About Us
FCHSM was established in 1980 as an educational, historical, cultural, and genealogical nonprofit organization, committed to making people aware of the rich culture and history of French Canadians in North America. We hold 6 meetings per year, featuring experts on the history of French North America, that are free and open to the public. See our full meeting schedule here. Past programs are available on our YouTube channel and our recorded meetings webpage. The menu at left provides in-depth historical and cultural resources about New France and French-Canadian settlements throughout the Great Lakes and Upper Mississippi Valley.
