Please keep this exchange on line. Our VADEBONCOEURS were in Keeseville in mid 1800s, and were mostly Indian, but trying to find proof has been difficult. Supposedly came originally from Kanawaga Reservation near Montreal but some were on the Canadian side of the St Regis Res. early in 1800s. ( using the BONCOEUR form of the name which became BUNKER where the VADEBONCOEURS became HARTS) Pursuing this, in the early census of Clinton Co. ( late 1700s), were the slaves that a few Clinton County owners were taxed on, Indian? Joyce
