Fugier - Fugere
I am apart of the Fugere-Fugier families from France.From the stories when I was a little girl, I remember being told that there were several (maybe 7) brothers.The name was changed to Fugier shortly after they arrived here in America. Most came to America.I know my great grandfather first settle in the Kansas area, knew of a few Great-Uncles that settled in the Iowa-Kansas and South Dakota.My Great-Grandfather Joe Fugier homesteaded 16 miles east of Buffalo Gap, SD in the 1868.He had three sons/1- daughter, my grandfather Carl, ranched 1/8 mile from original place.I remember hearing of families that were of French/Canadian desent too..........Carl Fugier had 2-sons/2-daughters, My dad is Stanley, him and my mother had 3 daughters/1-son.I am the oldest.Hope this gives some info on this part of the family.If you have any for me, please post/email.Thanks
