The Original CREE NEWS was edited and published by Mike Spathaky for the Cree Family History Society from 1990 to 1999, except for three issues (Cree News 12, 13 and 14) which were edited by Trevor Cree. Please note that all articles in Cree News are copyright © 1989-1999 Mike Spathaky and the respective authors of individual articles. All Rights Reserved.

Facsimile images of every issue of the original series may be viewed in the Cree News Originals sub-section in the menu on the left. An alphabetical List of Articles is available at the start of the sub-secton.

That original print series is now being digitised for easier indexing and searching. The digitised version is being published here in the Cree News Series 1 sub-section. Each digitised page has a link to its facsimile original page, and vice versa. An alphabetical List of Articles is available at the start of the sub-secton.

WARNING! Please be aware that much of what was written in Cree News was speculative; theories were advanced about the origins of our surname, hypotheses were suggested about our genealogies. Many of these were subsequently verified: some of the theories and hypotheses were shown to be incorrect. That's how knowledge advances.
