trip to Québec

[BlkBearSuz]

I'm planning a genealogy trip to the province of Québec next month. Has anyone here visited Québec, any part of it? I was just wondering if anyone had any advice for me. I've never been at all. A fellow genealogist told me that I should not expect people to be speaking english. I took French in high school, but now of course I remember next to none. I won't have a chance to visit Montreal, that will have to be another trip. I will be mostly going to some small towns, places where my grandmother's family lived. I'm hoping these places will be easy enough to navigate with a map.

St. Gedeon
Beauceviile
St. Benjamin
Ste. Germaine du lac Etchemin
Ste. Justine
Ste. Sabine
St. Fabien de Panet

It'll be fun even if I don't know what I'm doing.

Bonjour, you might want to post this on the Canada Board. You'll find lots of help there!
Have fun on your trip. My eldest son who is 8 this year is taking French Immersion in school, so I expect he will be making an exchange there one day.
