Sorry for the typo. Selectment should be Selectmen. Of course, "forced labor" is a more appropriate term than "enslavement" but the end result was the same for the duration of the Indenture!

Hi Andy, You are correct and that's why there are so many various spellings of names - many of the Acadians did not know how to read or write so they couldn't spell their names. Writing names by sound is how we got the Soundex Sytem for the U.S. Census Records. Of course I don't know how this worked with the Spanish priests - they likely had a better command of the language but who knows.

Hi From entries found in the Southwest Louisiana Church & Civil Records [Hebert] it appears that Abraham POIRIER [parents not identified] must have remarried. At the time of the marriage of his first child, [(SM Ch.: v.4, #6), Pierre POIRIER (Abraham & dec. Ana BENIBO)] m 1 Sept. 1787 BABINEAUX, Scholastique - of Canada (dec. Charles BABINO & Ana GUILBEAU), his spouse is shown to be Anna BABINEAU. However at the time of the births of some of his grandchildren, his spouse is shown to be Agnes LANOUX; example:(SM Ch.: v.6, #402] POIRIER, Scholastique, (Pierre - of La Pointe & Scholastique BABINEAU) b. 28 Aug. 1805, bt. 7 June 1807 Pats: Abraham POIRIER & Agnes LANOUX; Mats: Louis BABINEAU & Anne GUILBEAU; Spons: Julien POIRIER & Julie DUGAS. Fr. Gabriel ISABEY ). I have not been able to find a death date for Anne Babineau nor a marriage record for Agnes Lanoux. Has anyone else encountered these records and offer any help? Thanks in advance, Andy Scott

Andy, According to Stephen White, Abraham Poirier married Agnes Belliveau, widow of Honore Lanoue. SWLR shows that Pierre who married Scholastique Babineaux was the son of Abraham and Ana Benibo. Bebibo is shown only twice in the SWLR - for the marriage entries of Pierre and Scholastique. It is apparently a misspelling of Belliveau. The entries for the baptismal records of the children of Pierre and Scholastique apparently picked up the widowed surname of Ana [Agnes] which was Lanoue [Lanoux].

A few months ago, there was discussion on the list regarding the ships from the Acadian Exile Period. I've located a great book entitled A History of Ships and Seafaring by Courtlandt Canby. It is a 113-page hardcover book with excellent photos and includes ships from Acadian Exile period. See my Books page at http://www.thecajuns.com/books.htm Stanley LeBlanc http://www.thecajuns.com

Hi Lucy Not sure what happened last night after playing around some I got just the sidebar on my screen and saved that as a favorite. Maybe that got things lined up again. No expertise on web sites here so I am always shooting in the dark. Anyway this morning I went to the web site to do as you suggested and the whole web site including side bar appeared before I even had a chance to refresh. But thanks for the suggestion I will remember to do that in the future. Jan And thanks a million times for all the information you provide us free of charge and all of your time that you donate to maintaining this site free of charge.

I have been adding a lot of new information and moving things around. So if you have visited recently then the cache of your browsers might be holding that information and could well show the old pages before changes took place.. I myself have to refresh each time I either add or move information. I have set up a domain for everything that I have for Quebec and will continue adding to that portion of my web site. Meanwhile I have been adding to the Acadian portion of the site as well. I still have to add the genealogy portion that I have of my French-Canadian ancestors. I have also set up a domain for information received from Stephen White [with his permission]. I have lots of information to add to that section as well. The item entitled: "Pennsylvania Gazette" at the sidebar actually contains articles that were in the Gazette during the French & Indian War and there were articles pertaining to the Deportation of the Acadians, etc.. very interesting read. I have more to post- [FYI: these articles are posted with permission received from the American Philosophical Society of Philadelphia where I have done quite a bit of research when I have visited Philadelphia. The APS was founded by Benjamin Franklin and all of his writings and correspondence are part of their holdings and more. Enjoy!

Hi Jan.. I just checked my site and everything is working fine including the link at the bottom that you mention will not work for you. Actually, there is no reason why you should not be able to see the sidebar on my site at the present time. I have removed the java script sidebar and it is now plain text. I would suggest refreshing your browser when you go to my site again and that might work. However,, if you it still does not work, it is your computer or browser and one of the programs you've installed is likely conflicting. You might want to check your browser settings - ;o) Lucie LeBlanc Consentino Acadian Ancestral Home www.acadian-home.org ACGS Drouin Primary Records www.acgs.org -----Original Message----- From: jan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2006 10:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ACADIAN-CAJUN] Can someone help I cannot see the sidebar or search box on Lucie's site.
