SEE DICK about French-Canadian Research
DearREADERS,
French-Canadian research is close to the top of my list of genealogical research
with which I have no experience. But Dick Eastman is 50% French-Canadian, so I
take him at his word in particular on that subject. I was thrilled to read his
weekly newsletter and make note of a detailed report on this topic. For
instance, I didn't know that:
- "French-Canadian research is greatly
facilitated by the excellent Catholic church records that were kept." I
always thought it was hard to do Canadian research.
- The library of the American-Canadian
Genealogical Society in Manchester, New Hampshire has 1.5 terabytes of records
that were microfilmed by the Institut Généalogique Drouin.
If you have French-Canadian ancestry, you simply
must view the entire article:

Happy family tree climbing!
