He is credited with halting the Metis uprising in the Northwest. His father was a Napoleonic soldier and his was an Ojibway Indian from the Collingwood area of Ontario. The name Erasmus was originally a Dutch name, Rasmus. "And as far as anyone was able to determine this Napoleonic soldier came out to Canada along with many others after 1816 when the Napoleonic Wars were over. The Government of England and parts of
Europe could not pay their soldiers so they paid them off by land and they gave the soldiers and officers grants of land in North America in due [lieu] of payment and guarantee[d] to keep them on certain rations seed products and tools until they became established ... They moved around because when they'd came out here, Peter himself, I'm not sure which company he joined, but I know he later worked with the Hudson Bay Company. As a matter a [of] fact, if you go to Fort Edmonton, there's a place called the interpreter's house. That was his home, that was the old Erasmus' home. From there, I don't know how many children he had but moving around I dare say there were a number." "Old Peter lived to be about 90 some years old."

And yet, people asked her to make a tent so big, a tent 12' by 14' or something like that, she'll tell them how much canvas it needed and she made it."
