This is where Pierre Bourdeau was born in 1663 or 1659? He left France in 1689 and headed to Canada where the next 5 generations of Bourdeau's would settle. It wasn't until 1873 that a Bourdeau left Canada for the U.S. That would be Samuel Bourdeau, who move to Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin and Marry Mary Berland in 1874. Samuel would eventually settle in Minneapolis, where he died May 8th, 1919. His son George was also born in Quebec, in 1886. George would marry Eleanor Dhine, in 1913 my grandma Marie Bourdeau was born. Around 1935 Marie married Vernon Lloyd, sr and on June 2nd, 1946 my dad Vernon, jr was born. I was born July 12th, 1979! I'm very proud of my French Canadian ancestry!
