Hi folks, And even further north than Maine is Canada. I sub to surnamesearchdaily" , a yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SurnameSearchDaily/ Today's link to: http://www.abcgenealogy.com/New/24-Mar-2006.html Has "CAN-CHALEUR-BAY-IRISH Mailing List - Topic: A mailing list for anyone with a genealogical interest in the Irish Protestants from southwest Cork who settled in the Bay Chaleur area of New Brunswick and Quebec, Canada in the early 1800s." Ireland once had a much larger minority of Protestants spread throughout. Most were not Presbyterians or had fantasies about their ancestors being Scottish (their ancestors were English and Irish). Anyhow, many emigrated to Canada. Largely Ontario but hey, here's some that settled in Quebec. First time I ever heard of them too! Or...the Bay Chaleur either <grin>!
