Mohawk Indian Heritage
My wife's family comes from Brantford, Ontario. She is able to trace her Mohawk lineage back to Joseph Brant (1743-1807). He was a famous Mohawk Indian chief that sided with the British during the American Revolution.

Jacques Goulet (1615-1688) is our French pioneer that was one of the first settlers of Quebec. Him and his wife arrived in New France in 1646. Most people with the Surname Goulet descend from this man.
