Le monde fascinant de la généalogie génétique
Date and Time: Wednesday, 16 October, 2019 - 19:30 EDT
Depuis que le chercheur britannique Alec Jeffreys a confirmé en 1984 par des tests ADN l'identité d'un
enfant ghanéen menacé d'expulsion, la généalogie génétique n'a cessé de se développer.
Employés aujourd'hui pour élucider des controverses historiques, pour résoudre des enquêtes non
résolues, pour identifier les parents biologiques d'un enfant adopté ou tout simplement pour faire ressortir
des "bris d'arbre familial" (événements non parentaux) en généalogie classique, les tests ADN sont devenus
un outil complémentaire mais combien essentiel pour toute généalogiste qui se respecte. Que sont ces tests ?
Que permettent-ils de trouver ? Quels sont leurs limites ? C'est ce que j'aurai le plaisir de vous faire découvrir
tout au long de ce webinaire !

Fenians in the Neighbourhood
Date and Time: Thursday, 28 November, 2019 - 19:30 EDT
Missisquoi Museum curator and a projects director for the Quebec Anglophone Heritage Network, Heather Darch will
discuss the community of Missisquoi County that lived close to the border during the Fenian Raids of 1866. While
attention has been given to the Fenian soldiers, the Canadian and British militia units as well as the home guards
during the Fenian Raids conflict, the citizens of the border region were also involved and directly affected by the
military action that took place in what was a relatively quiet region in Quebec. From court documents, letters and
diaries, the voices of those who lived along the border add another element to a fascinating local story and an
important part of Canadian history.

Family Ancestrees
Date and Time: Wednesday, 23 October, 2019 - 19:00 EDT
Sue Sullivan, the Graphic Genealogist, is a professional Graphic Designer and owner of FMS Creative Inc.
In 2010 she was bit by the genealogy bug and after several months of uncovering great aunts and third
cousins (twice removed), inspiration struck. What would an extended family tree, full of cousins look like?
As a visual person, she wanted more than a line chart. Sue wanted something visceral, a bold picture that
told the story of generations. This was the genesis of Family Ancestrees.
Sue will show us her very unique, personal way of showing off your family history as art!

The Scots in Montreal and Quebec
Date and Time: Thursday, 13 February, 2020 - 19:00 EDT
The Scots have played an important role in the development and history of Quebec since the advent of British control
of the region after 1759. This presentation will provide an overview of the settlement of the Scots in the province
(with an emphasis on Montreal), the development of their own cultural institutions such as the Presbyterian Church,
voluntary associations such as St. Andrew’s Societies, the Sons of Scotland, and sports clubs organizing curling, golf
and shinty. There are a number of resources available to the family researcher, looking for information on their
Scottish-Quebec ancestors. These will be discussed, including the use of private or associational archives such
as the St. Andrew’s Society of Montreal.
