In answer to question :
I have been trying to pinpoint who, in the Albert Family Tree of Paspebiac, has American Indian roots. My grandfather, J.-Adelard Albert of Winslow and Waterville, Maine (U.S.A.) use to tell my mother that his grandmother (in Paspebiac, Quebec) was American Indian. He did not say what tribe. If he mentioned her name, my mother cannot remember it, but the geneology lists a Julienne Denis who was married to Jean Albert, my grandfather\'s grandfather. My grandfather, J. Adelard Albert immigrated to Waterville, Maine from Paspebiac, Quebec. He married Virginie Delarosbil, whom I was named after. Jean-Baptiste Albert and Angelique Lebrasseur of Paspebiac were my great-great-great grandparents. Perhaps there was Micmac lineage in the Lebrasseur family? I would like to know. My great-grand parents, Jean-Baptiste Albert and M.-Jane Joseph married in 1883 in Paspebiac. Could there have been American Indian lineage from the Joseph family? In addition, my grandmother\'s parents, Elisee Delarosbil and Angelique Bernatchez, may have Micmac lineage in their family tree. I truly would like to find documentation of my American Indian heritage that my grandfather Adelard Albert talked about. I would also like to connect with any relatives I still may have living in Pasbebiac. Since so many generations of my Albert family and Delarobil family lived in Paspebiac, it would be surprising to me if I was not connected to anyone in the Paspebiac area of the Gaspe even now. Please contact me if you can help me connect with my French and American Indian roots in Paspebiac, Quebec in the Gaspe. Merci beaucoup!
