My Question is:Hello everyone, I do know that Etienne Bergeron dit Damboise settled in the Gaspe area, we are looking for any descendants of his, or of Barthelemy Bergeron dit Damboise and Genevieve Serreau dit ST Aubin, and any descendants of the children of Gabriel Godin dit Bellefontaine who married the children of Barthelemy Bergeron dit damboise. We are holding a Bergeron-Damboise Reunion in Fredericton New Brunswick July of 2009. Here is a write up about it. T his story begins in the last decade of the 17th century. When in 1692 Governor Villebon granted Point Saint Anne (all of the lower part of today’s Fredericton) to Gabriel Godin. (The census of 1693 confirms this fact for us) Gabriel Godin and his wife, Andree-Angelique JEANNES settled the village of Point Saint Anne. During the following years the village prospered and grew. Then in February 1759 a small force of British Troupes (16 men) led by a Lt Moses Hazen raided and destroyed the Acadian village of Pointe Sainte Anne, as a consequence of this raid some innocent civilians were killed. These civilians were hastily buried in the village cemetery. This cemetery has since been mistakenly identified as an Indian Cemetery when in reality it is an Acadian Cemetery. Now, we fast forward to 1933 when the cemetery was once again disturbed! This time by a Dr. Wintemberg who came to Point Saint Anne with the expectations of finding pre-historic (First Nation) remains and was surprised to find, buried closely together, and in one case two in one grave, not Indians, but Europeans. In all, seven skeletons were examined. (Two of these remains were those of Anastasie Godin and Madeleine Guilbaut) In no case was there any evidence of Indian (First Nation) at the site. The remains of the two women were removed to Ottawa where they remain today. As Acadian’s and descendants of Anstasie’s family our desire is to have her (their) remains returned to her (their) rightful resting place, Pointe Saint Anne. And the cemetery there properly identified and declared as a National Historical Site. The Bergeron-Damboise families are planning, in conjunction with The Society of History of the River Saint Jean (SHRSJ) a commemoration of the 250 year anniversary of the destruction of the village. We are calling for all Acadians to rally with us in Fredericton on the weekend of the 18th/19th of July (Saturday and Sunday) 2009. This calling includes all Acadians who are descended from the Godin, Saindon, Pare, Bergeron, St Aubin Families as well as any other family group. Please contact Aline Cormier (alicor@nb.sympatico.ca) or Lawrence Bergeron (larrybergeron@earthlink.net) for further details.

My Question is:How do I go about tracing the MicMac heritage of where it comes into the French lineage of my family tree? My understanding is that on my father's side of the family( my grandmother lineage)is that a MicMac great-great-? ( don't know how many greats back) grandmother married a Frenchman ( last name Poitras). She was stripped of her Native name and rights. My understanding is that her father was a MicMac medicine man. I have traced the French side of the family back to France 1589 and cannot figure out where the MicMac heritage comes into the Poitras family tree. My understanding is the Poitras had settled in the Gaspe Bay area.

Issue: 2-4 died young (Ellen, William Jr and ?), Mary Ann, John Joseph, Rose A. and Catherine Maude survived. These 4 children were moved to the Grand Rapids, Michigan area after their mother died in Toronto in 1901. William's brother, Thomas McKENZIE b. c1857 Gaspe md Mary SHEA 20 Jul 1892 in St. Michael's, Toronto. These are the sons of NEIL McKENZIE b. c1816? Scotland and ELLEN HOLLAND of Douglastown, Gaspe. Neil McKENZIE md 1st Mary McKENNA, issue: Patrick and Ellen. Neil md 2nd Ellen Holland, issue: Mary, Thomas, William (and possibly Amelia?, Alexander?). Also, found a brief clip from Deal, 7 Apr 1825: The MARY sailed from St. incents, on the 4th October last, and after reaching Magdeleine river about 100 miles on this side of Gaspe, compelled by ice and stress of weather to put back to Gaspe on the 17th November where she wintered and whence she sailed on the 6th instant. Mr. McKenzie, a passenger, was drowned about the 22nd November while crossing the ice in the basin after sunset. His body was not found. Does anyone have any info on this Mr. McKenzie? The McKenzie's I'm looking for were in Gaspe South. Drowning would have been 22 Nov 1824. This wasn't Neil, possibly a brother? father? Any and all info/ideas welcome. Thank you! Merci! P.S.

E-mail:onedea@optusnet.com.au
My Question is:I am interested in any information on the origins and early history of the “Enright” name on the Gaspe Coast. Specifically, Enrights already on the Coast that might have influenced or facilitated the migration of Thomas Enright and his wife Margaret (Peggy) Myers/Mayers/Moir/Morey to Port Daniel around 1818/1820. My interest stems from the fact that my GGG grandfather James Dea also migrated from Ireland to Port Daniel about this time. He was married to Ann (Nancy) Enright. Although I have never been able to prove a relationship between James and Nancy, there is every possibility they were siblings. There is evidence that both the Dea and Enright families came from Bruff Parish, County Limerick, Ireland, but this also still requires firm confirmation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

W. Lepage with slightly different birth dates. The wives names are different but both girls are the same with slightly different birth dates. Does anyone know the parents of the E. W. Lepage's listed and if and how they were related? 2) Can someone in the area check for the death date for Effie Lepage and her young daughter ( I don't have the name or birth date for the girl) I beleive that they are buried in the church yard in Metis with Effie's father Malcom McGugan. 3) I am also trying to find the actual birth date for Malcom's wife Catherine and where she was born. 4) My grandfather Percy Gilbert Nichols met his wife (Effie) up in Metis when he was hired as a private police officer for the Petite Metis area. I would like to know if there is any information regarding him in any archival local papers. I realize that it is a long list but any info would be a great help. Thanks Gail

Their names were "JOSEPH" NORBERT LECLERC & "ELISE" BABIN. On the 1911 Quebec Census they are listed on it as living in NEW CARLISLE WEST QUEBEC. JOSEPH'S occupation is listed as working for the railway. That is the last bit of fact finding information I had to go on. Both of my Grandparents died in 1918 from the Spanish Influenza leaving behind 11 children. I know JOSEPH LECLERC was born in MARIA, Quebec on July 27, 1862, his parents were JOSEPH LECLERC & PHEBEE NOMAND.

My Question is:Bonjour! Je suis ici aujourd'hui pour essayer d'aider ma mère à retrouver sa famille biologique. Ma mère est née à l'hotel dieu de Gaspé le 8 juillet 1960. Elle fut adoptée quelque jours plus tard. Nous essayons de faire des recherches, mais étant donné que les 2 parents "serait" décédés, nous avons pas beaucoup d'informations. Elle aurait des frères (soeurs?) et ils porterais le nom de famille PATTERSON. Concernant les parents, dans une lettre reçue en juin 1987, son père serait décédé depuis plusieurs années (statut indiqué: veuf). Il occupait un emploi dans le domaine des transports. Pour la mère, une lettre reçue en 1994 suppose qu'elle serait décédée il y a un an (donc 92 ou 93). Elle est décédée à TORONTO (statut sur la lettre: veuve). Ils auraient habité à Gaspé pour aller vivre en Ontario. Je sais que j'ai pas beaucoup d'informations, mais le centre jeunesse ne peu dire plus. Si quelqu'un aurait des informations, ce serait très apprécié. J'aimerais réaliser un rêve de ma mère, de savoir ses origines, ses antécédants médicaux et bien sur, connaitre ses frères/soeurs si possible bien sur! Un gros merci !

Most of the Loyalists who eventually came to the Gaspe coast made their escape along the Lake Champlain - Richelieu waterway. On their arrival they were housed in refugee camps at St. Johns, Montreal, Sorel,Yamachiche and Coteau du Lac. By the conclusion of the war there were nearly 5,000 people in the scattered camps 1781-1783 The men were organized into regiments; Butler's Rangers, Burgoyne's provincials and the King's Loyal Americans to name a few. They were responsible for the defence of Quebec and campaigned mostly in the state of New York. With the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown in October of 1781, the fighting for these men came to an end. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Paris in Sept.of 1783. The treaty gave official recognition to the United States as an independent nation. 1784 Late fall of 1784 Robert Simpson comes to Douglastown with Ohara from New Carlisle 1784 Robert Simpson and John Rose could be part of 435 settlers arriving in Douglastown area.
