  • In 1801, Alexander Henry the younger, also of the North West Company, built a post on the north bank across from Chaboillez's post. He remained in charge until 1808. It was absorbed by the Hudson's Bay Company in 1821.[citation needed]
  • By 1793, the Hudson's Bay Company had a small post (seemingly called Fort Skene[3]) on the east side on the Red River. It was rebuilt in 1801. By 1805, most of the local beaver had been exterminated. Pembina was the traditional rendezvous for the Métis buffalo hunt.[4] It was also a center for illicit trade with the United States. The HBC post operated until at least 1870, even though it was known to be south of the border.[citation needed]
  • In 1812, Selkirk settlers from the Red River Colony built Fort Daer on the Chaboillez site.[2]
