Franz,,,I recently replied to a Randy
Bruyere asking if he had any info that might be connected to myself. Briefly, My father was born in Maniwaki Quebec,,,He was the only sibling of approx 11-13 that spelled his name
Briere,,,all his brothers and sisters used
Bruyere. His fathers name was Jean-Baptiste
Bruyere,,,mother was Esther
Baker (or
Boulanger), I have nothing more to offer other than the names of a good portion of his siblings. They all spoke very little of their heritage and I have tried for years and have always come to a dead end. If there is anything you find that may look close, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks, Maurice
