    Amazing find hidden in plain view.

    Recently discovered Shingwauk Student register (1930-1941) in the SRSC archives. If you had a relative who attended Shingwauk in the 1930s/1940s and would like more information or access to a digital copy of the register please get in touch.

    Great read, thanks. No question you inform the staff and follow up on it. We've written elsewhere on this WRT RG 10 records, all freely available on MFilm. Historians and others do have an ethical duty. What this means for access will be interesting.
