Thanks for taking the time to look at this. My last name is LaPoint and I have been refered to the Godard and Tousignant boards as LaPoint is a dit for these. My problem is this: I have the descendants of Francois LaPointe, s/o Francois and Rosalie Miron, and Marie Antaya dit Pelletier, d/o Michel and Marie Menard. I also have the descendants of Michel/Baptiste LaPointe, the man Marie Antaya dit Pelletier married after Francois died. I know there has to be someone looking for this same Michel/Baptiste, but for the life of me, I cannot find him! All I know is that "he came from Red River of the North", and he worked for the Am. Fur Co. Now after searching through the Civil war records of WI, I fnd that there is a town(?) called Red River! Anyone have any ideas if Francois or Michel could be a Godard? Thank You!! Alice
