Generally speaking French Trappers operated along the Mississippi and the forest areas of North America (now mostly in Canada). These northern lands were inhabited by the Ojibwa (Chippewa) tribes, and historical documents show that (again, as a general rule) these trappers got along well with these tribes. Many of these trappers became married to Native American women, and were accepted into their tribes.
