Thanks for the info Frank.......John Baptist was related to us...........although you spell the name abit different......Some spelled it Cushway, Cauchois.....My grandparents were from Mackinac Island and Cheboygan.......coming from Canada....coming from France.......I would LOVE more information...........My great grandparents were Edwin and Catherine Couchois,they lived on the island......my grandfather and his brothers and dad ran boats, had the mail contract, owned carriages, etc.......
Most of the family is buried on the island in the Couchois Family plot..........Who was your greatgrandmother married to????
I can only go back to Edwin Couchios....hard to go back much farther for me......
I also have located family in California....who are second cousins.....
My own father just passed away this past May.....and he was the oldest remaining Couchois on our side........so except for his pictures and tapes.....the stories end .....but I am trying to find out as much as I can for my brothers and sisters and the rest ........
My email address is:
Mismike25@cs.comPlease feel free to contact me there.....would love to find out how to get more info....
Thanks
Carol Couchois
