At the top of the page on the right hand side it says search Genealogy Wise, this will bring up ALL groups where a surname is mentioned. However attachments like the one I have in the Discussion forum  (ie. French-Canadian surnames) will not appear in the search. None of the groups have separate search engines that I know of. Jim.

Is there a way of searching through all these messages for a particular family name without having to read each one of them to find it?

Carol is also the author of the comprehensive book, MICHIGAN GENEALOGY, another of our publications. Also in the “Genealogy at a Glance series” are titles for France and French Canada.

Hi: I'm new here.  My ancestors are Bedard & Lavallee.  I have traced both my lines back to France.  I am waiting for the 1940's census to find some more recent relations which is much harder,  My g grandparents were Francois X Bedard & Domithilde Lavallee.

Hello--or should I say Bon jour!  My maiden name is Pleau & am descended from the Pleau's of Trois-Rivieres in Quebec.

I quickly viewed Ancestry and there are records for a Frederick E. Merriman born 1861 or 1862.  Janet--do we know if we are looking in Quebec or another province?  Do you have any other information--more than his name or birth date?

Good luck in your search
