I got this email from Philippe who says that Guertin derives from a french expression Louis " Le Sabotier" Guertin who came from France abt 1675 and is apparently the ancestor of all Guertin's in North America.
Guertin in USA known as Yetto.
But my family name was changed to Yetter and my ancestor was Joshope Gurtin or Guertin and he came from France and settled in the Coaticook, Quebec area. He married a Charlotte Eaton.
His year of birth is 1818-1899
Do you know if Simon or Samuel had any brothers or sisters.
