343.0. "Heritage Search" by NRADM::USADGUEST () Fri Aug 24 1990 08:20

    HI!
      This question has nothing to do with the Iraq conflict, the Mohawk
    conflict, or the price of tea in China.... What I want to know is if
    anyone knows the name of the reservation closest to Granby, a small                
    town just outside of Montreal I'm told.  My late Grandfather was                       
    supposedly born on this reservation and I am trying to track down proof
    of my Indian heritage.  I would appreciate any information I could get
    on that area.
    
    
    
                     Thanks

    Don't know exactly, the following might help:
    
    Granby is not really just outside Montr�al, it's about 60 Miles or so
    south-east of Mtl. not too far north from the US-border (I think N.H,
    if not Vermont). Sherbrooke is in this area, too. Maybe you can locate
    it on a map which probably also displays the reservate.
