French & Native North American Marriages, 1600-1800

After finding my four Huron lines who came from Ontario, Canada and took refuge in Quebec with the help of the Jesuit Priests around 1640, I was compelled to record these records to help others find their Native American connections. Persecuted by the Iroquois, the main tribe of their Indian Nation, the Huron's were reduced from around 20,000 to 2,000 in population, nearly wiped out. Much of these native Americans along with other tribes of the Iroquois nation, and all the Acadian coastal tribes married into the French families that settled all these areas including the farther west territories.

Though not a perfect and complete collection, there are many families listed here that now have millions of descendants today. This book is in an easy index formation with all the main surnames in alphabetical order, but by listing both names you will have to check possibly in two places to assure that you find all the records. There are 161 pages with over 1000 listings, mostly marriages, others are Baptisms. Published by Willow Bend/Heritage Books, Inc. of Maryland, Nov. 2004. Price $25 plus $4 S/H plus $1.50 for each additional item. ISBN #0788425951 We accept PayPal, check or money orders (We also accept Canadian: Please add $1.00 for S/H).

Note: It has been found that there are some errors from early documentation and reference materials (As from Jette, Arseneault or Tanguay). As these errors are found they will be posted at this site (Below).
