Hello John,
I was checking this web site as I enjoy doing geneologies and and realized you are related to my kids.You probably remember Jennifer Hounjet from La Ronge Detox. What a small world.We have off and on over the years traced some family history.
Jen's grandmother was orphaned at a young age and not forth coming with much info on family history until recent years.She was very impacted by the treatment of Metis people back in the 20's and 30's etc. It has impacted the family through the generations.
The kids Gr. Grandmother was Hermaline (Arcand) and William Schroeder.Gr. Gr. Grandparents Gaspard and Mary(Merasry, Opekokew) Arcand, Gr. Gr. Gr. Jean Baptiste and Nancy MacKay) Arcand.
I'd be interested in info you have as would Jen's Aunts and Uncles as many have been curious about the family roots. Maybe I can give you some info you are missing in your tree.
Thanks John.
