2. Hello Evelyn/Eveline – it’s so nice to meet someone with my name!
   I do not have this information off the top of my head (although the names are familiar) and it is 10 p.m. as I read this, so I’ll take a look at it tomorrow evening.
   I look forward to collaborating with you,

5. Bonjour Gisele,
   1.Je pense qu’on n’a pas les preuves que M.Caplan etait Mi’kmaq. On sait qu’elle etait autochtone et il semble que les autochtones dans la region etaient des mi’kmaqs.
   2. J’ai fait mon mtDNA (genealogie genetique) l’annee derniere et c’est sur que j’ai du sang autochtone. Je vais faire un test plus approfondie l’annee prochaine. Je sais que les rechercheurs de genetique ont fait des progres aux Etats Unis et qu’il commencent a voir les differences genetiques entre les nations autochtones.
   Un jour ca va peut-etre nous aider!
   Evelyn

6. Hello, my name is Ray ROY and I just had my genealogy completed by my cousin Michele Doucette from Newfoundland.My native blood lines are through Robichaud,Mallet,and Duguay,and all these lines go back to Margurite Caplan. Victorin Mallet and Barbara Zack are also my cousins their mtDna results are that of haplogroup C.
   I have a book on Micmac culture done by Ruth Holms Whitehead called Elitekey. There is a picture in it that is almost Identecal to the one you have on the top of your page. Would love to hear from you if you have Time. Thank you Ray

7. Happy to have found your site…it is wonderful….looking at all the names it appears we are distant cousins with many connections.

   Just glancing I see a connection to the Anglehart line and also to the Guitar(d) as my gr-grandmother was Philomene Guitar daughter of Francois & Olive Chamberlain

   keep the good work up!

8. I’m a decendent of Marquerite Caplan and Francois Larocque ,I find it very strange that her Mother’s name cannot be found
   as her Father was Guiiliaume M Caplan and married in 1725 to this native women .any one has any info ?????

9. Hello. A cousin of mine is doing some genealogical research and believes that Marguerite Caplan is an ancestor of our grandfather Abraham Duguay. It is a little confusing because my grandfather’s mother’s (Angelique Denis Duguay)paternal grandfather and her maternal grandmother were siblings who were the grandchildren of Marguerite Caplan! PHEW!! Marguerite’s mother is referred to only as “INDIENNE AMERINDIENNE’”born in 1680. The last poster stated they were married in 1725, but we have Marguerite’s birthday as 1698. Any more recent information?

   • OOPS, meant to say that my grandfather’s mother’s paternal great grandfather and her maternal great grandmother were siblings who were the grandchildren of Marguerite through her daughter Madeline.
