So, one can see that in the Incorporation documents of the Association Articles of the Cowasuck North America, Inc. N-8024 (in the previous posting) regarding Cindy and Harry Shover of Orleans, Vermont....that for whatever reason(s) it would seem that Harry and Cindy Shover were resigning from this Inc. on September 04, 1996 because of a "smear campaign" that involved Howard F. Knight, Jr. and Darrell R. Larocque, who was associated quite closely with "Chief" Homer Walter St. Francis Sr. and "Grand Chief" Walter Watso, etc.

This "List c/c" is quite revealing too. Interesting that they did not include Paul Wilson Pouliot's name to the bunch.

In the next following post, I think the "reason" why Paul Pouliot was NOT included on this "LIST" compiled by Darrell R. Larocque will be explained in the next document. Of course, perhaps the "LIST" extended onto the 2nd page (of which sadly I do not have) may have had Paul Pouliot's name listed; but obviously these "Chief's" (especially Howard F. Knight Jr. in particular) that are listed on this document, were actively doing a "smear campaign" against Mr. Pouliot's early 1993 created Cowass North America, Inc. "group" for various reason(s).

Document 01: Fax Page 04. Letter dated June 02, 1995 from the Town of Swanton, Vermont to Mr. David Hill at 7 West Minister Street, Suite ?1 in Bellows Falls, VT 05101. "Dear Mr. Hill: Per our telephone conversation, enclosed pleased find Homer St. Francis's birth certificate we have recorded in our Town Office. On this certificate it states his parents races. I hope this is helpful. Very truly yours, Judy Vanslette, Asst. Town Clerk.

Document 02: Fax Page 03. Birth Certificate Index Card of Florence Hakey Card No. 840. Date of Birth: 1896 Month July Day 4. Maiden Name of Mother: Delia (Martelle). Mother's Birthplace: Swanton. Mother's Residence: Swanton. Full Name of Father: Eli.

Father's Birthplace: Spencer, Mass. Father's Occupation: Laborer. Certified Copy Attest A. John Yacavoni, Director Public Records Division State of Vermont Date: Nov. 12, 1996.

Document 03: Fax Page 02. Chart of the St. Francis Family. Abenakis of Missisquoi from official records. *Indians from oral tradition. Apparently, David Hill was indicating his lineage was of Pierre-Jean a.k.a. Greylock a.k.a. Wawanolewat and his wife Helene., down to their son Jean Baptiste a.k.a. La Tete Blanche a.k.a. The White Head and whose sister Charlotte married to Francis Michisabuke a.k.a. Captain Francis a.k.a. Titigaw (Chief at Missisquoi) whose son Captain St. Francis married to Jean Claude and they had Francis St. Francis who married to Charlotte, and they had a son Michel Frances a.k.a. Mitchel St. Francis who married to Cordelia Collaret or Colomb, and they had Nazaire St. Francis who married to Agles Stag and or Clara Hoag. Then they had Nazaire St. Francis Jr. who married to Florence Hakey, who then had Homer W. St. Francis Sr. who married to Patricia "Patsy" Partlow. Again, the question begs to be answered, IS this genealogical information correct. Eventually I will show and provide the genealogical documentary evidence on this family ancestry of the St. Francis family. It is indeed an interesting genealogical chart, but I ponder if it is legitimately correct in its details.

Document 04: Fax Page 01. Certified True Copy of Birth Certificate regarding Homer Walter St. Francis Sr., son of Nazaire St. Francis Jr. and Florence Hakey. This birth record clearly indicated that the ethnicity of the said son, is "White".

Apparently, David Hill was beginning to investigate, review and evaluate the merits of genealogical foundations for these so-called "Chiefs" of his own interest and agenda in late May or early June 1995. 

Document 05: Birth Certificate of Homer Walter St. Francis Sr. Non Certified copy. Note that the parents and the son are identified as ethnic "White" on the record of birth for Homer Walter St. Francis on January 19, 1935 in Swanton, Franklin County, Vermont.

Kwai Kwai Karen,
I will try to list the pertinent pages so you do not have to read through all the pages of my manuscript. As you have already found, the specific names of the Knight family members begins on page 84 through page 106, to my Grandfather Knight. Then pages 112 to 114 refer to some "out of wedlock" children in the early 1940's of my grandfather by a Mrs Farron from Sugar Hill, NH.
Also referenced on page 114 are prior "out of wedlock" children by my grandfather while he was still married to my Grandmother, Ida May Gear-Giguere. This way you will be able to get all of the possible children my grandfatehr fathered. Who knows, some day someone may show up and be one of these missing links.

* Please Note remarks on page 126, by Richard "Skip" Bernier, now the Chief of the Odenak Family of Newport, and grandfather to one of the Vt Commission of Indian Affairs members, Steven or Stephen (Timothy) DeLaBreurre (actually this is Richard "Skip" Bernier's grandson Tim De la Bruere), regards the Geer-Gear-Giguere Fasmily and where they are at, in and around Odenak.

You must read the entire section as this was why the Odenak people (Richard "Skip" Bernier, now Chief of The Odenak Families of Newport, Vt,) wanted me out of the picture and why I was assaulted in 2000 & 2001. (emphasis added) I have indirect ties to Odenak through the Watso family and a common link of his and my lineage through the ancient Abenaki family named Ne8nsozak, meaning "Ancient Reations From The Woods" to several families listed in this section, to include DuBois.

I have truied to make eevrything as brief as possible to cut down the time to put it tgether and to make it easier for you. Also, the pages about the "Nude Follies", of my dad and his family and friends, I mentioned so you could get a little laughter for your hard working day.

As to the CONSACK Lineage, it is definately tied to the Watso and related families that are tied to my family as you will see in the page listings and you read the pertinent pages. Some of the other families, I did not jknow might be connected to mine. I have heard of Godin and was told once it might be related but I have never followed it up as never time enough to do so.

Let me know if this information helps. What I have is what I have. As to the Consack and related families, I only know what is referenced in the various pages as to Watso and related families. I hope this all helps you to do that lineatge and also mine in a shorter time.

You take care and stay well and treat yourself well. I send my best of regards and respects to you and hope all is going well for you. It is late so I will get a little sleep as I have a long day tomorrow. take care. Akwanna and Adio.
Respectfully Yours,

My Commentary:
MAYBE ODANAK'S BAND COUNCIL AND REGISTRY OFFICE CAN CONFIRM OR DENY THE CONCLUSIONS OF HOWARD F. KNIGHT'S CLAIMS IN THIS EMAIL OF SEPT. 25, 2006. IF HOWARD'S GRANDMOTHER IDA MAY GEER - KNIGHT WAS INDEED ABENAKI FROM ODANAK AS HE CLAIMS SHE WAS, WHY ISN'T HE, HOWARD FRANKLIN KNIGHT JR. A MEMBER OF ODANAK'S ABENAKI COMMUNITY?!

TO ME, HOWARD F. KNIGHT JR. HAS PROVEN HIMSELF OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO BE A CON-ARTIST, A SCHEME-ARTIST, AND A BLANTANT MOUTHY LIAR AND DISTORTIONIST AGAINST THE ABENAKI PEOPLE AND THEIR ANCESTORS! PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG IN MY CONCLUSIONS.

WHO COMES FROM HOMER WALTER ST. FRANCIS AND HOWARD FRANKLIN KNIGHT JR.'S DECEIT, DECEPTION, LIES, AND MANIPULATIONS OVER THE YEARS?

ANSWER:
1. Paul Wilson Pouliot, 2. Ralph Skinner Swett, 3. Brain Chenevert, 4. Nancy Lee Millette, 5. Eric Floyd, 6. Charles F. True Jr. and many more self-declared and fraudulant "Chief's" than one can shake a stick at. Right along with the late 7. Darrell Larocque and ALSO 8. John Moody, and 10. Frederick M. Wiseman. Etc.
To me, based on the documentation of all of these "chiefs", etc. and their historical doing's and going's on, confirms to me that the late Odanak Chief Gilles O'Bomsawin was absolutely and 100% percent correct in his position against the B.S. going on down in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts by these "groups" of Alleged and Re - Invented "Abenaki" groups!

These people, these "Chiefs" who self-proclaim to be representing the Abenakis, want Official Vermont and or New Hampshire State Recognition in Vermont and or New Hampshire (through their crafted Bills S. 124, S.222 and hb 1610, and sympathic their Legislative advocates such as Daniel Carr in suthern N.H. etc.) based on the fact that they are merely I-N-C-O-R-P-O-R-A-T-I-O-N-S. These "groups" do not want ANYONE to review, evaluate or examine the so-called "internal" merits or foundation of their claims, genealogies, historical social histories. WHY?

THINK ABOUT IT

Odanak Band Council Letter August 16, 2000 ~and~September 29, 2003 Odanak Band Council Resolution Revoking Recognition of Swanton VT's Abenaki Group led by Homer and his daughter April St. Francis-Merrill:

Document 01: Letter document from Conseil De Bande D'Odanak Band Council dated August 16, 2000 to Mr. Richard R. "Skip" Bernier of 35 Abenaki Drive in Newport, Orleans County, Vermont USA. "Mr. Bernier, With this letter, the Band Council of Odanak recognizes ONLY the Odanak Abenaki Family of Vermont with full recognition and status, back to our homeland. We hope to continue our stong ties with this family as the years pass. They are truly following our culture, as it should be and we the people of Odanak are proud to see the true native culture and basic needs being lived on our native ancestral land to the south. May this family continue to push forward in years to come. Sincerely, Gilles O'Bomsawin, Chief for the Odanak Council." 102, rue Sibosis, Odanak (Quebec) JOG 1HO Telephone: 450-568-2810.

Obviously, as of August 16, 2000 Gilles O'Bomsawin was beginning to "see" that there were fraudulant, mainpulative, deceitful persons and people/groups self proclaiming to being Abenakis down in Vermont and New Hampshire that have had no genealogical basis or foundation to be claiming such an appropriated Aboriginal Native Identity.

It is interesting to note, that Howard Franklin Knight Jr. was one such party who claimed and claims his grandmother Ida May Geer/Gear who married Franklin W. Knight, was born in or at Odanak, Quebec, Canada in January 1888. Perhaps Mr. "Skip" Bernier himself and Mr. Howard F. Knight Jr. were finding out one and the other of each other, that one was legitimately Abenaki (Bernier) and the other was not (Knight)? It is known from documentation, that Howard F. Knight was retrospectively-speaking communicating with Gilles O'Bomsawin regarding David Hill

Knight Jr. who alerted the late Odanak Chief Gilles O'Bomsawin to the schemes and ffraudulant "appropriation" of Abenaki identity without genealogical or historical merit by these so-called alleged and invented "Chiefs" of these alleged and invented "Abenaki" groups down in Vermont of which we all know that Mr. Howard F. Knight Jr. was claiming to be, that caused Gilles O'Bomsawin to create this 2000 letter, and also do this Resolution to revoke and null and void Walter Watso's previous Odanak/ Wolinak Resolution of 1976 and 1977 (?). Secondly, Howard Knight Jr. was laying claim to being allegedly genealogically connected to the Watso, O'Bomsawin and Degonzaque/ Consack families. I will have to post this September 25, 2006 email communication Howard F. Knight Jr. sent to Karen Mica or Majka in my next post.

Document 02: Resolution De Bande d'Odanak/ Odanak Band Resolution #Chronologique GOB-046003-04. Dated September 29, 2003. Province de: Quebec.

Decide, par les presentes: "While we recognize that the Band Councils of Odanak and Wolinak issued resolutions in 1976 and 1977 recognizing the St. Francis/ Sokoki Band of Abenakis as a group of Abenakis living in the United States, we also recognize that these resolutions were not based on any genealogical or historical evidence linking these "St. Francis/Sokoki" to our Abenaki and Sokoki ancestors. 

We also recognize that the number of organizations claiming to being Abenaki in the United States and in Canada has increased greatly since that time, again without genealogical and historical evidence presented to this Council.

Therefore, we resolve that the Couseil de Band d'Odanak does not recognize at this time any organizations claiming to be Abenaki First Nations in the United States or Canada, with the exceptions of our brothers and sisters at Wolinak and Penobscot. We, of course, also recognize our fellow Wobanaki First Nation- the Passamaquoddy, Malecite and Mi'kmaq.

We further resolve that organizations claiming to be Abenaki and particularly their leadship, are invited to send their genealogical and historical documentation to the Conseil de Bande d'Odanak, so that we might review the information to assess whether or not there is any truth to their genealogical claims.

Let it be resolved, that Chief Gilles O'Bosawin sent letters to the Conseil de Bande di Wolinak, to the Penobscot nation and to the Grand Conseil de la Nation Waban-aki, encouraging them to pass similar resolutions." Quorum (3) Chef Gilles O'Bomsawin; Clement Sadaques, Conseiller; Michel Hannis, Conseiller; Eddy O'Bomsawin, Conseiller; and Denis Gill, Conseiller.

My Commentary:

These two particular documents amongst others was mailed to me "anonymously" sometime before Christmas and arrived to me on December 26th, 2009. Whoever sent this, I thank you ever so kindly for having done so.

So, what this Document of September 29th, 2003 does is REVOKE the two Resolutions signed by Walter Watso of Odanak in August 1976 and early 1977 ~ and seemingly also that of which Noel St. Aubin of Wolinak signed as well. See postings of this blog dated October 16, 2009 regarding August 15, 1977 Odanak Letter Regarding Walter Watso and Howard Franklin Knight Jr. LINK: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/2009/10/august-15-1997-odanak-letter-regarding.html and LINK: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/2009/11/step-4-forward-along-yellow-brick-road.html in particular: November 04, 1977: At the request of Arthur "Bill" Seymour and Kent Ouimette, Chief Noel St. Aubin of Wolinak's Abenaki Community situated in the Province of Quebec, Canada, issued a Resolution from the Abenakis of Becancour (Wolinak) in support of all of the Abenakis in the United States.

LINK: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/2009/11/step-16-forward-along-yellow-brick-road.html in particular: Hmmmm, let's take a "little mental trip down memory lane" to August 06, 1992. Per these documents that are being posted on this blog, Howard F. Knight Jr. recieved from Homer St. Francis Sr, the document signed by Odanak Abenaki Community resident and Chief Walter Watso on August 20, 1976 and rec'd by Homer St. Francis on Aug 27, 1976 which Homer St. Francis had notarized on August 30, 1976 in Swanton, Vermont (See: Posting on this blog "Step 06" January 03, 1977 Apendix C of Haviland and Powers Book The Original Vermonters). This Document will be Exhibit #22 of which I just made mention of.
LINK: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/2009/11/step-27-forward-along-yellow-brick-road.html

In conclusion, the State Legislature's of both Vermont and New Hamsphire NEED to comprehend that Odanak, a known legitimately documented, historical, continuous, and cohesive Abenaki COMMUNITY does NOT recognize on any OFFICIAL STANDING anyone claiming to being Abenaki, without first having the claimant(s) genealogical foundation(s), and their historical records to substantiate that the claimant(s) are definitively, clearly and convincingly, of Abenaki descent. Obviously, Odanak's late Chief Gilles O'bomsawin knew of these Vermont - New Hampshire and Massachusetts Incorporated "groups" fraudulantly claiming to being representatives of the Abenaki People, and began addressing these dynamics and issues in August 2000 and again with this official Odanak Band Resolution on September 29, 2003. Odanak came to conclusion that the "St. Francis/ Sokoki" group led by the late Homer St. Francis (and now led by his daughter April Merrill in 2009), did not in 1976, 1977, 2000 or in 2003 nor in 2005 have ANY EVIDENCE of being Abenaki, St. Francis Indians or Sokoki.

Perhaps the State's of Vermont and New Hampshire Legislative Political Representatives would like to ignore this dynamic in 2010 (?) i.e. that these "groups" (which are merely splintered off Inc. created "groups" from Homer. St. Francis's "group" or from Howard F. Knight Jr.'s "group") are attempting to "become Abenakis" bestowed and crowned with official State Legislature status as being legitimately "Abenaki" Tribes and or Bands. WITHOUT any genealogical evidence of their ancestors having been Abenaki who had connection(s) to any legitimate historical cohesive or continuous Abenaki Community.

I cannot emphasize enough, that the State Legislature and Political Representatives NEED to take the time and investigate, review and evaluate these alleged Abenaki groups claims of being legitimate and bonefide Abenakis. If Odanak, Quebec, Canada's Abenaki Community and Wolinak's Abenaki Community Chief's were putting out letter's and Official Resolutions like this, then the Legislature's of Vermont and New Hampshire regarding Bill's S. 124, 222 and the other's in New Hampshire ought to take a time and study/ review just what is knocking repeatedly at their door. Are these "groups" of alleged and reinvented Abenakis really honestly legitimately Abenakis, or are they frauds, fakes and wannabe's who are merely Incorporations?!

Obviously and apparently Odanak, a legitimate historical, cohesive and continous definitively genealogically-based Abenaki Community concluded that these "groups" down in Vermont and New Hampshire, including some in Quebec, Canada were fakes, frauds and wannabe Abenakis that had no genealogical or historical merit to be claiming that they were Abenaki.

Read the B.I.A. Conclusions on Swanton's St. Francis/ Sokoki "group" of November 09, 2005.

I will be posting further documents on this blog......keep checking back. I got A LOT MORE actual documents regarding Howard F. Knight Jr., Emerson Garfield, Nancy Millette Doucet, John Moody, April Merrill, Paul Pouliot, and many many more people, who were claiming to be representing the Abenaki as "Chief's" and so on.

Grab your hip-wader's and goggles too. I'd strongly suggest a person go to the hardware store downstreet there and pick up a loooooonnnnnnnnnnggggggggg plastic pipe too. About the diameter of a dime say and about maybe three foot long. That way you can breath when the so-called Abenaki B.S. here in Vermont and New Hampshire gets so deep, a person won't drown in it. Might also want to pick up a set of them ear plugs too while you folks are at it. Just thought I'd warn you kindly said, because from the likes of it, there ain't a shovel made in heaven going to help clean up this mess.

This was because my initial inquiry resulted in ONLY obtaining the Decision of such Hearing. From that PDF attachment, because of the words "evidence" and "exhibits" therein (within the Hearing Decision) I became aware that there was further documents that needed review, evaluation and examination SO, I sought those Hearing documents from the MA Sec. of States Office as a matter of PUBLIC RECORD.

Kindly, I am seeking information documentarily about this Corp. Hearing and the results thereof.

"A corporation protest hearing was held on Jan. 26, 1993 by the MA Sec. of State. The
Abenaki Nation was represented by the Coos Council Chief Paul Pouliot aka Spirit
Hawk, Coos Tribal Judge Robert Maynard aka Spirit Wind, and the Abenaki Ambassador of the Missisquoi-Sokoki Roger Desharnais aka Running Elk. We were here to protect the tribal name of the Abenaki Sokoki band and to establish that a Corporation could not be formed to "create" a tribe. Treaty documents between the Abenaki Nation and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from the 1790's were shown to be signed by the Coos (Cowasuck), Missisquoi, and Sokoki bands."

FYI - Kwai All - To all Tribal Leaders, Genealogists, and Record Keepers

On March 1, 2010, Massachusetts CMR 17.00 “Standards for the Protection of Personal Information of Residents of the Commonwealth” will go into effect and businesses (including non-profits) across the United States will need to be in compliance - this is a “wake-up call” for community attention and action. You may wonder why a tribal organization located outside Massachusetts may need to comply with this law.

Massachusetts enacted the most stringent data privacy law in the country, which basically says that if you keep personal information about a resident, donor, or business from Massachusetts, you will be required to protect the private / personal information of those residents and businesses. Any organization that has members or donors from Massachusetts will need to be in compliance with this law. I am NOT an “organization”, “Non-Profit” nor “Incorporation”.

Most of you are aware that our Cowasuck Band records were stolen in 2005 and recently many of our alleged internal records, documents, and correspondence have been posted on rogue internet web-sites (Paul Wilson Pouliot MUST be referring to my blog “The Reinvention of the Abenaki in Vermont and New Hampshire”) Also NOTICE how Mr. Pouliot “pluralizes” “internet web-sites” when in reality contrary to his paranoia, my afore mentioned blog is “singular” (maybe I ought to really go “rogue” and do more blogs concerning genealogical records of these groups, their so-called “Chiefs” and “citizens”?!.) These documents were not authorized or released from us for their use (I don’t need Pouliot’s “authorization” or their release from Paul & Denise, nor from their Inc. Non-Profit Organization, these documents are a matter of public record already), they came from genealogists, past Band members, and alleged thieves that have or had unauthorized access to our records.

(Actually, according to my awareness) ANYTHING, ANY DOCUMENTS WHATSOEVER, and this includes genealogical records, etc. that is submitted to a NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION is OPEN TO PUBLIC INSPECTION and REVIEW, and as such, these documents ARE A MATTER OF PUBLIC RECORD.) Correct me if I am wrong.

Our alleged record theft as well as the unauthorized and unlawful use of our records of any type and content may allegedly become the basis for future legal action. The unauthorized public use of alleged tribal documents, member records, and donor records is unlawful because they are or were not lawfully obtained from public record sources. (Paul Wilson Pouliot & Co. can imply and proclaim all they want to, that they are a “Tribe” or that their records are “Tribal Documents”, but in reality and truth, their “group” is merely yet another self created and self promoted State Sanctioned Incorporation which continues to go about claiming and proclaiming to being “Cowasuck” and or “Pennacook”. Actually, as a Non-Profit Organization, ALL OF THEIR RECORDS, AS IT PERTAINS TO ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION, ARE A MATTER OF PUBLIC RECORD, INCLUDING THEIR DONORS AND FINANCIAL RECORDS.

We have been informed that allegedly confidential and related court records from our Band have been posted on the internet relevant to child welfare cases that we have been involved in. Regardless of the sources, such disclosures allegedly serve no public service or good. The outcome of making these types of documents publicly available on the internet is allegedly malicious, harmful, and unethical in all respects. Furthermore, the alleged public and internet  exploitation of these families, their children, and their alleged personal records is viewed as an effort to allegedly further “victimize,” abuse, and ridicule these parties. Whenever we are enjoined to protect children we act accordingly regardless if they have “certified” genealogical proof of their ancestry. We have no responsibility to satisfy genealogical critics that stand in righteous critical judgment of our actions. (yet more of Pouliot's B.S.)

These record documents posted on my Blog entitled “The Reinvention of the Vermont Abenaki” (later changed to “The Reinvention of the Abenakis of Vermont and New Hampshire”), came from the MA Secretary of State’s Office as a matter of PUBLIC RECORD. ANYONE can obtain these records for themselves, just as I did with the required written request and paid photocopy and postage fee’s. All I did was have to pay the necessary $53.10 for the photocopying of such documents to the Secretary of State’s Office via Pauline Gunther, Administrative/Legal Assistant William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth's Office at One Ashburton Place, Room 1710 Boston, MA 02108. The requested and paid for PUBLIC Documents were received by me, Douglas Lloyd Buchholz on November 09, 2009.


Regarding the Sherrie A. DeVee – Jinks – Labat historical information….again that was documented in PUBLICALLY SOURCED DOCUMENTS, such as local newspapers in California, and misc. other PUBLIC RECORDS. Obviously Lynn Menard – Mathieson had shared some information with me pertaining to various persons. I was NOT nor am I attempting to “victimize”, abuse, or ridicule these parties of the DeVee – Jinks – or Labatt family members. ONLY to SHOW and PROVIDE the documentary evidence that equals COLLUSION BETWEEN THESE ALLEGED AND REINVENTED ABENAKIS IN VT, NH, CA, WA, and MA.


By the way, YES ONE DOES HAVE TO SATISFY GENEALOGICAL CONNECTION TO THE ABENAKI PEOPLE/ ANCESTORS when one has implied and stated that you are Native, Indian, Abenaki or Cowasuck IF one has attempted to deceive the Commonwealth of MA, VT, and or CA that one's group is BIA Recognized or attempted to use the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 deviously and with deception. So, a question needs to be answered, HOW INVOLVED WAS PAUL WILSON POULIOT in the matter of the Sherrie A. DeVee Judicial matter in California? Why does he become so concerned about this historical matter that involved Howard F. Knight Jr., and the other parties afore mentioned in my Blog?! Perhaps further investigation is warranted “deeper” into that case?! It’s called COLLUSION.

The text for this new law is at:

http://www.mass.gov/Eoca/docs/idtheft/201CMR1700reg.pdf

….provided, however, that “Personal information” shall not include information that is lawfully obtained from publicly available information, or from federal, state or local government records lawfully made available to the general public.

Paul Wilson Pouliot NEEDS (before he spits out some more stupidly concocted implied threats of legal action and obvious distortions of his) to re-read this above document, because the documents and records I have are obtained from publically available information from various parties within the various "Abenaki Communities" and from federal, state or local government records lawfully made available to the general public.

Here is one example of a genealogist agreement:

Have a Good New Year
Paul Pouliot 12/28/09.
Please distribute this message as you wish to other interested people within the greater Indian community.
P.S. Nowhere on these documents is there "For Your Eyes Only", "Confidential" nor a COPYRIGHT on them. Only in 1997 did this "group" led by Paul Wilson Pouliot did they Copyright their issued Newsletter's.

Oh, another question that needs to be asked, is that since Paul Wilson Pouliot lives, and resides in the Township of Alton, Belknap County, New Hampshire, (even though his "Non-Profit Incorporation Cowass North America, Inc." is incorporated in Massachusettts, what legal standing or merit does a pending Massachusetts Law CMR 17.00 have to do with a New Hampshire legal resident such as myself? I am not an Organization, a Non-Profit nor an Incorporation. I am merely taking what documents and records I have retained, collected or have recieved and putting them on my blog.
Obviously, Paul Wilson Pouliot nor his wife, Denise have any rememberance of what the New Hampshire District Court Judge stated in his conclusions regarding Mrs. Doucet (Nancy Millette) and myself.

I will continue to post on this blog, ANY DOCUMENT that I conclude NEEDS to be on it, of Historical or Genealogical Merit.

It is no secret WHY Mr. Pouliot has spit this diatribe of b.s. which is obviously directed towards my person. All one has to do is review the recent postings on this blog of late.

What is so fascinating to me, is when investigating and exposing Mrs. Nancy Millette - Doucet's documented PUBLIC RECORDS and ANCESTRAL CONNECTIONS, not a peep, not even squeak of protest or threat came from Mr. Pouliot. He even voluntarily came to that Haverhill District Court Hearing in Grafton County, New Hampshire regarding myself and Mrs. Doucet back on July 06, 2009. Yet, not that the "investigation" has spun around and directed its magnifying lense at Paul Wilson Pouliot's "foundation and merits as an alleged Abenaki/ Cowasuck/ Pennacook Tribe or Band....of course, now he implies threats, complains, bitches, whines, points his fingers elsewhere and so on.

Paul Wilson Pouliot was and has been in collusion with Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. and the documented records will show and provide this evidence. Obviously, Paul Wilson Pouliot would not like to see these documents come to the PUBLIC'S attention nor that of the legitimately documented Abenakis within VT, MA, NH, Quebec, and elsewhere. Clearly, I am not going to be intimidated, threatened, coerced, decieved, manipulated nor distracted from the task at hand.

Have A GOOD NEW YEAR TOO PAUL W. POULIOT & INC. COMPANY.

HO HO HO. Oh, and thank you for the Christmas Card too Paul Wilson Pouliot and Denise.

A Response from Lynn Menard - Mathieson dated Dec. 27, 2009:

VT and NH bills to make Natives and gain state recognition dated Sunday, December 27, 2009 1:02 PM

Hello all,
There are groups there that badly want State recognition. Vermont has had several bills and has 3 now on the table. New Hampshire has a bill of their own in which at least one group involved in the Vermont bills is also included in the New Hampshire one. I understand the Cowasuck Band has not given up in Massachusetts yet either. What is happening that groups have interests in several states? As I understand it they have not proven their genealogy and don't intend to either. This is my biggest objection to all of this. I have nothing against commissions or people being recognized. HOWEVER be prepared to back up your claims especially when there are some of us out here that have these peoples genealogy and are not seeing what they are trying to get the State legislatures to believe!

The New Hampshire bill comes up in January 2010, (NEXT MONTH). I am sick of seeing these attempts year after year and overwhelmed by trying to get the information out and writing letters (These "groups" of alleged and reinvented Abenaki of NH and VT hope we will become so overwhlemed that we give up and shut up). Eventually I suppose they will get what they want since no sooner is a bill shot down, they are crafting a new one to take its place. If you can help please do so!

A bill so the VT commission on Native affairs can recognize "natives" as tribes and bands?

Commentary:


This bill, identical to H.R. 7024 and S. 1255 in the 110th Congress and S. 151 in the current Congress, reduces penalties for some violations of the prohibition on misrepresenting goods for sale as having been produced by Native Americans. Under current law, knowing violations are punishable by criminal fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment of up to five years for a first offense, and by criminal fines of up to $1,000,000 and imprisonment of up to 15 years for subsequent offenses. This legislation would change the penalty structure in two ways. First offenses concerning goods worth less than $1,000 would be punishable by fines of up to $25,000 and imprisonment of up to a year, and fines for subsequent offenses would be calculated under Title 18 rather than set in the specific provision.


Is anyone aware that in the Vermont and New Hampshire there are groups of people claiming to be Abenaki Indians and wanting State recognition so they can sell their arts and crafts as Native made yet they will not provide the genealogy proving their claims? I understand that the Vermont Commission on Native American Affairs has worked with Federal Arts and Crafts board to get to this desired end. Shouldn't people have to prove who they are first?


http://vcnaa.com/native/content/view/786/38/ This new bill opens with: Statement of purpose: This bill proposes to recognize certain bands within the

8 Abenaki Nation as the original Native American tribes residing in Vermont, to

9 give the Vermont commission on Native American affairs the authority to

10 recognize other tribes and bands of Native Americans, and to set out the

11 procedures and criteria for granting recognition.

How can a commission have the authority to recognize "tribes and bands" within the State as Vermont is trying for? One of these "tribes" the St Francis Sokoki has already been denied by the BIA: http://www.abenakination.org/BIA.pdf and Vermont's State's Attorney also weighed in against them in his report: http://www.abenakination.org/STATE.pdf

Paul Pouliot moved to New Hampshire 2 years ago.... historic and cultural contributions to the state? I guess you would have to be familiar with his particular brand of bullsh** to know better.


For those who are not familiar with this blog: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/ it is a culmination of 15 years of the blog owner's collection of documents, newspaper clippings, and opinions. He arrived from Washington State as an approved St Francis Sokoki member, and has lived on this coast ever since, through the dramas and pettiness, keeping a detailed account until he finally posted this blog. Though no longer a member of any group for many years, he has kept up on the personalities and claims being made within the communities. A very interesting read. A blog you should take the time to go through.

I was a member of the Cowasuck Band of the Pennacook Abenaki. Once elected to council it only took 2 years for those in "command" to decide that I was not going to be bought off and had to be gotten rid off.. I was the genealogist, an elder, a sub Chief, CT State business agent, and sat on the board of directors for their real objective, the 501 non profit business, Cowass North America. The criteria for genealogy varied depending on who you were and what you did for the "tribe", leaving all others to abide by the rules agreed on. I believe they (Mr & Mrs Pouliot) felt I needed to be removed when I objected to this, a year into my stellar position. However they let me finish the genealogy compilations for them first and for free on my part. I kept a copy of all I did which is why I am disturbed by their aspirations. Some time later, when I asked about financial documents on the non profit, I was refused. This is not the way a legitimate business is conducted and I could only assume the worse. There are many other instances that I could talk about having been close enough to their "council fire" to get burned but will not bother to go into it here. The point is, I know the Pouliot's and am not sorry I resigned at all. The sad part is that there are those who are not involved with the group, only belong for the privilege of holding an ID card, and think the group is legitimate and going to get BIA status. So they keep sending them money for newsletter subscriptions. A newsletter written, edited, and compiled solely by Paul Pouliot.

Koasek Newsletter December 2009 Pages 14 through 16; Etc:

Document 01: Page 14 of the Koasek Inc. Newsletter dated December 2009 received by Douglas Lloyd Buchholz via email attachment from Eric Floyd of Pittsfield, Massachusetts. "NH Bill to Create a NA Affairs Commission. Two weeks ago, I (Paul Bunnell Co-Chief or Sub-Chief of this Koasek Inc. "group") attended a meeting of the New Hampshire Native American Intertribal Affairs hosted by Bill and Sherry Gould at their home to promote a united front for the support of Representative Carr's Bill to create a Native American Commission for the State of New Hampshire. Others in attendance were, Peter Newell performing the outreach, Liz Charlebois (who rents from and lives adjacent to Bill and Sherry Gould), Denise and Paul Pouliot (who reside not even a half an hour away from Bill and Sherry Gould's home and also Denise has been learning Ash and Sweetgrass Basketmaking from Sherry Gould via a Grant recently). Other New Hampshire groups will be notified and asked for their support of the worthwhile Bill. The New Hampshire Native American Intertribal Council has supported this goal for at least ten years. The March 2007 meeting with Gov. Lynch (Nancy Millette-Doucet has often talked of this March 2007 Meeting) to try and create an order to form a commission on Native American affairs. I have copies of these minutes if anyone wants to see them."

Document 03: Page 16 of the Koasek Inc. Newsletter December 2009. "Recognition by the Native Nation Antaya. We are extremely proud of our new relationship with our cousins in the north from the citizens of the Native Nation Antaya at St. Georges de Beauce, Quebec. Chief Dominique Cote has many genealogical lines the same as many our......" (Eric Floyd of Pittsfield, Massachusetts did not send me Pages 17 onward of this particular Koasek Newsletter but suffice it to say that I have further documents on this particular Mr. Eric Floyd who was also created and promoted by Howard Franklin Knight Jr. as being a "Chief" Runningdeer, and Chief of the alleged Deer Clan; etc.)

Document 04 and 05: Some attachments that were sent to me by an Anonymous Email Sender. I have much more on this Koasek Incorporated "group" that I will be putting on the blog, both in email format and of genealogically sourced records. By the way, Elwin "Joe" Pero was not his real birth given name. It was Elwin Merle Pero. Again, this "group" is NOT a Band, NOR a Tribe. They, like all of them in Vermont and or New Hampshire are merely I-N-C-O-R-P-O-R-A-T-I-O-N-S. Nothing more than that.

Genealogically speaking, I will be putting on this Blog the documentations from Vermont Vital Records, etc. as time allows. Which I have ALOT of time......

Again, this alleged and reinvented "Abenaki Corn" is fake, fraudulant and manipulated. 300 years and allegedly NO Abenaki that is documented has retained, obtained or grown this alleged Abenaki corn (?) and now since 2006 it suddenly re-appears out of nowhere, with the likes of Nancy Millette-Doucet smiling for the camera's, Etc.

I do not buy into this Koasek Corn Hole-O of the Koasek "story".
