Those wishing to read about the immigration of French Canadians to the United States or
about Franco-American history in general should go to

At the site, under the heading of Franco-American history, you will find four sections.
The first, entitled Studies in Franco-American History, offers an extensive analysis of
the participation of Franco-Americans to the Civil War, a history of the immigration of
French Canadians to the United States, a database of names of Franco- Americans who
participated to the Civil War, texts on the Sentinelle and Flint Affairs and many more.
The Second part currently offers 16 documents of Franco-American history. A third section
has Resources for the Study of Franco-Americans which provide over 100 links to serious
sites to study Franco-American life. A last part links to major Franco-American
Associations and organizations.
