Thanks Renee Gail's First Métis Families of Quebec. Volume 4: Descendants of Pierre Couc dit Lafleur and Marie Mitequamigoukoue, An Algonquin available from genealogical.com Please let your library know http://www.genealogical.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&item_number=8374 The term Métis originally referred to the offspring produced from the intermarriage of early French fur traders with Canadian Native Americans. While undoubtedly an understatement, from the 1640s to the 1740s only fifty-six Métis marriages were officially recorded in French records. This series traces the descendants of those Métis families who ultimately settled in the western part of the North American continent. Volume 4 traces the progeny of Pierre Couc dit Lafleur, the head of a fur trade and merchant family, who married Marie Mitequamigoukoue in 1657, in the Yamaska region of Quebec. This couple had at least seven children, including two who took the surname Montour. Future volumes will concentrate on the descendants of Jean Durand, Pierre Lamoureux, and Daniel-Joseph Amiot.
