The Red River Settlement itself was centred at the confluence of the Red River and the Assiniboine River. The main focal point was at Upper Fort Garry, a Hudson's Bay Company post. This is now in downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba. The area is now a tourist destination called 'The Forks.' Settlers also spread along the banks of both rivers for several miles, on long and narrow farms of approximately 400 feet water frontage by a mile or so in depth. The population around 1870 was approximately 11,000. Most events in the Rebellion happened in the Settlement itself, but some events took place as far away as Pembina, south of the Settlement at the US border, and Portage la Prairie, about 50 miles to the West. It must also be said that some of the events took place hundreds of miles away, in Ottawa, the Capital of Canada. Google 'map' plus 'red river settlement' and see what comes up.
