Gagnon Family Legacy - Ceramic Mug
Did you know that most people with the Gagnon name came from three sons of Pierre Gagnon (Gaignon) and Renee Roger of Tourouvre, France, who came to New France (Quebec) around 1637? Mathurin, Jean and Pierre Gagnon, along with their wives did much to populate North America with the proud Gagnon surname!
From its inception in the early 1600s until 1760, it was called Canada, New France.
1760 to 1763, it was simply Canada
1763 to 1791 - Province of Québec
1791 to 1867 - Lower Canada
1867 to present - Québec, Canada.
