknown Speaker 1:02:24
no people don't know that. That's that's the old way. I mean, people knew that the land was owned by somebody Yeah. So do you think that happened down here as well? Oh yeah. See all these places that was leased out I was telling him all these patients had received in the people lived there for years as well
Unknown Speaker 1:02:50
all in the
Unknown Speaker 1:02:56
same way
Unknown Speaker 1:03:02
tell me
Unknown Speaker 1:03:04
not not at
Unknown Speaker 1:03:09
all that we can wait
Unknown Speaker 1:03:13
permission to live there and holding the boundary line over
Unknown Speaker 1:03:19
and over Nobody said
Unknown Speaker 1:03:23
on the phone
Unknown Speaker 1:03:28
that Mondrian and mark on my car
Unknown Speaker 1:03:31
when he
Unknown Speaker 1:03:36
when he talked with a friend of ours
Unknown Speaker 1:03:39
claiming land
Unknown Speaker 1:03:43
I don't because there's houses on this land.
Unknown Speaker 1:03:47
Use land farms and stuff.
Unknown Speaker 1:03:50
But what you do is you take the price of the house
Unknown Speaker 1:03:54
and it's a $20,000 what they call
Unknown Speaker 1:04:07
the 20,000.
Unknown Speaker 1:04:13
But what happens if they claim that land again?
Unknown Speaker 1:04:17
They say they can take a deposition
Unknown Speaker 1:04:21
that's a big problem for the native people here is that there isn't a lot of
Unknown Speaker 1:04:27
Crown land. Non private land
Unknown Speaker 1:04:32
but it's all owned by them. I mean whole Yes. But it also the crazy family who just throw this out there like
Unknown Speaker 1:04:40
they've been spending all this money on the treaty process. Why the heck are they just taking their money buying land with lives and spending millions
Unknown Speaker 1:04:49
of their own land? I mean, yeah. I mean
Unknown Speaker 1:04:54
it's just good. Lawyers. They're getting money.
Unknown Speaker 1:05:00
You
Unknown Speaker 1:05:05
mentioned Brian Campbell
Unknown Speaker 1:05:09
no no he's
Unknown Speaker 1:05:17
an anchor
Unknown Speaker 1:05:20
$100 An hour he's
Unknown Speaker 1:05:24
getting nothing out of it
Unknown Speaker 1:05:26
it's terrible. There was a meeting a few years ago where and elders did that hey would you like a cup of coffee or tea
Unknown Speaker 1:05:33
to make it most of the land sorry most of the land on those taken was leased by non native people and then they lived there for years and years and years and
Unknown Speaker 1:05:48
because they cleaned it through the white man system
Unknown Speaker 1:05:52
I don't know anything about it like the only did their baby
Unknown Speaker 1:06:00
lands claiming
Unknown Speaker 1:06:02
this is how maybe your great granddad got his land like Barb's descended from when Eden settlers who married a couch and Lady them alone the culture
Unknown Speaker 1:06:13
oh
Unknown Speaker 1:06:16
I don't know how
Unknown Speaker 1:06:24
to download the kidney
Unknown Speaker 1:06:26
that's a good idea. Because we've been trying to find there in the names. There were like three sisters Again, very similar to what you're telling. Yeah, but they were from helmets. Oh, yeah. And there was a cochlea? A silly name we know the cochlea? Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1:06:43
And then these two other ladies who were her ancestors we don't know their names
Unknown Speaker 1:06:50
Yes, you've done a door just want to know we knew her brothers
Unknown Speaker 1:06:55
maybe that guy was
Unknown Speaker 1:07:05
Indian and we haven't been enabled. I don't know what offense Ron George carries
Unknown Speaker 1:07:17
with it
Unknown Speaker 1:07:21
oh, that's the one you can retake
Unknown Speaker 1:07:29
Do you know anything of the Indian archives in Victoria? Yeah. A little bit. They have we used to have a
Unknown Speaker 1:07:37
Nanaimo
Unknown Speaker 1:07:39
and I went up there looking for some buddy
Unknown Speaker 1:07:44
when she flipped this book over
Unknown Speaker 1:07:47
she said hey
Unknown Speaker 1:07:49
no you're right thing I should know about myself.
Unknown Speaker 1:07:53
So she heard on the news
Unknown Speaker 1:07:56
and she had all the old Indian names in this book. And the
Unknown Speaker 1:08:01
really found their archives in Victoria summer it's a black book who has all the rights from long ago
Unknown Speaker 1:08:09
I talked to Rocky Sampson about and he told me that a lot of
Unknown Speaker 1:08:14
archival material was shipped to
Unknown Speaker 1:08:17
Ottawa
Unknown Speaker 1:08:25
that's very interesting. I looked that up. Because I saw all kinds of names in there that I recognized.
Unknown Speaker 1:08:32
Like they even saw him yesterday. He was by steam
Unknown Speaker 1:08:42
my mother's seamless we all
Unknown Speaker 1:08:45
so Henry, Eddie, that's me ever. So what's his name again? Steve. Do you mind
Unknown Speaker 1:08:52
Oh, yeah, I've got mine
Unknown Speaker 1:09:00
other words
Unknown Speaker 1:09:06
how do you turn the sun
Unknown Speaker 1:09:08
so low tech guy here? Well, that's
Unknown Speaker 1:09:13
not up technology
Unknown Speaker 1:09:19
like bank was Granny's first boy.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:24
His name was
Unknown Speaker 1:09:26
his name.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:29
His
Unknown Speaker 1:09:31
uncle.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:35
First
Unknown Speaker 1:09:37
of that family
Unknown Speaker 1:09:40
name
Unknown Speaker 1:09:42
was named after
Unknown Speaker 1:09:45
father.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:47
The second
Unknown Speaker 1:09:50
was named after NAFTA Granny's.
Unknown Speaker 1:09:55
That Indian name tells you where that name comes from.
Unknown Speaker 1:10:00
Who is named after and where he, where he comes from, but he's named after his family.
Unknown Speaker 1:10:08
Do you understand that? Sorry, can you repeat that please?
Unknown Speaker 1:10:11
Okay, if I had two sons now,
Unknown Speaker 1:10:14
their oldest son would be named after him you name after Iris father.
Unknown Speaker 1:10:21
A second son would be named after my Indian name for my father
Unknown Speaker 1:10:26
to join the
Unknown Speaker 1:10:29
family. So right now, you will search the Indian name you don't research the white name.
Unknown Speaker 1:10:35
Because when
Unknown Speaker 1:10:38
that happened, even though we were I was having Tony
Unknown Speaker 1:10:44
my cousins were
Unknown Speaker 1:10:47
Dell or Jack
Unknown Speaker 1:10:48
and Gloria was glory Domingo, their father's name because there's so many there on the island. There's so many families and for a long time I called my cousin bar Mrs. Jack
Unknown Speaker 1:10:59
because they had a brother Joe and brother Jim and father Domingo. And I didn't realize how stupid so that's how they got these funny names.
Unknown Speaker 1:11:10
Like Henry Eddie, Simon Andy,
Unknown Speaker 1:11:13
and all of them
Unknown Speaker 1:11:16
Simon son
Unknown Speaker 1:11:20
Joe Simon.
Unknown Speaker 1:11:22
And they took the Father's name to distinguish the families do understand they didn't use the last thing that's how they got these names.
Unknown Speaker 1:11:32
Which makes it confusing. Not really what it means for the English if you if you're just trying to like you were telling me if you told me that English names you know
Unknown Speaker 1:11:43
like Familia and all of my cousins their last name
Unknown Speaker 1:11:48
like my husband Jeff Kinser.
Unknown Speaker 1:11:51
Even his wife Mrs. Dad
Unknown Speaker 1:11:54
said that's because so many there's so many
Unknown Speaker 1:11:59
cousin Joe's wife whose job
Unknown Speaker 1:12:03
unless they had any kids learning less
Unknown Speaker 1:12:08
here's
Unknown Speaker 1:12:11
my brother Bobby continued and he
Unknown Speaker 1:12:15
told me
Unknown Speaker 1:12:17
Jackie was Jackie Jax
Unknown Speaker 1:12:28
isn't there
Unknown Speaker 1:12:30
no the Indian names me really?
Unknown Speaker 1:12:32
The whole essence of
Unknown Speaker 1:12:35
the key to it all.
Unknown Speaker 1:12:36
Yeah, those are the ones in your name.
Unknown Speaker 1:12:41
What's your name?
Unknown Speaker 1:12:45
Scope quality. We feel Squirrel.
Unknown Speaker 1:12:50
Squirrel squirrel gotta have like a mouse or multiple earrings
Unknown Speaker 1:12:58
that's the only way anybody can have you. phenom says again
Unknown Speaker 1:13:03
to hawk Korea to help we
Unknown Speaker 1:13:11
know that she was a cousin, a cousin or a sister. Oh, these two are my great grandma. This one Suzanne Suzanne and
Unknown Speaker 1:13:19
Mary marry Theodore Twiggy, Twiggy
Unknown Speaker 1:13:24
Berry and you must all be the point them because one of the people live and we will point is the people that had land they're given to them by the people that own I would say so. Like yes, she would have ownerships Great Grandma yes through the couch and
Unknown Speaker 1:13:40
and all these people were from llamas
Unknown Speaker 1:13:44
and Mary and John Burgoyne
Unknown Speaker 1:13:49
wherever they live, they own that land. What's your name? My name Yeah, barber barber wherever these people live the land was given to them by whoever owned it
Unknown Speaker 1:14:02
to you
Unknown Speaker 1:14:08
now it's all a part like you know the park that was created on y'all sorry
Unknown Speaker 1:14:13
burgling bay that saw the old
Unknown Speaker 1:14:16
property that her ancestors had it's all the park now.
Unknown Speaker 1:14:20
I don't even know used to be a great clamp down there. I don't know.
Unknown Speaker 1:14:27
Do you own that land?
Unknown Speaker 1:14:31
Not kidding. No, because on the reason
Unknown Speaker 1:14:35
there is because you, your grandparents were given that piece of land by the Indians.
Unknown Speaker 1:14:41
They only gave like my grandfather, Porky Joe. He was given land on the kind of my grandmother was an Indian from seashells.
Unknown Speaker 1:14:50
They were allowed to stay on
Unknown Speaker 1:14:53
the family and it was never to be sold
Unknown Speaker 1:14:56
to be sold. But my open Domingo's family decided that they want
Unknown Speaker 1:15:00
Tell us
Unknown Speaker 1:15:02
So who won who would have given your grant grandma grandfather the land there allows him to stay who would love to be shared setting you name that today I give your your land
Unknown Speaker 1:15:14
we're trying to find account plan
Unknown Speaker 1:15:19
allows you might know
Unknown Speaker 1:15:22
to Henry comes here a lot to visitors yeah but right now he's doesn't
Unknown Speaker 1:15:29
have a home it'd be great if we could come here
Unknown Speaker 1:15:35
yeah we went to see him today actually no one was there to see his great grandson and he said he was offered the doctors wouldn't be back to me
Unknown Speaker 1:15:45
oh yeah
Unknown Speaker 1:15:50
they should be carving them in salary. Because the only
Unknown Speaker 1:15:54
way and they tell the story of the whole person's life story with the time she was born. There was one total
Unknown Speaker 1:16:03
Slurpee and obviously are on the reading and this little lady when she was 12 years old, she had a book and that was right on the totem pole
Unknown Speaker 1:16:12
it was I started being right up until the day she died when they shouldn't be sold me blue and selling
Unknown Speaker 1:16:18
a friend of mine wanted to give me a total
Unknown Speaker 1:16:22
but the car was only carved me a bear
Unknown Speaker 1:16:25
because
Unknown Speaker 1:16:27
there was nothing evil about
Unknown Speaker 1:16:29
Chicago or anything else he would he wouldn't do it
Unknown Speaker 1:16:33
too dangerous. Why was it too dangerous?
Unknown Speaker 1:16:37
Because whatever is in that totem pole
Unknown Speaker 1:16:44
so you when you drive through Duncan and sailors totem poles what I call the guests
Unknown Speaker 1:16:50
because they got them all up there and
Unknown Speaker 1:16:54
the only good totem pole is in there is
Unknown Speaker 1:16:57
Rick Hansen, my nephew Corky Baines curve that
Unknown Speaker 1:17:03
that tells him that should tell you the story of redemption. From the time he was a little kid until the time he got into that. But
Unknown Speaker 1:17:15
that's interest that's the only poll I like the only other poll I like him ducking is the Maori poll
Unknown Speaker 1:17:23
that they had a Maori Carver come up here on an exchange
Unknown Speaker 1:17:28
oh
Unknown Speaker 1:17:29
oh yeah
Unknown Speaker 1:17:34
yeah, so he came up here and he thought you know he's been he'd been carbon some little bits in the ground as long as the Know Your carbon This
Unknown Speaker 1:17:41
is like the biggest thing he'd ever car because the New Zealand you know, the trees aren't as big as they used to be.
Unknown Speaker 1:17:48
There's only one Carver
Unknown Speaker 1:17:51
and then his, his family took over. Carving wasn't everybody carving. It was just now the car was all over the place. It does. Yeah. Getting back to that.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:04
You know, we were talking earlier about the house inelegant heifers in the old days, each house had its own kind of talents and specialties, the people that live there. Oh, yeah. Could you speak a bit about that? Or?
Unknown Speaker 1:18:15
Like when you mean 100? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, they all had their own
Unknown Speaker 1:18:21
thing, as we call it today.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:24
And they have a hunter. Right now. My neck is Stevie Sylvester. He's a hunter.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:30
He goes out for deer and he'll divide that all amongst people.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:36
After seven, and he won't quit until he gets enough. Every family.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:41
They all they shared. They shared everything.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:46
There was some family big family there that didn't have enough food. The other people on reserve was going to give them
Unknown Speaker 1:18:54
we could still take it to them.
Unknown Speaker 1:18:56
Whatever they need, they will screw up. I know lots of times I was with Bernie and she this lady would come. They'd speak in Indian that she needs to
Unknown Speaker 1:19:07
burn a
Unknown Speaker 1:19:12
cup of tea or whatever she wants to leave. Or sugar or whatever she needed. They were like that they're really generous people who may help each other. But now I don't know if they do or not. Which dz I know he's 100 Over there. My husband just bought into the shelves on these shelves. So who does he have for the future? Which one? Okay.
Unknown Speaker 1:19:37
But they are so generous. They just like you know the Chiefs nowadays they don't look after the people. I guess.
Unknown Speaker 1:19:45
My uncle Mike under was his chief who don't
Unknown Speaker 1:19:49
say
Unknown Speaker 1:19:52
they were at the house we're having a separate enough came on the door. This lady was at the door crying was late at night.
Unknown Speaker 1:20:00
I had
Unknown Speaker 1:20:03
on for Mike he was a chief he got his coat is happening when else
Unknown Speaker 1:20:07
already store give her basket and she went all the way around the basket.
Unknown Speaker 1:20:15
roadie same thing give it to the band office and she went home happy he do that maybe 1020 times a day and help the people criticize the chief today you can find the client to analyze a meeting or in a meeting or something like poro Henry no he's got no home there's no chief to help
Unknown Speaker 1:20:35
there's nothing else
Unknown Speaker 1:20:37
was a time we were there and ready need warm clothes for winter and blankets.
Unknown Speaker 1:20:44
Mike goes down again. He opens up the stores and gets whatever she wants they didn't need I guess he knew all the store managers
Unknown Speaker 1:20:53
made sure they had everything
Unknown Speaker 1:20:56
that he does so that's my job sheet
Unknown Speaker 1:21:01
there's somebody coming up with a door they had no gas
Unknown Speaker 1:21:04
so money for cheese is sent over me you send out Ottawa every March it all depends on how many people in them
Unknown Speaker 1:21:15
I don't want to get no
Unknown Speaker 1:21:20
money for everything
Unknown Speaker 1:21:28
fancy homes rented cars
Unknown Speaker 1:21:30
underneath
Unknown Speaker 1:21:32
and I don't mind saying that because I know
Unknown Speaker 1:21:35
a lot of them are ripped off
Unknown Speaker 1:21:39
but I've heard that so many people a
Unknown Speaker 1:21:42
lot of people think the way you do yeah well one of the chief took means that he was the
Unknown Speaker 1:21:48
boy my cousin
Unknown Speaker 1:21:57
can really understand the bills and
Unknown Speaker 1:22:02
have an average day right he was
Unknown Speaker 1:22:06
nobody knows this has happened it
Unknown Speaker 1:22:12
wasn't like that in the old days. I mean what I understood it was ahead of every house was achieved
Unknown Speaker 1:22:17
and it worked together well they had they had achieved
Unknown Speaker 1:22:23
and apply the no central
Unknown Speaker 1:22:27
reserve there was a young boy
Unknown Speaker 1:22:31
seven eight years old
Unknown Speaker 1:22:33
his grandmother
Unknown Speaker 1:22:38
and his mother of all the place
Unknown Speaker 1:22:42
has changed
Unknown Speaker 1:22:43
so one day he went back to the pilot and they already came over to him Where do you get that? My grandmother gets here he was the chief of the tribe
Unknown Speaker 1:22:54
he didn't even know it due to this thing and
Unknown Speaker 1:22:58
she went to meet
Unknown Speaker 1:23:01
him he sure enough he did he stopped all of drinking the night homes
Unknown Speaker 1:23:09
remember where that was
Unknown Speaker 1:23:12
the North
Unknown Speaker 1:23:17
nowadays a pro I feel so sorry for Henry
Unknown Speaker 1:23:22
you know they should take reasonable they always say on TV oh we help they honor the elders or guidance
Unknown Speaker 1:23:28
that this elders told us
Unknown Speaker 1:23:31
and he knows so much like there's probably not many other people that would know as far about the history
Unknown Speaker 1:23:38
the last one there is I guess the last one that a
Unknown Speaker 1:23:42
lot of people
Unknown Speaker 1:23:45
know a lot about false being around because close to that
Unknown Speaker 1:23:51
told me more solid
Unknown Speaker 1:23:56
you recall your grandpa's checks
Unknown Speaker 1:24:00
no I don't
Unknown Speaker 1:24:02
where was he from tomatoes
Unknown Speaker 1:24:05
Oh
Unknown Speaker 1:24:07
okay.
Unknown Speaker 1:24:09

Unknown Speaker 1:24:22

Unknown Speaker 1:34:31
The senators from main island
Unknown Speaker 1:34:35
chicken some tea and sugar and flour and everything we talked about.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:40
We're going to stay here and
Unknown Speaker 1:34:46
every place he went fishing.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:49
Alright, right.
Unknown Speaker 1:34:51
So the minister had some say about the land otherwise people wouldn't ask. And also your granddad had knowledge of the local customs. Yeah and the proper way
Unknown Speaker 1:35:00
is
Unknown Speaker 1:35:01
the correct etiquette
Unknown Speaker 1:35:04
Could you explain that bit about the clan beach again? I didn't have
Unknown Speaker 1:35:09
my dad when
Unknown Speaker 1:35:11
he was gonna ask the people
Unknown Speaker 1:35:14
to be clowns
Unknown Speaker 1:35:16
and made ask them how much wanted
Unknown Speaker 1:35:19
selling b2b Selling
Unknown Speaker 1:35:24
they wouldn't allow that to overtake
Unknown Speaker 1:35:27
and he wouldn't
Unknown Speaker 1:35:30
that's substantial Henry they didn't own the land Why did my dad and other people have to ask them if they could fish to Clemson
Unknown Speaker 1:35:39
so they must have known they own the land
Unknown Speaker 1:35:45
now they forgot about
Unknown Speaker 1:35:49
Yeah, I see I had a guy that was just living up there behind me
Unknown Speaker 1:35:54
sending him off normally around the road he comes to
Unknown Speaker 1:35:58
nothing new and asks Can I
Unknown Speaker 1:36:02
so I own the land same as
Unknown Speaker 1:36:05
so we must own the cost here because my dad
Unknown Speaker 1:36:10
is up to par as a foreign official but
Unknown Speaker 1:36:17
he didn't go that far
Unknown Speaker 1:36:23
I know one time he went up to clowns at Sky
Unknown Speaker 1:36:26
and he asked people
Unknown Speaker 1:36:29
who liked him
Unknown Speaker 1:36:35
it should still do it
Unknown Speaker 1:36:37
now you know
Unknown Speaker 1:36:46
