The Métis Corporation previously hosted a Web page displaying Alemann’s list of 115 women, presumably proven to be of Métis descent. While it is conceivable that some of those women may had had such Amerindian bloodline introduced via a male member of their bloodlines, it appeared that most (or at least those mentioned in my genealogy pages) referenced a matriarchal descent. Following the consistent non-Amerindian mtDNA haplogroup testing results which disproved such Native American heritage for a number of the women on Alemann’s list, the page has been allowed by the Métis Corporation du  Québec et de l’Est de Canada to lapse, along with the organization’s previous presence\ link on pages such as Metis Councils (Canada): http://fotw.fivestarflags.com/ca_omtis.html.
