Re:location St Ann Church - 2007/12/09 08:00 There is a St. Anne Church in French Village, Mo. The location has been a bit confusing to me because on the LDS films of church records it is listed with Ste. Genevieve Church, but the online listings I find for it claim it to be in St. Francois County. My Missouri Gazateer shows it to be in St. Francois County, about half way between Bonne Terre (St. Francois) and Bloomsdale (Ste. Genevieve). The St. Francois County GenWeb page gives a link to a partial cemetery listing which is this, and leads to Tom Stevenson's website.

The county lines may have shifted since the early 1800's or more likely, the term Ste. Genevieve was used loosely to cover a very broad area in the early days.

My modern day gazateer has no listing for Little Canada - altho I have also seen it in early church records - maybe Little Canada is French Village.

Re:location St Ann Church - 2008/02/13 03:43 Hi, I am brand new here, but as I was reading this post I wondered if Little Canada might not refer to either side of the Mississippi at the time it was all French territory settled by Canadiennes. If so, and there is not the information you are looking for in French Village, try St. Joseph church in Prairie du Rocher, Illinois. The earliest church in the area was St. Anne, at Fort Chartres just across the river. It no longer exists, but all the church records went to St. Joseph.
