Among the Society's purposes is to promote and support genealogy in Quebec for those that primarily use the English language.

The society will also loan (by mail) many materials and books to members who live a long distance from their library. They will also do limited look-ups in their reference only collection for members. Many of the sources listed on the Frampton Irish webpage are contained in their library and publications for sale. http://www.raysplace.org/index.php?action=artindex This webpage has a good article on the historical background of the Irish in Canada. http://www.distribute.net/~louises/malachie/malachy.html This is a webpage by fellow Frampton Irish researcher Louise Smith.

Specific mention is made of the Antrim place names of Ballycastle, Ballymena, and Ballymoney. Therefore, this website may be useful in confirming the origins of some of the Frampton Irish. The website does have several free searches and databases. However, much of the records can only be accessed through a paid subscription to the site. http://www.ballymoneyancestry.com This website offers a free, on-line, database of 55,000 individual family history records for Ballymoney and district since 1669. Since Ballymoney was specifically mentioned as a possible origin of Frampton Irish settlers in Histoire de la Paroisse de Saint Malachie it may be useful to Frampton Irish researchers. http://www.rootsweb.com/~qcchaudi/ This is the GenWeb website for the Chaudiere-Appalaches region.
