French-Canadian Descendants

According to the www.bms2000.org database (transcribed records)

At the parish of "St-Joseph, Montreal (Bordeaux)", Ile-de-Montreal, Quebec on the 18th of Sept. 1911 were married:

 

Georges Jean-Baptiste ROY, son of Ferdinand Roy and Georgiana Chabot, and

Marie-Reine Blanche LALANDE, daughter of Isaie Lalonde (deceased) and Zephirine Paiement.

 

I could not find the corresponding parish registers in Ancestry.com's listing of Drouin microfilms. I'm sure the church is listed, it's just not something I can find for some reason.

 

Best regards,

Thanks for the links - I will follow up on those.  In the meantime, you posted before I had a chance to get back in here - I did find the ships list for Olivier Charbonneau and his family.  They arrived on the Saint-Andre on 7 September 1659.

 

Now to check out the links you just posted!  thanks again!

Diane B.,

I do not have your couple in my LALONDE/LALANDE database.  You apparently have her baptism? Not sure what info you are looking for. Do you have the marriage date & place? Try looking in the Rivest & Loiselle marriage indexes if you don't, or if you can get access to the "blue" Drouin marriage index. Then use FamilySearch (free) or if you subscribe to Ancestry you can then look at the parish records to find marriage, baptisms and burials.

Patricia Q.,

Not that many passenger lists exist. You may want to read about the time period and what the passengers had to go through (also check out the bibliography for leads) in Gilles Proulx's BETWEEN FRANCE AND NEW FRANCE: LIFE ABOARD THE TALL SAILING SHIPS (BTW CHARBONNEAU was not mentioned in the index).

I also want to ask - is there a surviving ships list for the group that originally came over?  In particular, the one that Olivier Charbonneau and his family arrived on.  Thanks!

The zonecousinage.com site is great!  Just found a whole bunch of little tidbits that I was having problems locating before.  Thanks Jim!

I did forget to mention that I am descended also from the Secord/Sicard family.

Thank you. I didn't see your post. I will follow up on that.

Did you notice the two links I posted on the SINNETT family in the F-C surname sites in the Discussion group? One of them is a google book you can download. While the name is French the book deals with a branch that settled in England and spread from there. SINNETT is a "dit" name for LOISELLE for the F-C group.
