James, I would be happy to translate from the book you mentioned. Can you send it electronically?

Teitelbaum

Porté en principe par des Juifs askhénazes, le nom signifie mot à mot "l'homme à la datte" ("Teytl", forme yiddish de l'allemand "Dattel" = datte). Teitel est également un nom de famille juif, tout comme Teitelbaum (= le dattier), écrit aussi Teitelbom, Teitelboim. Pour expliquer la symbolique de ces noms, on se réfère le plus souvent au verset 92:13 des Psaumes (ou 92:12 selon les versions) : "Le juste poussera (fleurira) comme un palmier, il se multipliera comme un cèdre du Liban".

I have a book published in 1861 titled: Relation de ce qui s'est passe de plus remarquable aux missions des peres de la Compagnie de Jesus en la Nouvelle France les annes 1672 et 1673, by Claude Dablon.  I was wondering if any of our French speakers would be willing to translate some of the chapters so we can post them here. It might be interesting to read about the early missionaries. Thanks, Jim.

Salut Lorraine, C'est bien que vous vous interessez a la genealogie! Moi, je descends de la famille Crevier, et de la famille Cazes (cote maternelle, toutes les deux) Mon nom de famille, Teitelbaum, n'est certainement ni francais ni canadien! De toute facon, me voila. bonnes recherches!

Good evening everyone,

I am a new member and it will be very easy to detect my french accent (smile).

I am a Acadian from New-Brunswick.

I am not searching for anyone in particular, I just love genealogy.

I will now read everything in here and see what I can find.

Yes Laurence, mention has been made. Please, everyone read back comments here as some of them may be of interest. Thanks, Jim.

I don't know if you know this but Family Search put online the church records of Québec and a little more.

 

Here's the link, hope it works.

Welcome to all the new members. Hope you will share info with us - posting obits, adding to the surname listing, research sites of interest, queries, etc. Do you speak French? Do you have any family stories to share. Any F-C recipes handed down in your family? Sometimes sharing these things jogs memories for others in recording their family history.

 

Please feel free to post genealogies of families you are interested in. You can then point family members to the link. You can also always update your genealogy easily.

 

Thanks for your interest in this site. Jim.
