Basket Maker Bios

Mrs. Louis

life dates unknown

Unfortunately, we know little about the basket maker Mrs. Louis. Information from the donor of these baskets originally given to the Native Sons in 1946, Mrs. J.L. Kingswood, indicated that the three baskets were made by “Mrs. Louis of the North Shore Indians.” This means that Mrs. Louis was, therefore, likely a member of the Squamish Nation.  See Skxuumish Uxwumixw - Network - http://www.squamish.net/

The Langley Centennial Museum would appreciate any leads on the identity of Mrs. Louis of the North Shore Indians.
