Without going through all my records ,please visit my Blog
beaugrand.wordpress.com Beaugrand's Blog
where I discuss the migration of the French from France to Nouvelle France (Quebec). You
might find interesting.
I think you might know that a Jean Beaugrand came to Nouvelle France on 1665 as a soldier.
However it is still to be determined where in France he originated. I think the province
of Champagne around Troyes but untill we can get someone to take a DNA test there with the
name Beaugrand the question will not be resolved. There were about 6 or 7 soldiers that
had Champagne in their name but with a different family name.
I will continue to provide documental history on my Blog for anyone that is interested to
look over. I have taken the genealogical DNA test and can prove that I descend from Jean
Baptiste Beaugrand the son of the first Jean Beaugrand the soldier
Raymond Beaugrand
