my husband's grandmother's maiden name was Michaud. she was married to Emile Kirouac of which are many when i searched tonight. Although I have alot of experience with geneology, we are newly married and this is the first work i've done on his family. We will be getting in touch with our family to get more specifics. Please feel free to keep in touch. P.S. They did live in Van Buren, that is where many of his family still live.
