>From another list I subscribe to.... Thought this was appropriate for all since we've all been here at some time. Enjoy, Nova Getting to the Heart of the Subject: Are You Guilty? By Joan Young joan@volunteer.rootsweb.com Have you ever posted a query on a RootsWeb mailing list or message Board and gotten absolutely no response? Does it seem like everyone But you is getting the answers and feedback they need while you are Shut out in the cold? If so, let's try to pinpoint the reason and Improve your odds of making that RootsWeb connection. THE PROBLEM Most people are constantly on the go. They try to "multitask" to cover A lot of ground as quickly as possible. When we scan our inboxes for new e-mails, or search new message board Posts, we generally don't read every word of every message. Many of us Scan the subject lines and then only read those messages that appeal To us; that is, we read the message if we find a name, location, or Fact in the subject line that attracts our attention. Digest mailing list subscribers, especially, are notorious for quickly Scanning the subjects in the index of a digest before deciding which Messages to read and which to ignore. If we have books at our disposal That allow us to do lookups, we often only read those posts that Mention the topics covered by our books. PITFALLS TO AVOID When we encounter a subject line that says "no subject," or a generic Subject line such as "Looking," "Searching," "Genealogy," "My Family," Or worse yet, "Help!" we tend to disregard the message and move on to The next e-mail. Another red flag for someone perusing a mailing list is the digest Subscriber who merely clicks "reply" to a digest message and leaves The digest as the subject of the reply. I think we'd all admit that a Subject line of "SMITH Digest, Vol 2, Issue 171" isn't exactly telling Us much about the content of the message within. When replying to a Digest message be sure to change the default subject to an informative One. A WELL-WRITTEN QUERY IS MEANINGLESS IF IT IS NEVER READ Quite possibly you have drafted an informative, well-written query With the names of the people you are researching, details of the times And places where they lived, and the information you wanted to learn. However, it may still be lost if no one reads your message because of A poor subject line. Your message body should embellish your subject Line and provide additional details. THE SOLUTION: CREATING A MEANINGFUL SUBJECT LINE TO ATTRACT READERS Provide concise but specific information about the content of your Message. Include the name, location, and time frame of the individuals In your message. Tell us what information you are looking for. In Other words, briefly outline your reason for posting the query. If Your query includes an interesting story about your ancestor, provide The reader with an indication of the story enclosed so that your Message attracts his attention. Some examples of good subject lines follow: --Maiden name needed for Sophie who married John SMITH in 1900 in Chicago, Illinois --Seeking parents of Joseph JONES born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, In 1765 --Looking for Obituary of James JOHNSON who died in Clearwater, Florida, in 1965 --Seeking Descendants of Henricus GEIGER who Died in 1746 in Lembach, Alsace, France --James O'REILLY, born New Jersey, 1830; killed at Battle of Gettysburg, 1863; need marriage information --Morris FRIEDMAN, immigrated in 1900 to Philadelphia, PA, from Russia--Seeking Village of Origin Note: It is typical to capitalize surnames so that they quickly catch Readers''s attention. CONCLUSION The success of your query rests largely on your ability to create a Subject line that will grab readers. Readers will be more likely to Take the time to study your message and consider whether they have an Interest or an answer for you. So stop crying for HELP in the Wilderness and SEARCHING and LOOKING aimlessly, and start providing Specifics in your subject lines. __._,_.___ Messages in this topic (1) Reply (via web post) | Start a new topic Messages | Files | Photos To Unsubscribe email: Candyman-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com Yahoogroups URL: http://www.yahoogroups.com/community/Candyman Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!

This expansion is for consumers and pet owners regarding canned food products and dog food produced by Castleberry Food Company of Augusta, Ga., due to the risk of botulinum toxin. Castleberry is expanding the recall to include all of the following canned products with all "best by" and code dates, and Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers not to purchase or eat any of the canned products listed in the table below. The agency is expanding its warning based in part on FDA test results and information obtained during a joint FDA and U.S. Department of Agriculture inspection of the Castleberry's facility in Augusta, Ga. While the previous recall and the known illnesses are linked to production dates of April 30 to May 22, 2007, the firm has extended the recall to include all products listed irrespective of "best by" date. The firm is cooperating with FDA in the recall of these products and has ceased processing and distribution.

Looking for more information on Jean Blanc who married Denise Fruge in 1838 in LA. I have much on Denise, but a blank wall on ancestors of Jean/John Blanc/LeBlanc. He and Denise are buried in the LeBlanc Cemetery in SW LA near where I live, and I have many descendants for them. Will be grateful for any help. I believe this Jean is a descendant of Daniel LeBlanc, but can't find any documentation on that. Thanks. Ethel Sacker

Are there any reunions in the planning stages for Boudreau and Comeau? Thanks Anne Hendrick

Our next "Mini Used Book Sale" (and probably our last until January) will be held Saturday, July 14th, beginning at 9:30 a.m. at the Louisiana State Archives on Essen Lane in Baton Rouge. This sale will feature miscellaneous genealogy books and books by the late Father Donald Hebert, including several out-of-print volumes of Southwest and South Louisiana Records. After the book sale, lists of leftover books and periodicals will be updated and distributed via e-mail to those who have previously signed up to receive the lists. As an extra bonus to membership, those who are members of Le Comite' will receive the lists one day prior to all others. To check on the status of your membership, please contact me at j.a.riffel@att.net. Judy Riffel Treasurer Le Comite des Archives de la Louisiane P.O. Box 1547 Baton Rouge, LA 70821

Periodically, I've seen references to the Census of September 2, 1771, but couldn't find any lists. The mystery has been solved! Governor O'Reilly ordered a census on September 14, 1769, but it wasn't completed until 1771 [this would explain some differences in ages between the 1766 and 1769 census] The registers were compiled into a report dated September 2, 1771. This is a very interesting report because it shows that the Acadians represented a significant percentage of the total population. The census is in the Annual Report of the American Historical Association 1945 in four volumes, Volume II, Spain in the Mississippi Valley, 1765-1794, Part I, The Revolutionary Period, 1765 - 1781, edited by Lawrence Kinnaird, p. 196. I've created a pdf file that is linked from my Arrival of the Acadians page at the url below. The direct url is also provided.

Just a small note, if you are in the neighbourhood, attend the July 17th talk, the church is fantastic, large wooden, newly restored outside, faboulous church. Archectural wonder. one of the best churches on the Island.

This series of six talks will be held on Tuesday evenings at 7:30 p.m. during July and August. Three of the presentations will be given in French and three in English. The first talk, which will be given in French on July 10, will revolve around the former small rural Acadian schools. Three retired teachers, Orella Arsenault, Édouard Blanchard and Eileen Chiasson Pendergast, will share their memories of these rural schools, which had an important role to play in community life until the 1960s. The July 17 talk will focus on restoring Miscouche's St. John the Baptist Church. It will start off with a guided tour of the church with Father Albin Arsenault, a dynamic priest and heritage enthusiast. Participants will then head over to the Acadian Museum for an English presentation on the history of the church. The series of talks will continue in French on July 24, and will focus on the experiences of Island Acadians who studied in the province of Quebec. Guest speakers will be Father Éloi Arsenault, Berthe Blanchard and Edmond Richard. All three pursued their studies in French in Quebec, in the 1950s and 60s, thanks to scholarships obtained by the SSTA from numerous Québec institutions. On July 31, the English presentation given by Georges Arsenault and Doug Sobey will focus on surveyor Samuel Holland and the Acadians. The guest speakers will explain the information that can be gathered about 18th century Island Acadians by studying the maps and written documents made by Samuel Holland and his team when they divided the Island in 67 lots in 1765. The Acadians and World War II will be the theme of the August 7 talk. Guest speakers will be two war veterans, Albert Arsenault and Gussie Gallant. The talk will concentrate on Acadian participation in this great conflict, as well as on the impact of war on the Island's Acadian families and communities. This presentation will be given in French. The Tuesday Talks will end on August 14 with an English presentation by historian Earle Lockerby. An untiring researcher, he has published many well-documented articles on the history of the Acadians of Île Saint-Jean. Lockerby will talk of his discoveries concerning the first years of the founding of the colony. The Acadian Museum is proud to present these talks which will help increase awareness about several aspects of Acadian life on Prince Edward Island. Refreshments will be served.

On January 26th, 1861 - Louisiana secedes from the Union and joins the Confederate States. The Acadians were not too anxious to get involved in the Civil War. They saw themselves as a people distinct from “les américains”, (“The Americans”) and regarded the war as someone else’s fight, calling it “la querre des Confédérés”, ("the Confederate’s war"). ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Are any of the Landrys out there related to Amos Landry who lived in Moncton and was married to Helen MacDougall? He married in 1949. I would love to know his ancestry. He was married to my Dad's first cousin whom I met recently in Moncton. margaret Brennan >From: Don2717@aol.com >To: ACADIAN-CAJUN-L@rootsweb.com, LANDRY-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [Acadian-Cajun] Origin of the Acadian Landrys >Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2007 13:24:55 EDT > > >On the origin of the Acadian Landrys: >".....
