Hi Renee - I asked about the Fazendes. It was my great great grandmother who was Marie Alix Fazende. She was a direct descendant of Jacques Fazende. You also referred to three Conrad books, and I am embarrassed to say I'm not familiar with them. Please email the titles and I will get them immediately. Again, thank you for your wonderful guidance and hard work for all of us.
