I am looking for information about all these families. Andrew Browne was one of the first people to live in Trenholmville and St. Felix de Kingsey.

What type of information do you seek? If it is birth, marriage, or death, those records are held by the parishes and many are available on microfilm. Census records are also available on microfilm.

Perhaps if you share specifics about the individuals and any dates and locations known plus specific questions, someone will be able to help you.

Regards,
Sharyn

Thank you for this information. Andrew Brown was my grandfather's great grandfather. James Brown was his grandfather. Harry and Eleanor were my grand parents. I appreciate this information. I go to the Trenholm cemetery each time I visit. If ever you have any more info on these or any other of my family members, I would love to be informed. Dennis

Yes, I have checked the collection. It wasn't as helpful as I would have liked. I am still unable to trace Andrew's journey to Canada. I know he was Irish by birth, but, I have been unable to find out what part of Ireland. I tried to contact Drummondville and trace the original homestead. My french isn't as good as it use to be. I believe the homestead is in the Brock family now.
