Description |
This paper is part of the Peter Schmalz fonds, series 2, file 2 (Saugeen First Nation and Chippewas of Nawash Unceded First Nation related documents - Newspaper clippings, articles and manuscripts). This was a thesis submitted to the faculty of graduate studies and research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Carleton University. The paper includes a discussion of theories of factionalism, background information about the Indian groups, as well as the Wesleyan Methodist Church whose missionaries were active in the Saugeen Territory during the 1843-1857 period; and a a series of disputes which occurred between 1843 and 1857. "It is hypothesized that it is the government's control of local political power, through the Indian Department, that was the key factor in permitting factionalism to develop and persist." The final pages are missing. There are 79 out of over 85 pages. |
