About You?

All Soucys today trace their lineage to Jean Soucy-LaVigne (c.1643–78) and Jeanne Savonnet (c.1650-1721), immigrants from Paris, France to Quebec and through at least one of their four grandsons. Their story is expertly told by L’Association des familles Soucy ( Quebec) which is dedicated to preserving and promoting Soucy family heritage. It publishes original, well documented and definitive family research in its annual bulletin, “La Source”. Summaries of certain articles are available in English on the Association’s web site: http://www.genealogie.org/famille/Soucy.

I am Ronald Bernard, American-born son of French-Canadian immigrants. A Soucy on my maternal side, I have been researching that family’s genealogy since 1983. I have an extensive data base of connected Soucys (Family Tree Maker) and hope to one day complete and make available the entire tree, an ambitious idea which has become feasible thanks to the advent of the Internet. (Although I am a Director of L’Association des familles Soucy, right now this is my independent project with encouragement of the Board).

After years of research I have collected a large file (~ 5000) of Soucys/ spouses who are still unconnected. These names, relationships and details were obtained from numerous public sources including church repertories, obituaries and wedding and birth announcements, state and provincial vital records, the U.S. SSDI, published family histories, on-line Soucy name lists, veterans listings, on-line cemetery lists, news and genealogical society articles, etc. Although none of this information has been validated and there may be duplicates and over-lapping, it is presented here in raw form in the hope that others may recognize individuals and families and help to accurately connect “missing” Soucys.
