Wives and children of the Metis threshing crew at Tom Sheehan's farm near Clairmont include Louise Webber, Mrs. Dave Capot and Mrs. Dan McLean. The babies are strapped into the traditional moss bags which took the place of diapers.
These records cover the history of the occupation of what would become Jasper National Park, from the First Nations Shuswap and Metis peoples, the homesteader families (Moberly, Swift, etc.), and the first Park Wardens in Jasper. This series contains newspaper articles, photocopies of books and journal articles, photographs, transcripts of documents, handwritten notes of commentary and research, an oral history interview on CD, and photographic slides.
