Jennifer S.H. Brown, "Chief Jacob Berens," Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 14 (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1998). A. Irving Hallowell dated Jacob's birth to 1832; others, translating his name to "Something That Moves Across the Sky" - a reference to Halley's comet - believe he was born in 1834. He married Mary McKay whose father, William McKay, was a Hudson's Bay Company trader at the Trout Lake post in Ontario's Severn River drainage. By the signing of Treaty 5 in 1875, Jacob had been back at Pigeon Bay for five years - living in one of the area's first log houses and trading furs with the Berens River Hudson's Bay post. Methodism and log houses notwithstanding, the old ways were a major part of both family and community life for Jacob whose father, Bear, held shaking tent and Midewiwin ceremonies until his death in 1873. Jacob was a leader in the treaty negotiations and was elected chief of Berens River, Little Grand Rapids, Poplar River and Pikiangikum. This moved him onto centre stage in a region facing significant transitions. After 1875, Jacob became an active regional player in the bureaucratic world of Indian Affairs.

AD, box L581.M27L, no. 20. Cubby Green was Walter Green's father. Interestingly, William Berens himself got involved in this struggle, working with Green and Jones. He said that although he had received no official authority to return the children to Cubby, he was chief and had a right to rule his band. Leach wrote in exasperation, "The chief has not acted in an impartial manner as he should have done for he has admitted that he tried to influence the guardians to relinquish their rights of guardianship, especially Miss Sarah Shaw."

Robert Choquette, "L'Histoire de l'Eglise de l'Ouest: hier et aujourd'hui," paper presented at the Fourth Western Oblate Studies Conference, Winnipeg, 25 August 1995. As well, whether one wrote for a public as opposed to a private audience made a difference to both style and content.
