  • Paul Kane Is Acknowledged to Be One of Canada's Finest Early Artists
    Paul Kane Paul Kane is acknowledged to be one of Canada’s finest early artists – and his first known works were created right here in Cobourg. He had done some painting earlier, when he lived in Toronto – his work had received a favourable review in the press in 1834. But he was just 24 at the time and none of those works remain. Paul was born in Ireland in 1810 but moved to Canada with his family before his teen years. After graduating from Upper Canada College he began a career as a sign and furniture Clench Table painter. In 1834 he moved to Cobourg to work at the first class furniture factory of Freeman Schermerhorn Clench, a prominent citizen of the town. It was then that he began to paint portraits of the Clench family, and it was there that he met young Harriet Clench, the boss’s daughter. Paul remained in Cobourg for only two years, but must surely have returned from time to time to visit Harriet. Some 19 years after they first met, they were married and moved into a fine new home in Toronto. By that time Paul had travelled to Europe, taken a major trip to the Canadian west coast and established his reputation as an artist. And by that time Harriet was an artist and art teacher in her own right. In 1836, having honed his skills in portraiture in Cobourg, Kane was ready to see the world and support himself with his art. For the next five years, he toured the American Midwest, working as an itinerant portrait painter.

    To conduct a simple search of the many GENERAL records of Alaska’ Native People in the National Archives Online Catalog use the search term Alaska Native. To search specific areas or villages see indexes and information below. Alaska Native Villages by Name A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Alaska is home to 229 federally recognized Alaska Native Villages located across a wide geographic area, whose records are as diverse as the people themselves. Customs, culture, artwork, and native language often differ dramatically from one community to another. Some are nestled within large communities while others are small and remote. Some are urbanized while others practice subsistence living. Still, there are fundamental relationships that have endured for thousands of years. One approach to understanding links between Alaska Native communities is to group them by language. This helps the student or researcher to locate related communities in a way not possible by other means. It also helps to define geographic areas in the huge expanse that is Alaska.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.
