Hey everybody,
So I've been interested in 1800s Quebec for a while, ever since I learned that I have a French-Canadian ancestor who was relatively famous in the Lower Canada Rebellion (Pierre-Theophile Decoigne, to be precise)
Problem is, I don't know where to look to find good English-language sources on pre-rebellion Quebec (1600s, 1700s, and 1800s) or on the rebellion itself. I'd like to know more about all of it, especially what life was like back then in that particular area.
One problem is that I don't have too many disposable funds, so an expensive book about Quebec would not be a good idea, and I'd prefer free sources on the Internet. Though again, I don't know where to start besides Wikipedia.
