    1. Q: I am trying to find the name of an Indian Reservation in Algoma District/County, on all the maps I have found it only listed as IR#8? My grandfather was born on the reservation and I would like to request his birth record.
      A:
      [From Ang] -- Don't know if you're still looking into this but I dug around a little online and there seems to be a reservation called Michipicoten First Nation PO Box 1, Site 8 RR 1, Wawa, Ontario P0S 1K0 705-856-1993 or 1-888-303-7723 I couldn't find what reserve # they were but you might be able to contact them. The website address is:
