Smith, Librarian I, Genealogy , Lafayette Public Library, announcing that she is the librarian in charge of the genealogy collection at the Lafayette Public Library. Her e-mail address was erroneously listed as: Ismith@state.lib.la.us This is wrong. It is lsmith@state.lib.la.us I typed in an I instead of an l for Lauren. Sorry about that Lauren. ==== ACADIAN-CAJUN Mailing List ==== http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=topics.ethnic.acadian-cajun This is a link to the Acadian-Cajun Message Board at RootsWeb. ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
