Bertha Landry- 1898
Bertha
and Joseph Landry received Scrip
Poverty forced them to sell land and
slip.
Whatever those with money paid, they
took.
-Living on road
allowance; in history books.
Seventeen children born to loving
parents
Natural remedies heal, it became
apparent.
Bertha kept her children healthy and
more-
Also midwifery; deliveries never
ignored.
The Catholic Church contributed to
their life
Daughters became wives; morals were
rife.
Sons worked- parental care without despair
-Provision for all; no
one ever without care.
Berthas children still wish for her
knowledge
Herbal cures over the pharmaceutical
college!
Her claim that Metis people are all
related-
Were now proving the truth in what she
stated.
