Thank you for your interest in our heritage organization. Our group was founded in 1994 by amateur genealogists, members, and former members of the Canadian section of the Genealogy Bulletin Board on the Prodigy on-line service. The purpose of La Société des Filles du roi et soldats du Carignan is to honor the memory of our courageous ancestors, the filles du roi (King's Daughters) and the soldiers of the Carignan-Salières Regiment of 17th century New France.
We wish to foster a sense of pride in our common French Canadian heritage,
to encourage the study of the history and culture and the practice of
genealogical research, and to promote related educational goals. Currently,
members discuss this topic on-line on Prodigy, AOL, CompuServe, and other
locations on the Internet.
La Société des
Filles du roi et soldats du Carignan, a not-for-profit corporation
recognized by the Department of Education in New York State and a tax-exempt
charitable organization registered with the IRS, offers two types of
membership, full and associate. Membership dues for all members are US$15.00
per year. For Full Membership, there is a one-time fee of US$20.00 for
certification, in addition to the US$15.00 annual dues (total US$35.00).
Each certification after approval of your first ancestor's lineage requires
payment of a one-time fee of US$7.50. There are minor charges for the
reproduction and mailing of documents or diskettes for the exchange of data.
Back issues of the newsletter are available to members for a donation of
US$5.00 per issue. A copy of our bylaws and annual financial reports are
available to all members upon request. Full members elect the Directors who
govern the Société, elect the officers, and vote on other issues affecting
our organization.
