• Tracing Your French-Canadia n Ancestry: The Roman Catholic Church was a guiding influence in the lives of our French-Canadia n ancestors. The priests who cared for the spiritual needs of our ancestors and baptized, married, and buried our ancestors, carefully wrote the details of these events in their parish registers. Transcribed copies of these parish records were also sent to civil authorities. What we have today is an almost complete record of all baptisms, marriages, and burials for the entire province of Quebec. Many other documents have survived through the years, preserving personal details about the daily lives of our French-Canadia n ancestors.
