Searching for native connection for Marie L'Esperance. Born 5/6/1845 in
Canada.
Parents were Marclle Talon dit L'Esperance born 1804 and Marguerite Comet
born 1808. They were married in Henryville QC on 7/30/1829
We believe they were native American. Probably Abenaki but maybe Micmac. I
have been searching for YEARS for the answer to this mystery. Their
offspring are listed on the tribal rolls of the Abenaki in Swanton VT.
These are my relatives as well. Their common relation is Marie L'Esperance
and her husband Charles Ouimet. I have the documents that link us in
genealogy but none that say "native" for the proof required to be
acknowledged by the tribe. Can anyone help me?
thanks so very much,
Krislyn Ouimet Lequin
