Art McKay's great-grandfather
Art was my cousin. He is not even listed as Anglo-Métis although he was the son of Joseph Fortescue McKay.

His great-grandfather was William McKay a son of

John Richards McKay (aka Little Bearskin) und Harriet Ballenden and John Richards was also my granny's great-grandfather.

William McKay's son, Angus, was Art's grandfather

Angus Mckay's son, Joseph Fortescue McKay, was Art's father.

But John Richards McKay's wife was Mary Favel, so he is also descended from Franco-Métis (or simply put, Métis.)

John Richards McKay's Métis standing is a matter of Canada's historical record.

Angus was married to Annie Maude Mary Fortescue whose father was the son of a Sarah Jane Mason who was daughter of whom?

Among his other maternal ancestors are those descended from Nahoway Sinclair and that is only one other link to the Swampy Cree and other natives of the old Northwest as the great-grandmother of "Little Bearskin" is another unknown, but we know that Donald McKay was one of those to first have children who were "country-born" as he only died in 1792.
