"\"A biography of Dr. John McLoughlin [1784-1857], who ruled for the Hudson's Bay Company the vast area limited only by the Rockies, the Pacific, Russian Alaska, and Spanish America. A man of integrity and great compassion, he was the first to bring civilization and culture to the 'Oregon county' (Pacific northwest)\"--Verso of t.p." . "Canada and the United States both claimed the Oregon country or Pacific Northwest during most of the years that Dr. John McLoughlin (1784-1857) was active there for the Hudson's Bay Company. The boundary dispute was settled in 1846, when the Buchanan-Packenham treaty (Oregon treaty) set the forty-ninth parallel as the official boundary. By this time, McLoughlin had already resigned as the representative of Hudson's Bay Company." . . . . . . . . . . . "The first chapter deals with the ancestry of Dr. John McLoughlin (1784-1857), and concludes with a pedigree chart showing this ancestry, as well as seven or eight generations of his descendants. Dr. John was born at Riviére-du-Loup in Québec province and, having been trained as a medical doctor, accepted employment with Hudson's Bay Company in the Canadian west. He apparently married a Chippewa Indian woman of Red River descent about 1808 (she died when a son was born in 1809). Subsequently he married Margaret (Wadin) McKay, a widow with three daughters whose husband had died in a shipwreck in 1811. John and Margaret had three more children of their own. Margaret's mother was either a full- or half-breed Indian. It was in 1824 that Dr. John was assigned to the Columbia district and moved south into the Oregon country." . . . . "History"@en .
