very interesting site, i really like it! please continue your fine work. i’m in search of my relatives who are said to be Mi’kmaq indians but im having a real tough time tracking the source of a reservation my relatives may have come from. I was also told there was another tribe in the bloodline but my aunt didnt know the name. she has since passed over and so had my hopes of finding a source. my french – canadien family is all mixed but i cant seem to find the right recipe to bake the “lineage cake”. I did see some of my family names listed in the ” Native to western names “, so this gives me renewed hope… Ill be back! thanks again for this cool site! 🙂

I’m looking for the name DeGrechie which, I am told by the St. John’s archivist, that they came from Jacquet River. What is the name of the band of MicMaq’s from that area?

Hello,
I have no information about this but I must say that to my knowledge the Mi’gmaw would not have had surnames at the time.

This site is great.
I am looking for my Husband’s paternal Grandmother. Born 1895, Marie Georgianna Primeau in Beauhoise (spelling not correct) area I believe. She married Joseph Arthur Tisseur and had family. Arthur died and Georgianna got remarried to her sister’s widow, Joseph Arthur Laurent Roy de Portelance. They were killed in the 1950’s by Georgianna’s son in law Henri Lalonde, (according to the family)
I have found nothing on her death, place of burial/resting.
Any ideas where I could search for more information, would be so much appreciated.
Thanks for this great site.
Regards,
L Tisseur

Thank you for the kind comments.
I’m sorry to hear of your sad family story.
A quick search at the Banq archives turns up an article about the opening of the trial. Are you able to read in French?

Good evening Lynn,
In case you have missed it I have sent an email to the email address you left.
I have so far located newspaper articles about the incident and some information about individuals whom I presume to be her family but would like some confirmation of what I’ve found so far before I proceed.
Thanks,
Evelyn
