VANASSE MIGRATION PROJECT

newengland.gif

The purpose of this section is to trace all Vanasse families in the United States back to their families of origin back in Quebec . I am basing this on the 1900 and 1910 census. I am concentrating mainly on New England since most French Canadian families immigrated here between 1880 and 1920 .
