Hi, As I'm sure most of you know the latest "New Orleans Genesis" is out. It's Volume XLIV, Number 175, July 2005. For the sake of those who may not subscribe... I am listing the only two Degruy listings. I'll also post this in the "News" section of the Degruy Family Collaboration Web Site. In the section under St. Augustine Church Baptisms, Book 7 [1899-1912]: De Gruy [Verloin], Camile M page 191 DeGruy, Lucille Marie page 281 As you know we would have to pay $12 per record to obtain the actual records from the Archdiocese; so I'm afraid unless the members of Degruy-l are willing to "tithe" in order to build up a fund dedicated to Archdiocesan record retrieval, we won't be uploading these to the web site as we do the far less expensive Louisiana Archives records. Another possible way to get the records would be if each person closely related to various Degruys in these records would foot the bill: order the records of their close relatives, scan them and submit them. In this way we would be able to put more Archdiocesan records on the site. The Archdiocesan records can be very valuable because frequently on a baptismal record, for example, the names of the grandparents will be listed, making it easier to establish the connections between generations. Interested to hear the ideas of others on these matters. Renee
