A Lajeunesse/Paquette Family of Montebello Quebec

Last February I published a post (Sommier/Lajeunesse (aka Saulmier/Saulnier) | Papineauville, Petite Nation | Evelyn In Montreal) in reply to a query by Elise Campeau who is looking for more information about her grandfather, and in particular his aboriginal heritage. Elise is still looking for information about her ancestors, and wanted to share these pictures of her grandfather.
