A Brief History of Curve Lake First Nation

SITE MAP

In 1882, a small band of Ojibway Indians stopped on a peninsula to rest after paddling for many days.  The Anishinawbe people liked the area; it was easily accessible to water which played an important part in trading.  The Anishinawbe decided to settle here and Mud Lake, as it was known then, officially became a reserve in 1889.  Mud Lake Band #35, became Curve Lake in 1964.  Today, with approximately 1,760 members, Curve Lake has flourished into one of the more successful First Nations in Canada.
