  1. St. Hyacinthe-Donnacona Navy

    St. Hyacinthe Donnacona Navy was a Canadian football team during World War II . It appeared in Grey Cup in 1944 season and won the cup that year. So obscure was his Navy Combines squad that a quarter of a century passed by before league officials and Grey Cup brass decided that the Combines should get recognition for their feat during the war years when regular teams weren t used. McFall and the Combines beat the Hamilton Flying Wildcats 7 6 before a sparse crowd of 3,871 at Hamilton s Civic Stadium, marking the last year that a service club won the Grey Cup. The Combines started out as a pick up crew, a bunch of sailors who liked to mess around on the football field. Playing coach Glen Brown moulded four seniors himself included , a number of intermediates and a group of high schoolers such as McFall into a reputable defensive unit with many players travelling 40 miles to attend team practices. The team was a combination of two HMCS units St. Hyacinthe, located 40 miles from Montreal and Donnaconna based in downtown Montreal. Before playing in the Grey Cup game, the Combines got ready by playing games against other Quebec teams, including McGill. small ref http www.insidehalton.com community oakvillebeaver article 1047263 Former Navy vet was one of youngest to win Grey Cup title Mickey McFall by Danny Gallagher, the Oakville Beaver, July 22, 2011 ref Grey Cup Championship roster bold denotes the player played in the Grey Cup game Charlie Ellis , Wally Charron , Curly Hiltz , Ginger O Brien, Bucko McLeod , Glen Brown Coach , Roy Kirbyson , John Taylor Canadian football John Taylor , John Crncich , Steve Levantis , Jack Wedley , Al Hurley , Wally Patch , Malcolm Baker , Hal Chard, Tom Bainbridge , Ian Barclay , Sam Abbott , Whitey Leonard , Dick Swarbrick , Pat Santucci , Dutch Davey , Mickey McFall , Dave Kotavitch , Al Symms, Jim Spicer, Des Campbell, L.

    Agouhanna was the St. Lawrence Iroquoian term for tribal chief chief or leader. Name Misinterpretation The word has been mistakenly interpreted as being the name of the chief of Hochelaga , on the site of present day Montreal .

  1. Kingdom of Saguenay

    The name Kingdom of Saguenay lang fr Royaume du Saguenay supposedly has its origin in an Iroquoian legend, as recorded by the France French during French colonisation in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. According to the Iroquoian Indians, there was a kingdom to the north, of blond men rich with gold and furs , in a place they called Saguenay. Jacques Cartier first described finding the Saguenay River on his second voyage in 1536 he had with him Chief Donnacona s sons who told him it was the way to the Kingdom of Saguenay. While imprisoned in France in the 1530s, Donnacona himself also told stories about it, claiming it had great mines of silver and gold. French explorer s in Canada looked for this kingdom in vain. Today, it is typically understood to be entirely mythical, a European misunderstanding or made up , or an Iroquoian attempt to trick or confuse the French. However, some people have speculated it was an ancient, pre Columbian Europe an settlement to which the Iroquoian oral tradition referred, such as the Norsemen Norse settlement at L Anse aux Meadows . ref cite journal last King first Joseph Edward authorlink year 1950 title The Glorious Kingdom of Saguenay journal Canadian Historical Review volume 31 issue 4 pages publisher University of Toronto Press location issn 0008 3755 oclc url http utpjournals.metapress.com content lx5572245436122q format PDF accessdate ref The name Saguenay survived in many modern placenames.
