Note: Excerpt: " In the early 1940s few men in the "lower" United States had even seen a sleddog. In the search for experienced m en the arm y turn ed to people who had been involved with Admiral Richard Byrd's Antarctic expeditions. One was a kennel in New Ham pshire owned by Mr. and Mrs. Seeley — famous in sled dog circles — had had a high school boy working for them in the 1930s, named Dave Arm strong. Armstrong who w as already in the service, transferred to Rimini. A couple of people who became instrumental to the success of C amp Rimini were Eddie Barbeau and Carl Wheeler. Barbeau w as of French-Canadian and Ojibway descent, and ran a trapline and patrolled for the government in the mostly roadless, lake filled northern Minnesota border country, where dog teams and snow shoes were the only means of travel in the winter. He and Wheeler brought their own experienced dog teams with them to Montana (Shore, 1977). ^[2]

Historical Article

Remembering Barbeau

By MARTIN J. KIDSTON - IR Features Writer - 12/18/05 Dec 18, 2005 0

Artful teepees, sled dogs and traditional American Indian ceremonies were once commonplace at Eddie Barbeau’s home. The beloved elder from the Ojibway tribe had climbed to relative fame in the Helena area by unifying the city’s diverse Indian population — defending its culture and carrying its pipe.

But now, 11 years after Barbeau’s passing, there’s a hole in the ground where his Custer Avenue home once sat. His former residence, built in 1935, now sits on blocks. The property itself is surrounded by the Home Depot and a planned retail center, not far from the corner of what’s to become a major Helena interchange.

The land now belongs to Montana Opportunities, LLC. The Butte-based company, which didn’t return repeated phone calls last week, is looking to build a Town Pump gas station and casino on the site that once belonged to Barbeau.

While no single tribe calls Helena home, members of the city’s Indian population are loath to see their memories of Barbeau give way to development, at least without some sort of memorial.

Darren Melton, who replaced Francis Belgarde as the director of the Helena Indian Alliance in 2001, said he first met Barbeau in 1988. Melton credits the elder for changing his life and would like to see him memorialized, if not on the property then elsewhere in town.

Melton lived with Barbeau at his home for six years. During that time, he apprenticed with the elder as an artist and witnessed many ceremonies.

“I told him I’d work around his yard if he taught me Indian arts and crafts,” Melton said. “He used a lot of different styles — Cheyenne, Blackfeet, Lakota. He preserved the Indian culture for all of us and kept it alive.”

Melton remembered Barbeau as an accomplished man who sat on the board of the Montana United Urban Indian Alliance and organized Helena’s own Indian Alliance in 1969.

Barbeau also trained sled dogs at Camp Rimini and, during World War II, served in Newfoundland to rescue downed American pilots. Later in life he became an accomplished artist, a pipe holder and a spiritual leader for the area’s Indian people.

“I have a personal and direct connection to that land,” Melton said of the Custer property. “That’s where I had my naming ceremony. That’s where Barbeau gave me my name, Bear Shield.”

Daniel Pocha, a Helena Indian Alliance board member, said he too would like to see Barbeau memorialized. It makes him sad, he said, to see his home up on blocks and the property slated for development.

“He helped expand the culture and helped people identify with their Native customs,” Pocha said. “He kept a medicine lodge up at his property. His paintings were on the lodge and it was nationally recognized with its award-winning artwork.”

Pocha said that Barbeau also tended an arbor on the property and trained his older brother in the late 1980s on how to make native bead work and dewclaw baskets.

Pocha admitted that the renewed interest in Barbeau’s legacy and his contribution to the community were rekindled when his former home was removed from its foundation and prepared for trucking to a new location.

The day-to-day business demanded by the medical side of the Indian Alliance prevents its board from getting involved in Indian cultural issues, Pocha said. That wasn’t the case, he added, when Barbeau was alive.

“In the old days, we were more of an advocacy for the Native people,” he said. “It was written into our bylaws. It was through the efforts of the Indian Alliance and Barbeau that the city realized it had to offer jobs to Natives other than running behind garbage trucks.”

Barbeau was born on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota in 1908. He grew up with his grandparents, however, on the White Earth Reservation in Minnesota where he spent his time raising and racing sled dogs.

“He had smoked since he was 7 years old,” Melton said. “He once drove his sled 150 miles to get tobacco in Minnesota.”

Melton said Barbeau talked about growth in the valley up until his death. Pocha added that he went head to head with local government when it built a sewage treatment plant on the lot behind his home.

“For me, there’s a lot of history in his land there that’s being covered up, mainly for utilitarian purposes,” Melton said. “That whole area has changed over the last 10 years. Something that remembers him on that site would be appropriate.”

Barbeau’s contribution to the Helena community went beyond the Indian population. In 1993, he was honored as grand marshal during the Last Chance Stampede and Fair. Barbeau, then 85, was seen as a bridge between the city’s white and Indian peoples.

Both Melton and Pocha hope to see interest grow in memorializing Barbeau.

Dog Trainer and Kennel Owner

" GRAVELED OUTDOOR RUNWAYS at Avalanche kennels open into the largest kennel building, and we used chiefly for the Labrador*, which are being training for hunting and field trials.

With the extensive Improvements planned by Eddie and Kay Barbeau the second floor of the kennel building will be used for obedience training and basic schooling for derby dogs. At present there are 'IS Labrador! receiving training at~Avalanche. They are owned by Helena resident* and are admitted for school" Ing after they reach the age of nine months.

THE IMMACULATE DISPENSARY BUILDING houses canine guests of a variety of .description* and stae*. Tha aatmal* are privileged to~spend a portion of each day In the great outdoors, but remain In the kennel building during the night and rar days. An affectionate lot* the pooches vie for .attention, when Barbeau or a visitor enter* the kennel bnUdlaf.The small 1 Ing also includes a full-sized tub and grooming table. The third-story "rooms" In the dispensary are reserved lor eat* Barbeaa reports they are treated with respect by the canines. ._

and Kay and Eddie Barbeau Open Modern New Plant Well Equipped to Care for Pets ·V i By Viola Lbtdley It may be a dog's life, but It Isn't bad. J The poodles and pups at Ata- lache kennels--be they weekend guests or more permanent residents^-are staying at one of Montana's better kennels.

Located Just' seven-tenths .mile east of St. Joseph's orphanage, the kennels, owned and operated by Kay and Eddie Barbeau, provide spacious rumtoys, heated kennels, a bountiful board and outdoor sports for dogs of this area. Tne Barbeaus have been at the new location just three weeks and future improvements are planned, but present facilities now accomo- dat« some 50 animals brought for grooming, obedience or field training or for board and room. There are 18 tiled "rooms" In the small kennel building and across the dispensary there Is a large bath tub and grooming table for dogs who visit Avalanche for a general renovation--that Is, bath, pedicure, trim, and comb and clip job.

Among the week's more prominent guests are "Muggs" Bourquin, a 15-year-old toy Bull, who occupies one of the third-story rooms; "Poppy" Wilkes, a diminutive ipeclman of cocker and Labrador ancestry; "Jet" Nichols; and the friendly red cocker spaniel, Bruce" '.Marbnt, who is well- known In the'Fort.Harrison community. Also stopping last week at Ave- lanche w a s "Duke," a playful Great'Dane'puppy of 15 months, who is rather anti-social, a lover of the great outdoors. He. tips the scales at 200 pounds. Duke's master is C. W. Swearlnger of Monarch and Duke is at Avelanche for obedience training, or practice In the "do's and don'ts" outlined by a canine Emily Post. Another guest at the kennels, Poppy" Wilkes who devotes a good deal of time nd excess energy to the outdoors i'"Clancy," an Irish setter, who · vacationing, while his master aul Wallace is in the hospital. Chow, prepared in the larger kennel building, is served either wo or three times a day, depend- ng on the canine and his eating habits. The menu usually includes meat, a commercial meal, vegetables and cod liver oil.

The large gravel runways give ample opportunity for guests to get some outside exercise, but they are quartered in the heated kennel buildings on nippy, days and at night. Smaller rooms in the dispensary building are usually reserved for cats, Barbeau says. Strangely enough, he explains, the dogs have no objection to staying in the same hostelry as kitties and dispositions remain better than human. "Most animals we receive are good uatured," the kennel-owner reports; there have been only one or two dogs, who wouldn't be friendly after they have become used to their new surroundings." Two veterinarians, Dr. A. M. Jasmin and Dr. E. M. Joneschild, are on call from the kennels at all times.

"We've' never had a case of distemper," Barbeau can rightfully boast. Dogs are accepted at any age at Avalanche kennels and upon admission, their histories are recorded for future reference. Barbeau finds that most dog-owners are -.truly concerned over their pets and their welfare and at Ave- lanche kennels they get the extra- attention* that make a kennel classy. ', Additional Kennel News on Pago 15 "BRUCE" MARBCT will be ready for any occasion, when fiddle Barbeaa completes the grooming Job In progress. A complete renovation Includes bath, pedicure, clip, trim and comb. Barbeau, who has spent his entire life working with dogs, knows the personality and pet peeves of each of his charges. "Bruce" is a former resident of Fort Harrison and is stopping at Avalanche kennels, while the master, Dr. William M. Marbut, Is on active duty with the army. Among "Bruce's" room- nates Is "Poppy" Wilkes, who Is one of the most popular guests 'at Avalanche. When Poppy registered at the kennels his history was filed, revealing a' typically-American heritage. He is a diminutive specimen of Cocker Spaniel and Labrador and wears his black coat with a white vest.

Nationally Known for Work With Canines, Eddie Barbeau Is "Dog's Best Friend" Nationally-known for his work with canines, Eddie Barbeau is a dog's best friend. . His love for animals was evident even in his youth and by the time he was 14, Eddie Barbeau was president' of "the Minneapolis Tribune Do'g club. Two'year* later he was winning dbg-sled'races and he lias never yet lost a race. Eddie thinks a., portion of his ability to work ;with dogs was inherited. "His grandfather was a sled-man for t h e "Hudson Bay company In Canada. · · No- newcomers to,· the kennel business, .Mr. and .Mrs.: Barbeau operated a large kennel, at Hackensack, .Minn., prior to the .last war. At that time they specialized n raising Samoyeds, a Siberian sled-dog. When Eddie entered the service in the'last war, -17 of his dogs went with him.- Stationed at nearby Rimini and training "recruits in the K-9 corps, Barbeau and his dogs saw a lot of-service. Barbeau was injured while serving in Newfoundland and returned to the states, -bnt many of 'his own -dogs and many, more that he trained continued to serve in Labrador and eventually In the Battle of the Bulge, .flying the Atlantic twice. Five of the Barbeau K-9 veterans were honorably discharge* and returned to him at the end of the war, but only one of them is now living in Montana. A Huskey, he Is residing at-Wolf Creek One of Barbeau's favorite dogi the famed "Kenya," was "put to sleep" last year and although he did not see action In Germany, many of his sons and daughters were In the American lines; ~ Returning to Helena In thorfall of 19-45. the obvious need for kennels and an animal boarding house became evident to the Barbeau's and they established, kennels at 1919 Townsend, .where, they remained until three weeks ago. The move to the Helena valley increasef facilities. There are 13% acres for training area and there is easy access to Stanchfield take, which they lease for training purposes. The Barbeaus have plans for extensive Improvements ; at. the kennels and at .present theyihave a small-crew of men working on the building and grounds, but the actual handling of the animals · 1* assumed by- them. · .\ Mrs. Barbeau Is nationally* known In .'her., own right for sled racing and works with-her husband, when she Is not In the attractive ranch-house. "Eddie has always loved dogs and he ha* always made his living with them; he's never · had to do anything else," Mrs. Barbeau says. Both, Eddie and .Kay Barbean have raced and showed their dogs In all parts of the nation--New York, Si Louis,- Cincinnati, Minneapolis; Chicago^--but -both of them agreed, when It came to postwar plans, that they wanted-to be near Helena. "We like It here," they say." ^[5]

Musher : Article Excerpt

Eddie Barbeau (Musher) (Standing)

" These photos from 1917 and the golden era of mushing in the 1920s and 30s are from a collection that belonged to Eddie Barbeau, a musher who was a contemporary and the same generation as men like Roland Lombard, Charles Belford, George Esslinger, Norman Vaughan, Ed Moody, Dick Moulton, Stuart Mace, Lou Wheeler, Mike West; a generation younger than Goyne and Seppala who raced the Nome Sweepstakes in the teens then spread the Alaskan style of dog mushing and racing to New England, Canada and the lower 48.

The photos were given to my neighbor, Arleigh Jorgenson, when he met Barbeau at one of the early Race to the Sky events in Montana. Barbeau was living in the Helena area then." ^[6]
