There are royals in my family!!

I am the descendant of Catherine Marie Baillon. Who was the daughter of Alphonse de Baillon and Louise de Marle. Her parents were members of the minor French nobility. Catherine Baillon came to New France(Quebec, Canada) in 1669 as a King's daughter. To marry a settler, the settler was Jacques Miville. Going further back in her lineage, you will find connections to the major French and European royal houses. I like to thank others, who did the research from Catherine Marie Baillon on back. For there time to publish the research so that family researchers like me can add the information to their family trees. I am for ever grateful. For my part, I have to prove, I am a descendant of Catherine Marie Baillon. I have most of the marriage and birth documention and the census records to claim a descendant. It was through the Cotas, Bedards, Chevaliers, Lizots, Miville to Catherine Baillon.
