The Association des Familles Michaud inc. (Association of the Michaud Families) was founded in Québec city, May 6, 1987. It mainly regroups people from Canada and the United States with the surname of Michaud, but a few Michauds from France are also members. A number of factors were influential in the founding of the association : mainly. the aim to set up a structure that would allow the reuniting of the descendants of Pierre Michaud so that they can search and find their roots, that would provoke interest and disseminate the history of our ancestor and develop and promote some friendship and fraternity values among the membership.
The Association des Familles Michaud publishes
a newsletter called LE
BRELAN, for its members. This name come from an old French
word which means "to talk to each other" or "the place where we talk to
each other". This newsletter is published three times a year and
is free to all members in good standing. It contains different articles,
in french and english, articles that are related to the history of the
ancestors, the activities of the association in different regions, current
events and many informations that can be useful to members. The address
