Hello,
Some years ago, there was a family reunion and celebration of the Chouinard relatives who had traced their ancestry back 300 years. I am part of that family, born in Quebec and part of the St. Jean Port Jolie arrivals three centuries ago. Although I did not attend this reunion, there are cousins who did so. There is a Coat of Arms for the family Chouinard and other interesting information you might be able to find from Montreal.
I once travelled to St. Jean Port Jolie and found the memorial stone with our name on it signifying the arrival of the Chouinards. Best of luck to you.
Dolores

Does anyone have any information on a Francis/Francois Chouinard/Swenor/Swenord/Schouinard born abt 1821 in French Canada and was a cooper and married to Cynthia Gerard b abt 1836. They had 7 children Frank/Francis b.1852, Henry b.1856, Louis b.1858, Joseph b.1859, Cynthia b.1861, Elmer/Edmond b.1862, Harriet b.1862. The family moved to Boonton, NJ probably between 1860-70. By 1880 the father and the elder brothers seem to have disappeared from the census records. Joseph married Mary Lane and had daughter Katherine Marie Vincythia Swenord b.1894 who is my great grandmother. Joseph's brother Almon/Edmond married a woman named Annie and had at least 4 children, Mary T, Fannie E, Edmund and Helen. Edmund married someone named Bertha and had at least 3 children John b.1922, William b.1923 and Anna b.1924 they lived in Boonton/Montville NJ. I don't know who the female children married. But I'd love to hear from anyone who has any information or is related to this family.
Thanks

Your Francois Chouinard is not the same person as Francois Xavier Chouinard born in Montreal in 1821. The Montreal born Francois Xavier Chouinard settled in Trenton, Ontario, around 1850 and sometime in the 1870's he moved on to Muskegon, Michigan, where he died in 1891. I have no knowledge of your Francois Chouinard.
