Robert Fulton (d. 1797) emigrated during or before 1751 from Ireland to Boston, Massachusetts, and married twice (once in Ireland). He was a surveyor, and later moved to Londonderry, New Hampshire. He was also a Tory, as were two of his sons, and in 1796 they immigrated to Sophiasburg, Upper Canada (near what is Picton, Ontario). His oldest son and other children remained in New England; their descendants and relatives lived in New England, New York, Florida and elsewhere. Most descendants and relatives of those two sons who immigrated with their father to Sophiasburg lived in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba and elsewhere. Some of these immigrated to Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and elsewhere.

In May of 1868, Elizabeth Bingham Young and her new husband, Egerton Ryerson Young, began a long journey from Hamilton, Ontario, to the Methodist mission of Rossville. For the next eight years, Elizabeth supported her husband’s work at two mission houses, Norway House and then Berens River. Unprepared for the difficult conditions and the “eight months long” winter, and unimpressed with “eating fish twenty-one times a week,” the young Upper Canada wife rose to the challenge. In these remote outposts, she gave birth to three children, acted as a nurse and doctor, and applied both perseverance and determination to learning Cree, while also coping with poverty and short supplies within her community. Her account of mission life, as seen through the eyes of a woman, is the first of its kind to be archived and now to appear in print. Accompanying Elizabeth’s memoir, and offering a counterpoint to it, are the reminiscences of her eldest son, “Eddie.” Born at Norway House in 1869 and nursed by a Cree woman from infancy, Eddie was immersed in local Cree and Ojibwe life, culture, and language, in many ways exemplifying the process of reverse acculturation often in evidence among the children of missionaries. Like those of his mother, Eddie’s memories capture the sensory and emotional texture of mission life, providing a portrait that is startling in its immediacy. Skillfully woven together and meticulously annotated by Jennifer Brown, these two remarkable recollections of mission life are an invaluable addition to the fields of religious, missionary, and Aboriginal history. In their power to resurrect experience, they are also a fascination to read.
