French Canadian Genealogy Sources

From Salem Links and Lore

Salem Public Library has a collection of journals about French Canadian Genealogy, due to the large influx of

French Canadians to the city of Salem to work in the textile mills and the leather industry.

These are stored in boxes in the Salem Collection Room.
