My mother had placed a lot of importance on family she died many years ago and most of my cousins have passed away also so I am alone in this search.My family line is Gilbert, Bourque, Maille, Charlebois, Gratton and Jusseaume.I have been able to trace the Maill family back to 1630 in France but the Gilberts have been much harder Thank you again Annette
