Margie, I just found your posting. The father
of William Temple Tovrea was William F Tovrea
born 1826 in IL. I also descend from William F
through his son Charles Thomas Tovrea. My family
also has the legend of coming from France into
Canada, but our family has been in the US longer
than first thought. You can view our family outline
tree at my home page:
