John McNab
ID# 34107, b. 2 November 1755, d. about 1820
Much of this early McNab family information comes from the Hudson's Bay Company's records.
John's HBC biographical information can be found here
WARNING:
The Red River Ancestry website (https://www.redriverancestry.ca/) states:
"One has to question the accuracy and integrity of some of the HBC Archives information regarding the Elder John McNAB, his wife and his children. In some places the bio seems to be an admixture of facts that may be referring to John the Elder and/or his son John Jr. in the same bio. Nevertheless, many researchers accept the HBCA information as the gospel truth and use it as a basis for descendant genealogies which results in a great deal of confusion."
