I know this interview was done in 2001 I am a 1st cousin of Bertha. Is there anyway this can be translated into English. There are many relatives who do not understnd French. I was brought up in in a home that was only English was spoken as my dad came from Sweden. Any help would be appreciated. I live in Dover Foxcroft and there are several relatives here.

I am a direct descendant of ANTOINE BELIVEAU and MARIE ANDREE GUYON (Guion). My mother is Jeanne Beliveau.

I have searched the inter-net long and hard to find more interesting things of my BELIVEAU family. I came across a web site where there was a printed speech of some one who gave an oral lecture of “The life and times of a Beliveau”…..I believe it was the grandson? of Antoine. It was extemely interesting. I tried to print it, but it was copy righted……maybe you can help me find the author or maybe there is a book of this ‘story’. Thank YOU, Karen Farrell-Howard

All my ancestors on my mother’s side came from Canada. Would you please send me information on obtaining your publication – in English. Thank you.

loved this guy – went to his retreat @ 1987 in Charlotte, N.C. – I’ll never forget it, or him.

Bonjour,
J’essaie d’entrer en contact par courriel avec Géraldine Chassé concernant les photos
du cimetière de St-Hilaire, comté de Mawaska.
Je suis native de St-Hilaire et je recherche une photo de la pierre tombale noire avec
la «Croix de Victoria» gravée en haut à gauche de la pierre noire.
Récemment la pierre fut changée pour une pierre blanche (militaire).
Si la réponse est positive je pourrai vous envoyer des photos des pierres tombales
de la famille Martin pour localiser où se trouvait la pierre noire de mon père.
Merci!!

I tried (j’ai essaye’ bien fort) to get the video interview of Fr. Val LaFrance, O.P., as I’d known him for thirty years, and just found out about his glorious eternal birthday, which took place July 2………….. Vous avez un autre endroit ou je peux revisiter l’entretien avec lui? Que Dieu vous benisse, et nous tous. ~~~John (Jean) Ervin

P.S. Je demeurais quatre ans en France, malgre une naissance en Californie……

Comment on Guerette Family Reunion Slideshow by Ann L. Canfield

I attended the Guerrette reunion in Madawaska June 2008. It was nice to see the photos and videos of this gathering. BUT you have me very confused. You are showing my ancestor as Michel Latupille and that MUST BE AN ERROR. Our Guerrette ancestor was Michel Queret dit Latulippe. Was this an error on your part or were all the genealogists wrong?
