Several local Gaspesians have made tremendous contributions toward preserving the history and genealogy of the Gaspe area. It is our objective, at GoGaspe, to provide access to as much of this information as possible, either by adding the information to our site, or including links to relavent pages.
Scanning, assembling and uploading material to GoGaspe requires considerable time and expense, and your donations help make the effort worthwhile. If you would like to assist, simply follow the "Donate to GoGaspe" link at the top right.
