[net.roots] Canadian Research

For those of you pursuing Canadian Research, I know of a couple
resources that may be of interest.

There is an excellent publication put out on Quebec French research
called "Lost in Canada" by Joy Resinger.  It is $10.00 per year
and well worth it if you have French research.

Also, I've corresponded with a woman who can help people with research
in Ontario, Canada.  My research is located in Quebec, Canada.  She did
pass on a valuable piece of information to me; she told me that the town
of Three Rivers is located on the St. Lawrence, in Quebec.  This was a
great help because up until then, I had no idea where in Canada Three
Rivers was located.  (Victor, your question reminded me of this.)

Please include an SASE if you write to either of these people.

Just passing through:
People of French-Canadian ancestry might contact 
"Chercheurs en Genealogie du Quebec". Sorry, no address.
Just about every public library in Quebec has a thick
book of genealogies.
"Three Rivers" is the English name for "Trois Rivieres",
on the St. Maurice river. The English community in la Mauricie
has been dying out for the past twenty years.
