Genealogy of the French in North America
Quebec Royal Descends (QRD30)
This table is a list of immigrants having a king among
their
ancestors. The list is limited to people coming from
France and
who spent at least one winter in North America, or to
people who moved
(for at least one year) to one of the former French
colonies on the
North American continent. So, the list is not
limited to the
province of Quebec but to the diocese of Quebec as defined
in the
1700s. Also, if a Royal
Descend immigrant came with his/her children or sibling,
they
are included in the list.
Group with accepted lines with or without
North
American descendants (proven or looking like correct
until proven wrong)
Background colors mean:
- Green: I have descendants after 1900 in my database or
I
know descendants or I know that descendants exist
- Blue: otherwise
- White: more documents about one line
Notes:
while I tried to link all immigrants to their family page,
not all
lines are found there. Moreover, in many cases, it
is not easy to find the shorter line to royalty. I
will try to
improve this in a later release. I tried to link
each immigrant
to his/her family sheet except when he/she was married
many times or
after the database threshold (link to the the parents);
the links were
added manually. Statistics are based on the 2011
release.

Many
sites have published a part of that
genealogy. The problem is
that most of them have no source or have another
site as the
source. Moreover, one site that examined
many other sources had a

While
the De Billy families in Quebec are
probably descending from one of the noble De Billy
families and the
line from them to a king is documented in
Père Anselme, the
links to the parents of Jean-François is
not proven. The
demonstration of René Jetté in his
traité can be
considered as meaningful as it says something like
(p. 591) "...if the
migrant Jean François de Billy is actually
the son of
François de Billy, seigneur de
Baricourt: "... si
l'immigrant français Jean François
de
Billy était bien fils de François
de Billy, seigneur de
Baricourt...". |

The migrant told to his children he was the natural son of Louis XV, then one child repeated that to a priest and this later to the author of the BRH article. Can't be proven without DNA testing |

A searcher pretends Ernst is the same as Philipp
II Ernst Lippe, a German prince. The problem
is this claim is
based on
a secret document. Moreover, the signatures
of the immigrant and
the prince are different. |

The proof of the parents of Anne Élisabeth

strong enough. Moreover, she is the daughter
of a noble and he is
a shoemaker, i.e. huge social difference. |

Notes :
- The column descendants has usually 5 values. They are the number of marriages of descendants (excluding the migrant) in my database. The 5 values covers years1600-1699, 1700-1799, 1800-1899, 1900-1999 and 2000 or more.
- Statistics about the content of my marriages database on a separate document.
- * means I know one descendant.. In some cases, that line is not in my database.
- The quality of the royal line is described as follows:
- Fully documented: documentation based on original records.
- Looks like correct, considered as safe: documentation based on reliable secondary sources (like d'Hozier and Père Anselme).
- To be tested: a part of documentation is from less reliable sources.
- Likely: descendance of a known family with royal descent, but the exact line is to be found.
- Controversy: some searchers may reject that line for the said reason.
- Some figures decreased between 2004 and 2005. It
seems I made a mistake when counting them in 2004.
