Archibald Belaney duped many people by stating he was the son of a Scot and had an Apache mother. In reality he was born in Hastings, England and upon coming to Canada he fabricated his identity as a First Nations man and came to be known as Grey Owl. Very interesting man who served in the CEF as a marksman and later became devoted to conservation due to influence from his latter Iroquois wife.
