Does the list of Metis Families of Quebec include Marie Olivier Sylvestre MANITOUABE8ICH, who married Martin PRÉVOST PROVOST 1644?
Also, has anyone been able to ascertain if Catherine PILLARD, wife of Pierre CHARRON in 1665, was a "fille du roi" (and daughter of Pierre PILLAT & Marguerite MOULINET)? or was she Catherine 8enta, daughter of Du PLAT and Annengthon (http://www.geninfo.org/Pillard/)?

Anybody interested in their Metis heritage may inquire to see if their family name is included in Gail Morin's First Metis Families of Quebec. Have the complete set.
For those with French-Canadian ancestry: upcoming trip, info from:
Cheryl Granville Johns It is a closed group, but just ask to join. Go to Quebec Dream Trip in Facebook. The trip is scheduled for Sept. 12-18, 2016. We will leave from Mt. Clemens, Mich, go to Sarnia, spend the first night in Ottawa, two nights in Quebec City and three nights in Montreal. Cost will be somewhere around $850? The more people that go, the lower the cost.
