I have a relative who died in 1823 and is buried in the old cemetery on the island. Can you tell me if there is any way of knowing where his burial site is? His name was Robert Dickson, fur trader.

The FIrst residents of drummond Island were not white "settlers" It was already inhabited and utilized by the Anishinaabe. What of Chief Showan and his family?
