This revised edition of our family history contains detailed sources on all genealogical data. The book follows the four main branches of my and my husband Patrick’s families. It is a combination of genealogical data, based on research conducted over a ten-year period and, in the case of the more recent members of our family, anecdotal information.

The family names whose stories are included in the book are:

“Douville”, whose first ancestor, Pierre Moran, immigrated to Quebec from the Auvergne about 1677;

“Samson”, whose first ancestor, Jacques Samson, immigated to Quebec from Normandy about 1666;

“Krohn”, whose ancestors were traced to Hamburg in 1791; and

“French”, who were traced to Oxfordshire in 1775.

There is also a short chapter on Patrick’s mother’s maternal branch, the Walkers, from Scotland.
