Has anyone ever heard of a town called "Mustaw"
somewhere in Canada? I have an ancestor, Michel
Fevrier dit Laramie, who is driving me insane. He
was born sometime between 1836 & 1842 in "Mustaw".
He has a brother, Albert, and possibly another
brother named Joseph. I am looking for his parents
or ANYTHING about him before 1870. He supposedly
immigrated to the US in 1858 from Canada (some
records say Upper Canada, some say Lower), but he
doesn't seem to exist before the US 1870 Census!
Thanks for ANY help!
Jeanette

Thanks to everyone who has responded! I should have
explained in my request that I was looking for info
on Michel's birth - i.e., his parents. Once he gets
to the US, I can follow him pretty well. I just
can't figure out where he actually came from, other
than Canada. Who were his parents? Grandparents?
Did he have any other siblings? Where did he
meet/marry his wife, Harriet Sova dit Plaunt?
I tried Google-ing "Mustaw" as a lot of you
suggested (I never thought of this), and what I get
is alot of middle-eastern stuff? I'll keep working
though. Thanks!
NEVER GIVE UP,
Jeanette
