Here is a brief biography of Louis: http://genealogiestfulgence.com/biographie_pionniers.htm “Louis Mackay et son épouse Adèle Bergeron, tous deux oroginaires de Baie-Saint-Paul, se marièrent dans la paroisse de Saint-Alexis-de-Grande-Baie le 21 janvier 1850. Aussitôt après leur mariage, le couple vint s'établir à Saint-Fulgence sur une terre, située en bas du Remous, qui occupait une superficie de cent cinquante acres en 1861.
