A considerable tribe of Salishan stock formerly dwelling about Squamish River, British Columbia, now on small reservations under Fraser River agency. Their first regular contact with white men began with the establishment of the Hudson Bay trading posts in British Columbia. They were evangelized by Father Demers, afterwards by the Oblates, and the majority are Catholics.
