Are you related to one of the founding families of New France (Québec’s version of “Mayflower” families)?
Can you trace your roots to one of the 800 “Filles du Roi” sent to New France by Louis XIV to help populate the colony?
Did your ancestors settle the Acadian region of eastern Canada?
If you are of French-Canadian descent, the answer is most likely “yes” for at least one if not all of these questions!

Dear Franco-Americans, I am proud of you! Being French Canadians for 13 generations, and having family in the USA (California), they came to Montreal last summer, and are proud to have French roots.

The largest population of Acadians today is in New Brunswick, north east, north west and south east. We are one third of the population of NB. And there are one million Québecers of Acadian descent. And there are Acadians in Maine USA

Just found this a year later. I have found 2 filles a Marier so far-the Duteau sisters, also spelled Duteault. Also related to Daniel LeBlanc and Francoise Gaudet-also spelled Gaudette. Anyways, a very nice presentation.

Je suis aussi un Plouffe et une partie de ma famille est partie vivre aux USA dans les années durant lesquelles les opportunités économiques étaient plus rares, soit au 19e siècle et dans la première partie du 20 siècle. Tous les Plouffe du monde ont le même ancêtre commun: Jean Blouf, né à Paris et qui a émigré en Nouvelle-France sous le régime de l'Intendant Talon dans les années 1660. Son père s'appelait comme moi: Antoine Plouffe.

My grandmother is from the Langlois family. Very interesting presentation. Her grandfather ended up in Rhode Island. They joined other French Canadians in North Dakota. I would have loved to have known all of this, when I was young. Would have visited these areas.

The funny thing about the Langlois / L'Anglois / Langlais / L'Anglais family is that they were an English family that emigrated to northern France (probably Normandie) and later they emigrated to Canada. It was a "dit name" that changed into a last name. "L'Anglois" is an old form of "L'Anglais" which means "The English."

Also, if your last name really is "Cote" it is likely to be French-Canadian (Côté).

It was when you review our ancestry. The accents have not been used since coming to the US. @@hugobourgon198

Bonjour les cousins de Salem! Tous mes 400 ancêtres sont venus de France entre 1600 e 1684. J'habite au Québec. Je parle un peu anglais.

Yes, it seems interesting that the bulk of immigration to Quebec was during this time frame.

Hi. I’ve been trying to find my fathers relatives and his history. His name was Walter Plouffe. Any relation?

@eddie-xi6ls Год назад

Should be real easy to trace since most French Canadians we're baptized and the Church kept excellemt records. As a matter of fact there was a radio and TV program years ago that was very popular entitled "La Famille Plouffe" (The Plouffe Family).

My mother was French Canadian and my DNA also shows no Indian ancestry. Family in Quebec goes back to 1673.

Hello! This was a wonderful presentation and very helpful. For Ms. Sandy I have information on the Demers family that I would be happy to share with you if you are interested :) Marie Demers (1804-1856) from Saint-Joseph-de-Chambly, Quebec, Canada is my 4x Great-Grandmother.

French-Canadians have amongst the best birth and death records in the world because of the excessive control the Catholic church had on them back in the days.
