French-Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan
 
The French-Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan (FCHSM) was organized in 1980 as an educational, historical, cultural, and genealogical non-profit organization, committed to make people aware of the rich culture and history of French Canadians in North America. 
  • A subscription to Michigan’s Habitant Heritage (MHH), our scholarly, quarterly journal, is included as part of an annual membership in FCHSM.  FCHSM Members have access to all of our past issues published since 1980 through our website.  
  • Membership fees are only $35 per year for U.S. members and $45 per year in U.S. funds for Canadian Members.  See https://habitantheritage.org/cpage.php?pt=44 to join FCHSM.  That's less than what you and your significant other or friend would pay to attend a movie and have a meal after the movie!
  • In an effort to reach as many people as possible, all of our in-person meetings are free and open to the public.
  • We also hold approximately six Zoom meetings per year. Our speakers include authors and experts who make presntations on a variety of topics about the History of New France, the Great Lakes, the Mississippi Valley, Fort St. Joseph, Michilimackinac, and Detroit.  Unlike some organizations who charge their members to attend their Zoom Meetings, our Zoom Metings are also free and open to the public. See our Meetings Page for our Meeting Schedule: https://habitantheritage.org/cpage.php?pt=42
  • FCHSM Members have free shared access to PRDH and GenealogyQuebec, the premier databases for researching Québec Parish and other records.  An individual subscription would cost you a minimum of $111.99 per year in U.S. Funds. See the PRDH and GenealogyQuebec Page on our website: https://habitantheritage.org/cpage.php?pt=47 
  • Our website provides historical and cultural information about New France, as well as Franch-Canadian settlements throughout the Great Lakes and Upper Mississippi Valley. See https://habitantheritage.org/index.php
  • FCHSM Members receive a discount on all of FCHSM's Books. See: https://habitantheritage.org/cpage.php?pt=43
