“My daughter, Jeanne, also sailed to New France almost two years ago. Although she sent word through the nuns in Ville-Maria that she was fine, I do not hear from her. She does not know how to write.”

What a wonderful story. With your words, you made Madeleine Chrétien real to us. Well done, Ann Marie!
Thank you sweet lady…you are always so encouraging… <3

Thanks Joyce…maybe one day…
I too am connected to the Fille du Roi
I love hearing and reading about them
Such an interesting and intriguing group of women…
Beautifully, well-written story, Ann Marie! Brilliant and so exciting that it is of an account of your family. Great research! Hoping all is well! ;-)))
Thank you..doing great…on summer break…wahoo! how are you?
Glad to hear it! Life is good! We are heading home next Thursday for a my wife’s high school reunion, so that will be a blast. Mine is next year and that will be a blast too! ;-)))
Oh that will be fun. I am going to my reunion in October…can’t wait to see everyone…this will be the first one I have been able to attend.
Awesome!
Well done Ann Marie! Imagine the courage it took to accept the offer and make the trip, knowing how big the disconnect would be from everyone you know. We have little to compare it to these days.
I can’t even begin to imagine the heartache..
