I am beginning also to search for my Bouchard roots. I noticed some similarities in your message - that the family was concentrated in the RI area, but originated in Quebec. This is also true of the Bouchard family I am connected to. My Bouchard grandmother told stories of large family reunions that her father, Adelard Joseph Bouchard(originally from Montreal, Quebec), used to attend in Providence, RI.
I assume this would have taken place during the early 1900's - and I believe he died in 1935. He supposedly had "75 cousins" at these reunions. I wonder if there is some connection to your Bouchard family in RI?
A.Joseph Bouchard's descendants are currently situated more or less in S.E.Mass,
near Attleboro(on the RI border). We have a family tree of all of A.Joseph Bouchard's descendants(there are many!)compiled by his late daughter-in-law Alveda(sp)Bouchard. I am seeking the family link to ancestors/relatives in Quebec, as well as anyone familiar with the Bouchard family reunions held in or near Providence,RI. I'd appreciate any info you have to share. I've had no luck with any Internet searching as of yet!
