He was also an important Saulteaux Ojibwa leader during the War of 1812. He was born in 1774. They think he was born near Sault Ste. Marie. He later moved to northern Minnesota then up to Manitoba. During the War of 1812, the English invaded southern Manitoba and established the Red River Colony. It is not known if chief Peguis was a Saulteaux Ojibwa military commander during that conflict. White historians write a deceptive portrait of chief Peguis as being sympthetic towards the whites. That is probably wrong. | He was also an important Saulteaux Ojibwa leader during the War of 1812.

Chief Peguis is thought to have been a mixed blood. Cuthbert Grant was a mixed blood. After the whites established fortified settlements in southern Manitoba, Saulteaux Ojibwa soldiers were sent to attack them. After the 1816 Battle of Seven Oaks, the leaders of the Red River Colony knew they had to cooperate with the far more numerous Saulteaux Ojibwa's who surrounded them. In 1817, chief Peguis signed the Selkirk Treaty. It ended the conflict in southern Manitoba. | Chief Peguis is thought to have been a mixed blood. Cuthbert Grant was a mixed blood.

Chief Peguis and the other Saulteaux Ojibwa leaders, allowed the whites to stay in the south of Manitoba. It was a decision chief Peguis later on regretted. For nearly 65 years, the Saulteaux Ojibwa's subjugated the white invaders who lived in southern Manitoba. Some even lived in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Saskatchewan. In 1870, the Red River Colony was allowed independance by the Saulteaux Ojibwa's. However, those whites who lived in Saskatchewan continued to be subjugated by the Saulteaux Ojibwa's. They were not allowed freedom until the late 1870s. Louis Riel was their leader. | Chief Peguis and the other Saulteaux Ojibwa leaders, allowed the whites to stay in the south of Manitoba.

Chief Peguis is thought to have died on September 28, 1864. However, he actually may have lived until 1922. An Ojibwa man known as John Smith, lived until the age of 137 at Leech Lake Reservation which is located in northern Minnesota. Smith had something wrong with his nose according to his adoptive son. His nose supposedly flapped around while drinking from a cup. | Chief Peguis is thought to have died on September 28, 1864. However, he actually may have lived until 1922.

It is known that chief Peguis had his nose cut in a fight in 1802. He had the nick name of "Cut Nose." That's not the only similarity between chief Peguis and John Smith. Historically, it is known that a Saulteaux Ojibwa leader with the name John Smith, led 100s of Saulteaux Ojibwa's to central Saskatchewan, from the St. Peters Reserve in southeastern Manitoba. | It is known that chief Peguis had his nose cut in a fight in 1802.

They were set aside the Muskoday Reserve and James Smith Reserve in Saskatchewan. White historians are so corrupt, they have written that the Indians of Muskoday and James Smith, are Cree. They are not Cree if they trace their origins to St. Peters Reserve. St. Peters Reserve was located within Saulteaux Ojibwa territory. | They were set aside the Muskoday Reserve and James Smith Reserve in Saskatchewan.

If chief Peguis was in fact the John Smith who died in 1922, he was not 137 when he died. He was 148. Chief Sitting Bull claimed to have been born and raised among the Red River Metis or Saulteaux Ojibwa's. If that's true, he probably knew chief Peguis. Many of the other Saulteaux Ojibwa's from St. Peters Reserve, were forced to relocate to Peguis Reserve in 1907. | If chief Peguis was in fact the John Smith who died in 1922, he was not 137 when he died.

What is fascinating about St. Peters Reserve, is it's identical name to the St. Peters Mission in the Great Falls, Montana region. We know during the time period between 1896 and 1918, several forced deportations of Saulteaux Ojibwa's from around the Great Falls region, happened. White historians are not honest about those deportations. We know Canada was one of the locations the Montana Saulteaux Ojibwa's were deported to. We know both Alberta and Saskatchewan, were locations the Montana Saulteaux Ojibwa's were deported to. | What is fascinating about St. Peters Reserve, is it's identical name to the St. Peters Mission in the Great Falls, Montana region.

For all we know, the Montana Saulteaux Ojibwa's were deported from the Great Falls, Montana region, between 1907 and 1909, to where Peguis Reserve is located in Manitoba. The Saulteaux Ojibwa's of Peguis Reserve and Fisher River Reserve, must seriously do investigative work to learn if a cover-up is in place. | For all we know, the Montana Saulteaux Ojibwa's were deported from the Great Falls, Montana region, between 1907 and 1909, to where Peguis Reserve is located in Manitoba.
