- About Me:
- I am 62 years of age, a Woodsman and a writer. I enjoy historical trekking. My period of interest is 1680-1760. I live with my family in Wychwood Forest, New England, NSW, Australia. I am godfather to an Ojibwe man, Running Deer, who is like a son to me, and blood Brother to his Father and Uncle. Certain group members gave me the honorary title of Captain of scouts, for the work I have done within the group, which I am very pleased to have. My blood brothers gave me the name of Le Loup, though I am an English Woodsman. I am also the group's primitive skills instructor.

Trying To Explain Who We Are And What We Do!
I met a chap and his lovely wife today to talk about what we do in our group, and I have the feeling that once again I failed to get across what it is we actually do. I will attach a video here, just photos of the fort and the people in it but you have to understand that although this fort is an important part of New World history, it is also the playground of 18th Century Living Historians.
And that is what we are,… Continue
