Hi Larry. Sorry for the delay in answering. My Couture tree starts in Owen Sound for sure in 1851. Guesses are that they started in Drummond Island, had to leave in 1828, and went to Owen Sound, Ontario, on Georgian Bay for the fishing there. Because our Joseph Couture had an Indian mother and a courer do bois father, I wonder if he came from the Jean Baptiste line who married in to the Campau family in Detroit in the 1700s. If your friends Couture is Indian and father came from Canada, there could be a connection. Does your friend have anything before John, born 1878? That is the problem we are having .... is to find birth records for our Joseph Couture. He was born about 1828, and died in 1909, still in Owen Sound. More information on request. Larry, I know you have all the connections and have done extensive research on all native sites. I sure hope you can help with this one for your friend and I. Any help would be appreciated to connect these families. I will give you the website that my daughter has made regarding our Coutures and see if this will help.

Hi James. Claude Couture is a brother to the Joseph Couture born to Jean Baptiste Couture and Catherine Campau. I have been unable to find any information on this Joseph although the rest of the family seem to be well researched. At one time I had an address for Claude's descendants and he had a large amount of information about Claude and many generations therafter. But nobody seems to have any information on this Joseph. That is why I think he became a footloose courier de bois, and went to Drummond Island to live and eventually fathered my Joseph Couture who lived for many years in Owen Sound, Ontario. Thanks for information, James.

Leora Can you send me more? Dates, places, siblings, children, etc. I would like to see if I can do the connections. The friend I am researching for is the son of a now deceased very good friend of mine. Our families have had close ties for many, many years.
