DEALING WITH EARLY EMIGRATION FROM FRANCE TO CANADA
Eel Fishing Nets on the Isle of Orleans
Welcome to the French to Canada website – the site dedicated to Canada’s French pioneers
Have you wondered
· Why your ancestors left France to come to Canada?
· Why French settlers established their farms in a continuous line along the St
Lawrence?
· Where the Acadians went after being expelled from their Maritime region
homelands?
· How your ancestors coped with the incredible physical and mental challenges
they faced?
These and other issues are considered in Lucille’s latest book, Quebec and Acadia’s French Pioneers: the Best of France to New France which covers the period from 1621 to 1763.
