About 1855, my gggrandfather Pierre Cartier emigrated to Centerville, Minnesota from
Yamaska, Canada. He had a sister Marguerite born about 1924. Their parents were Louis
Cartier and Dorothee Ritchot.
Coincidentally, today, I found a stoneware jug for sale on ebay with the inscription
"lafleur hotel yamaska." Hoping to find out about this hotel, I typed those
words into the google search engine and was surprised to see that the second hit listed
was "the ancestors of Guillaume Forcier." I took a look at the site and found
the information you're looking for on Joseph Forcier and Margaret Cartier and their
family (see #17). Here's the link:

Hope this helps you with your research. Good luck.
