Yes, I tried

fr.iso.acc.kbd
fr.iso.kbd
fr_CA.iso.acc.kbd

Maybe I need to inform FreeBSD about the layout of my keyboard.
All I get are beeps when I hit the special French accent keys.

This usually means that you are typing 8-bit (i.e. French) characters
at a shell prompt, but you have not set or configured any locale
environment yet, or you have the wrong locale environment.

If this is true, and you are hearing the beeps when typing at a shell
prompt, then please tell us which shell you are using and what you
see by typing:

% locale

This is what I get:

LANG=
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
