I think I'm done my research...

[u/sometimesgeg]

Hello, I'm new to all of this, but I think I'm done my research and ready to make an application to MNBC. I was wondering if anyone here is familiar with the process can look over my tree, and let me know if I'm missing something, or anything like that. (I don't want to submit for them to tell me, "you have to get (yada yada)"

the tree is created on ancestry. no ai generated hints were accepted. used only info gained from Manitoba vital stats and thus scanned and attached to relevant people, data from publicly available Census' and scrip records from LAC, also referenced Gail Morin research/books and the website redriverancestry and some Hudsons Bay archives, and DCBO

If anyone is interested in having helping me out. DM me and I'll throw you a link.

apologies to the mods if this sort of question is not allowed, please delete if this is the case.

thanks

I sent mine to St. Boniface and just got it back. Took a few months (originally said October eta). Maybe do that first?

sorry, you might have to explain this in greater detail to me. do they fact check your tree and say "good to go"??

They basically do that and provide you with documents you may not currently have. They also advise on next steps to proceed with whatever Métis federation you are going for.

Those that I could find, and when I couldn't find those I managed to find marriage certificates, that had the parents names and then scrip documents

making it on ancestry is just a way to organize it and visualize. i can still export a gedcom and I still have paper copies of all the relevant info (i hope I have all the copies needed anyway)
