IMAGE INFORMATION
Julie Christmas was born in Cape Breton, NS. She married Sam Pictou of Lequille, NS, about 1920. They had two children, William and Allen. William died in infancy. Julie Pictou died 1965 - 1966. The photo was taken in winter, at the Pictous' "old homestead", home of Sam's father, Chief Ben Pictou. One of 116 images collected for copying by Darlene Ricker between 1990 and 1997, as part of a project of the Bear River Mi'kmaq Reserve, Bear River, NS. Initiated by Chief Frank Meuse, the project, set up to preserve the reserve's history, resulted in a book by Darlene Ricker, 1997. The Nova Scotia Museum, Halifax, contributed the copywork for all photographs lent to the project, on the understanding that they would keep the copy negatives, but return the originals and provide the lenders with 8x10 prints of each item loaned for copying.
