I would like to clarify something about the Mackinac Resister and Wisconsin Collection records we recently have had info on our site about. Jean Baptiste GOUIN dit Champagne died on Mackinac Island Aug 1, 1754. He is listed as Jean Baptiste GOURN dit Champagne. I understand this is what was on his cross in the cemetery there and the translations wee are talking about. When people that are not familiar with French names do the translations that misspell a lot of names. If you don't find the name you are looking for be sure to look for the misspelled names. Good luck everyone. Jan Gouin About a year ago I purchased the CD Mackinac Register 1695-1888 from Ste. Anne's Church. I believe it was $20 or $25 and it contains both the images of the original registers and the SHSW translation. The address is: Ste. Anne's Church, P.O. Box 537, Mackinac Island, MI 49757. Hope this helps. Betty Jack
Does Goein become Gurnoe or something like that?
