Lanctot - Quebec - First Nations People?
I have traced my Lanctot ancestors back to Quebec in the 1860s. I was discussing my research with my sister a few weeks back and she said that a Canadian gentleman that works with her mentioned something about "Lanctot" being a "big name in one of the [???] tribe in Canada." Of course she didn't write it down! Can't count on non-genealogists for anything LOL. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had ever run across a specific tribal people with the surname Lanctot. I haven't found any mention of a native ancestry ... only hints at immigration from France at some point not yet proven by any of my research to date. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help.

More than likely your French Ancestors married some of the natives, which would explain why there's Native Blood. I have it with my hubbys Bedard family, one or more of the boys married Native women.. and in Church no less which came as a complete suprise.. here are some things you can check out:
