Notes:
- One of first and well renowned genealogist of
French-Canadians is Mgr Cyprien Tanguay. According to the
founder of the «Société Généalogique Canadienne
Française», Archange Godbout, himself a priest, Mgr
Tanguay skip certain facts. Let see what he is saying:
- «Mgr Tanguay is slightly tendentious in his dictionary
in mentioning only on a few occasions the abjurations,
the illegitimate births and the death sentences. The
history of Canadian peoples is magnificent, we agree, but
in reading Mgr Tanguay, we must ask if it a human
history.»
- We owe much to Archange Godbout on the knowledge of the
Huguenot origins of many families in New-France. Making
his research in La Rochelle he did not limit his research
to the Catholic churches but he include the protestant
temple.
