This site is divided into three major sections. The Genealogy section presents the basic facts regarding my ancestors: when and where they were born, married and died. This is the first stop for genealogists or hobbyists seeking information on the Vermettes or allied families of Québec and Brunswick, Maine. The History section attempts to put the meat on the genealogical bones, adding historical context and drawing on academic research as well as primary sources. This portion of the site will be of interest for those with a more generalized interest in the Franco-American experience and its back-story in Québec. The Viewpoints section will present my own opinions and ideas as I reflect on the material I have collected. This section will present some of the conclusions I have drawn from my journey of cultural re-discovery. In addition, I have included a Notes page where you may find some information about me and my sources, and a small selection of links.
April 29, 2006 -- New material in the Notes section: I have added new links including a link to the online magazine Késsinnimek - Roots - Racines. The latest edition (available May 1, 2006) includes an announcement of my site. The editor has also asked me to complete the article "The Search for Cecile Pilet: Our First Nations Ancestor?" for the June edition. Please see the abstract of this article. Thanks for visting.
