After reading the other response to this post, I think that I should have first
asked, who 'they' are. I had assumed that it was a general reference to Native
Americans at the time of European contact. I see now how I could have been wrong.
Please ignore my earlier post if it is off topic. I'll try and keep quiet until I
know more about what the topic is about.
