Yes, I am right now working on the family tree of Chief Benjamin Paul. I am collecting court documents. I have Chief Benjamin Paul’s marriage certificate and my grandmother’s father’s marriage license Edward and Lucy Paul. I have the information to get the records on the entire Paul family, I just need a little time to get it together. I’m pretty sure I have something on Catherine Paul. I can look up Mary Theresa Pellerin. I have all the information at my disposal I’m just sorry I didn’t do it sooner,
