"Metis"
When doing First Nation genealogy in Canada, you may read or hear the term Metis. This word comes from the Latin word mixtus 'mixed' to the French word  Métis. Pronounced may-tee. During the 1700 and 1800s many French-Canadian fur traders married native women. The children and descendants are known as Métis. To learn more check out the following pages.
