    1. [CAN-ONT-SIMCOE] More Drummond Islanders - LACHAPELLE
    2. Pam Tessier
    3. Hello List, Another name on the list of Drummond Islanders is ETIENNE LACHAPELLE. Sometime after the Migration in 1828/1829, he is said by A.C. Osborne to have moved to Holland Landing, probably around 1837. Research done in the last month, has revealed zip on Etienne Lachapelle. The Lachapelles in Simcoe (Midland, Creemore) and York (Georgina, Newmarket) appear to be different families but they have used the same first names creating a very confusing situation for researchers. Louis is by far the most popular! Francois Lachapelle & Josette Cloutier (found in Beaverton records) Esther Lachapelle & James Doyle (married 1837, second marriage for Esther, previously married to Weak, two Doyle children baptized in Penetang with sponsors from Georgina Township) Anyone knowing who the above people are or if you have a connection to any Simcoe or York County Lachapelles, perhaps you can help solve this problem. Please contact me off list. We can post the results of our collaboration to the list at a later date. It would be nice to know Etienne’s fate or, better yet, where he was in 1828! Pam
