    Thank you for going in-depth on your explanations, Janice. I watch these so that I can learn more about specific Archives, and HBCA is important for all the indigenous people in Great Falls, Montana. In our Great Falls Genealogy Society Library (private), we have Gail Morin's books and other materials for our Metis people. You have just shown me a wonderful resource I can introduce people to as they look for more info beyond the Morin records! This 20-minute explanation is FANTASTIC! If you are ever in Great Falls, please look us up--we are a private library holding ourselves open to the public, 6 days a week; we are on the 3rd floor of the public library. Sincerely yours, Janet Thomson, Ed.D.
