French-Canadian Genealogical Research in Houghton County, Michigan

Yes, you read that right. According to research conducted by John P. DuLong, Ph.D., Michigan not only is home to a large number of French-Canadians and their descendants in the area, but Houghton is only second to Detroit in the number of French-Canadians who settled there by the turn of the century.

Be sure to check out his website which is an updated version of DuLong's original five-part article for more details about French-Canadian migration, communities, records available for research and more!
