Canada: Quebec

Quebec's genealogical records are among the most complete in North America, with Catholic parish registers dating to the early 1600s covering virtually every French Canadian family. Heritage Books carries titles for Quebec research including parish record indexes, compiled genealogies of the earliest colonial families, and reference works for navigating French Canadian research. French Canadian lines are among the most thoroughly documented in genealogy, and many American families of New England descent have French Canadian roots they have yet to discover.
