Members of the Weymontaching Cree band were met near Clova in the Obedjiwan band area. They had travelled to this location by train in order to pick blueberries and meet with relatives. | Black, Meredith Jean, 1980, Algonquin Ethnobotany: An Interpretation of Aboriginal Adaptation in South Western Quebec, Ottawa.
