Hello Anita,
I have just started browsing today, after a few years of tinkering, and have found the info you have shared to be exciting!I come from the line of William Grant(b. 1743) and Marguarite Fafard dit Laframboise.I have a couple of questions though. About Marguarite's mother, according to my source from the St. Boniface Historical Society in Manitoba, Marguarite's mother is Marguarite Chatelain, daughter of Francois Chatelain and Marguarite Cardin;sorry, no dates!
My other question is William and Marguarite's children: your source has 3 children, but my source lists a Richard Grant b.20-01-1794, d.21-06-1862.He would have been the fourth child as William was born 1789, Marie Genevieve Grant born 1791, and Cuthbert Grant born 1793.That is my great x4 grandfather.Richard Grant worked at the HBC, and married Marie Anne Berland, b.1798 d.1834.
Are you able to shed any light in this void?I would be glad to share anything I know.
Merry Christmas and peace be with you,
