After every announcement of the meetings of the French-Canadian Heritage
Society of Michigan I
receive emails asking for information about the Society. In the interest of
explaining the "who we
are" and "what we do" to everyone who may be interested, I wish to pass
along the following
information.
I have received permission to post the Table of Contents for the Society's
January issue of their journal,
*Michigan's Habitant Heritage*. Should you wish to learn more about the
Society, please visit our

French-Canadian Heritage
Society of Michigan is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, and I receive no
form of remuneration
for posting this information. The Table of Contents posted hereinafter is
purely for informational purposes
