Happy Canada Day!! 馃嚚馃嚘

I usually say that my ancestors were kicked out of Canada, but at least one emigrated for love. My great-great grandfather John Bazinet, born in Montreal, fell in love with American Philomena Bertrand. They married and moved in 1867 to my hometown in northern New York, where they lived the rest of their lives and had roughly a bazillion kids together. 馃挒
