Hello, I would like to tell you that I have just started up a new List. I mean it to include research for all the Counties which exist north of the St. Lawrence River in the Province of Quebec. I am aware that many of the Counties have now been grouped into "municiopalities." For instance: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argenteuil_Regional_County_Municipality%2C_Quebec I am also aware that for residents of the U.S., the place-name, Laurentides, might not be familiar. As a resident of the U.S., I had to learn about it myself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurentides_(region) I also had to learn about the Laurentian Mountains: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurentian_mountains I had thought about naming a new List for "Argenteuil County," because that is where some of my ancestors settled. * But I needed to include a much larger area. I thought about naming it, Laurentian Mountains, but found out there was Message Board for LAURENTIDES. So I decided to use the same name. This is the information page: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/intl/CAN/LAURENTIDES.html I have also found out that the area - north of the St. Lawrence - is often referred to as the Southwest part of the Province of Quebec. But, some refer to as "Quebec North." But, if you look at a map of Canada, you will see that the Province is very large, and there is a very large part of the Province which is MUCH north of the St. Lawrence River. Thank you for your time.

Some postings are about bordering towns. My ancestors were part of a KERR / HENDERSON family-group which settled there in 1820's.)
