The French Connection
Though I have certainly  of the accuracy of this image, the Male Lineage I am tracing is as follows:

France
Gabriel Picard (c. 1597-1660)
Hugues Picard (c. 1618-1707 ) Emigrated to New France/Canada)

Ville-Marie/LaChine/Dorval
Jean-Gabriel Picard (c. 1669-1723)
Antoine Picard (c. 1700-1777)
Antoine Picard (c. 1735-c. 1795?)
Paul Picard (c. 1770-1845?)

Chateauguay and the South Bank of the St. Lawrence River
Isaac Picard (1817-1881)

The descendants of Issac Picard who remained in Quebec which includes all of his other children.

Their descendants down to the present day.

St. Louis de Gonzague

Alfred Picard (1846-1909 Emigrated to Eastern Michigan)

Saginaw, Michigan
Louis A. Picard (1883-1952) and his brothers and sisters including Frank A. Picard (1889-1963 and Joseph Picard (1892-1975)

And the Families of Frank and Alex Picard (The present generation). Vincent Picard, Theol, Beatrice and Helen Picard and their Descendents.

Note: Though the approach is patrilineal it is not patriarchal. Tracing through sons is easier particularly since I am interested in the Picard family legacy.
