Biographical Notes
Moses Williams attended the Kitamaat Village Day School, and then the Coqualeetza Residential School until the age of fifteen. Army recruiters conscripted Haisla men into the Canadian Army and Moses went in 1945. He was sent by train to the Canadian Forces' training camp at Maple Creek, Saskatchewan. He never shipped out overseas and the war ended. Moses and his wife Kay married in 1950, shortly after she arrived to teach at Kitamaat. They moved to Terrace in 1964. Moses worked as a carpenter, brick layer and fisherman. His wife Kay taught at Northwest Community College.
