Notes for William MORRISON


!NAME: Morrison, William (1785) [47:1] [J.G. Morrison, Mainly Logging, p.41]

!NAME: Morrison, William [47:1] [Powell 10/0251]

!GENEALOGY: Minnesota Historical Society, R.J. Powell Papers, Microf. M-455,
Roll 10, Powell Genealogies, family #47:1

[John G. Morrison, Mainly Logging, p. 41]
    "born in Montreal in 1785, a year after the organization of
the North East Fur Company there.  In 1798 in Montreal the X.Y. Company was
organized by fur traders who had been excluded from the North West Company,
and they went into the field in opposition to the North West Company.  In 1802
    "William went to work for the Sir Alexander Mackenzie Company, which had
joined with the S.Y. Company, and in JUL he left Grand Portage and in SEP
landed at Leech Lake.  He stayed in this north country and wintered at Rice
Lake, near Lake Itasca (then Elk Lake), in 1803-4, passing through Lake
Bemidji (then Lac Travers) on the way.  In 1804 he crossed into Lake Itasca,
and he claimed to have recognized this as the source of the Mississippi River,
although he made no such report until 1856.  In his party were Cheniers,
Michel and Cheniers, Antoine, McBean, John, Bouvin, Messr., and Grignon, all
traders or field men.
   "In 1805 a coalition too place between the Mckenzie - X.Y. Company
combination and the North West Fur Company, and Uncle Bill was made a member
of the new company.  Fond du Lac (which had been established in 1793) was
retained as the site of an important post, but the post on the north shore of
Lake Superior was moved northeast from Grand Portage to Fort William to avoid
the payment of customs duties to the United States when it seemed certain that
settlement of the international boundary dispute in that area would place
Grand Portage in the United States. ...
   "As a field man for the North West Company Uncle William was n the vicinity
of Leech Lake in 1806 when Zebulon Pike and his party came through there and
shot down the British flag flying over the North West Post on the south shore
of Traders' Bay.  Years later he claimed he could have told Pike the location
of the source of the Mississippi River if he had met him.  In 1811, in the
course of his travels, Uncle Bill again visited Lake Itasca.  The North West
Company had big posts at Fond du Lac, Leech Lake and Sandy Lake and lesser
ones at Pembina, Red Lake, the site of present-day East Grand Forks, Basswood
Lake, Lake Winnibigoshish and around Grand Portage.  Uncle Bill travelled
extensively from post to post and was influential among the Indians who called
him },\,^,}:) Sha gah nah sheence, or "Little Englishman."  He was placed in
charge of a number of posts with his headquarters at Sandy Lake.

!GENEALOGY_COMPILED_BY_VIRGINIA_ROGERS: Broken Tooth Genealogy, #42, he is the
early fur trader who had been given credit for being the first White man to
visit the headwaters of the Mississippi Rver.  He first visited the area in
1804.  You will find then name Morrison many times in Broken Tooth's genealogy.
Morrison County, Minnesota, was named for William Morrison and his brother
Allan, who both married Chippewa women and had many
descendants.
