John West and His Red River Mission (Dodo Press)


Overview

John West (1778-1845) was an Episcopalian minister, and chaplain for the Hudson's Bay Company at Fort Garry (Winnipeg) on Red River. Born in Farnham, Surrey, he was ordained a priest of the Church of England by the Bishop of London in 1804. After spending fifteen years in various curacies in England he was appointed chaplain to the Hudson's Bay Company in 1819 and left for Red River in 1820. He missioned amongst the Native Indians and began a day school. He went home in 1823, supposedly temporarily, but he never returned. He published his journal in 1824. In 1825-26 he visited eastern Canada on behalf of the New England Company.
