I am researching my family ancestry on the Francoise (Francois). My grandmother is Marie Nadeja Vallerie born April 10, 1911 in Pointe Coupee, Louisiana. Her father was Louis aka Jim Vallerie born in 1880. His mother was Marie Francoise born in 1865. Her father was Gustin Francoise born in 1842, married to Idelle who was born in 1843. His father was Severin aka Savarin Francois born in 1813, married to Amelie born in 1820 and Eugenie born in 1830. Please contact me if there is a possible connection. I look forward to hearing from you. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
