  La Société des Filles du roi

  et soldats du Carignan

Welcome to the SFRSC

La Société des Filles du roi et soldats du Carignan, Corp. (SFRSC) is a non-profit corporation dedicated to the women and men who played a major role in the growth and settlement of New France.



If you have French-Canadian ancestry you are likely to have one or more King’s Daughters (Filles du roi) or Carignan soldiers among your ancestors. In fact, you might find that your ancestral lines include many of these women and men! 

You are invited to explore these pages to learn more about the King's Daughters and the Regiment Soldiers, the pioneer seventeenth-century emigrants from France. We also provide links to other genealogical resources for those with French Canadian ancestry. Our aim is to support individuals in their efforts to explore their family history through research and in their use of sound genealogical practices.

Be sure to check the New France by the Numbers and our public page of sample articles from our journals. Want to write for the journal? Be sure to review the Guidelines for Articles.

Full membership is for direct descendants of a King's Daughter and/or a soldier of the Carignan Regiment. Applicants must provide documentation showing the connection of each generation to the next generation in their lineage. 

Associate Membership is for those persons still researching their lineage or who have no direct ancestor but are interested in this subject.
