<p>William Garrioch Jr. was born 4 July 1828 to William Garrioch (of London, England), and Nancy Cook (Métis), a daughter of William Hemmings Cook (of Orkney) and Kahnawpawmakan (Cree). In about 1851, Garrioch Jr. married Mary Brown, daughter of Henry Brown (of Orkney) and his wife Elizabeth/Isabella (of Rupert’s Land).<font color="#7f1d1d">[1]</font></p><p>It appears that initially Garrioch Jr. and wife Mary held an allotment of land near St. Peter’s parish that had been granted by Chief Peguis. As early as 1853, however, they had joined a group of settlers who moved further to the west to establish a new church and parish at St. Mary’s la Prairie. In 1862 Garrioch Jr. sold the St. Peter’s property and concentrated on growing grain at la Prairie, where his brother, John Garrioch, also farmed and taught school.<font color="#7f1d1d">[2]</font> The new parish was formalized on 9 April 1866, and William Garrioch Jr. was named a member of the vestry of St. Mary’s.<font color="#7f1d1d">[3]</font></p><p>On 1 March 1870 Garrioch Jr. was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Assiniboia as representative of the parish of Laprarie.’<font color="#7f1d1d">[4]</font></p><p>Approximately a year after the creation of Manitoba, Garrioch Jr. sold property identified as ‘the certain lot of land No. 1352, of six-chains frontage, on the north side of the Assiniboine River, between Headingley Church and the house of John Taylor’ to John H. McTavish, in conformance with the ‘custom of the country prior to the transfer.’<font color="#7f1d1d">[5]</font></p><p>By 1872, Garrioch Jr., was Justice of the Peace ‘in and for the County of Marquette.’ He was also petitioning various levels of government, along with other ‘original settlers,’ in protest against surveyors, who were encroaching well within the limits of their properties, to mark land as for sale under the homestead clause of he Dominion Lands Act ‘as if the said lands had never previously been occupied.’<font color="#7f1d1d">[6]</font> Garrioch Jr. was subsequently interviewed regarding the settlers’ descriptions of the extent of their properties, but continued to have difficulties.<font color="#7f1d1d">[7]</font> After he signed a reward offer for information on the person responsible for an attack on livestock, and resigned as justice of the peace, he and his wife Mary relocated, with their nine children, to Kinesota/ Kinosota Settlement on Lake Manitoba – the site of a former Hudson’s Bay Company trading post, and an area projected to become a ‘magnificent mixed-farming district.’<font color="#7f1d1d">[8]</font></p><p>Six years later, his sale of property near St. Peter’s a decade before was called into question. Garrioch Jr. had passed on two deeds to the purchaser, William Elliot — one from himself and one from Chief Peguis. When Elliott tried to re-sell the land, however, he was told ‘he had derived no title from Garrioch, he (Garrioch) only holding through Peguis, who had no right to convey the lands, they being vested in the Crown.’<font color="#7f1d1d">[9]</font> Whatever the resolution to his land title problems in Red River, his move to Kinesota appears to have been his last. He was recorded on the 1906 Manitoba census as a widower, 77 years old, and living in Dauphin district 2, sub-district 11 west, township 22, at lot 8, Kinesota with three of his unmarried sons – aged 26 to 32. Together they had had 8 horses, 20 milk cows, and 85 head of beef cattle.<font color="#7f1d1d">[10]</font></p><p><strong></strong></p><p><span style="color: #800080"><strong>Position in Legislative Assembly of Assiniboia:</strong></span></p><ul><li><span style="color: #800080">Honourable Member for St. Mary’s la Prairie</span> </li></ul>

<p>A Probe Into the Demographic Structure of Nineteenth Century Red River<br>by Frits Pannekoek</p><p>(full document attached separately)</p><p>Among the principal patriarchs of Red River were William Hemmings Cook,James Bird, and Peter Corrigal. Chief Factor William Hemmings Cook was 53 years of age when he arrived in the settlement in 1820. Short, husky, dark-haired and swarthy-looking, Cook had spent 33 years in the service of the Company before petitioning the London Committee of the Hudson's Bay Company in 1815 to let his family settle somewhere in Rupert's Land. Within a few years of 1820 Cook was settled with Mary Cocking, his third wife whom he had married in the custom of the country, and his children: Samuel, 21; Mary, 20; Jeremiah, 19; Charles, 16; and Lydia, Jenny, Catherine, and Joseph all of indeterminate age.<br><br>Cook first established his household on a narrow piece of land between the Red and Seine Rivers, but in 1824 moved with his family to Image Plain where he had two five-hundred-acre lots. This was a considerably more congenial area already settled by an increasing number of Cook's fur trade friends.<br><br>The patriarchical pattern was typical of the bulk of the settlers such as Henry Hallet, Humphrey Favel, William Garrioch. and William Flett . Humphrey Favel had been a clerk and retired in the 1820s with his two sons Humphrey Jr. and Thomas.
