This family needs more study. Pierre Gagne (Gagnier) (1645-1726) had at least two grandsons, Louis and Pierre, who became voyageurs.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to look into this. Pierre Gagne ( b. 1645) was my ancestor, and I think I've found voyageur trips for his grandson Pierre, who was a son of the elder Pierre's son Francois.
ReplyDeleteCheck the 'Voyageurs Database,' sorry I don't have the url. I know lots of Gagne's are listed there. I think anyone from La Prairie, or nearby, is a likely candidate to have been a voyageur. Good luck.
