    1. Part 3 Rootsweb maillist closing March 2, 2020 Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA Project
    2. Paul L LeBlanc
    3. Sorry for the repeat many did not get through -----Original Message----- From: Paul L LeBlanc The DNA-Genealogy-History.com Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA Project DNA testing is adding substantially to the body of research available for all Acadian families, and because of the efforts of individual testers, we are now able to trace Acadian lineages, successfully and confidently, back to their earliest roots -- in the 17th and 18th centuries! Our Acadian AmerIndian Ancestry DNA project at Family Tree DNA includes Y chromosome DNA (Y DNA) results for male Acadian ancestors and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) results for female Acadian ancestors. The project welcomes all Acadian descendants, and descendants of allied families who married into Acadian lines, as well as AmerIndian descendants associated with the eastern Canadian First Nations people. All descendants of Acadian and related allied and First Nations family lines are welcome to join our Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project including those who have taken the Family Finder test at Family Tree DNA or transferred their autosomal test resuts to Family Tree DNA from other testing companies. We encourage any male who carries an Acadian surname and descends from an Acadian family, or allied family who married into an Acadian line, to take the Y DNA test, in addition to the Family Finder autosomal DNA test, and all people who descend directly matrilineally (from your mother to her mother to her mother on up the tree) to an Acadian or a First Nations ancestor who married into an Acadian family to have an mtDNA test and join the project. One of the greatest tragedies of the Acadian expulsion that began in 1755 is the irrevocable loss of family. We, as family researchers, have problems in finding legitimate records for that period as in many instances our family records were destroyed. One of the greatest benefits of Y and mtDNA DNA testing with our Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project is that we are able to "see through" the gaps in our family lines tracing back to the time of the Acadian expulsion, and find lost links that connect us back to our earliest ancestors.  By having the Y DNA and mtDNA test results of Acadian descendants in-hand, along with available genealogy information,  we are able to trace our most precious lineages from father to father, mother to mother, all the way back to the first Acadian settlement in Port Royal, Nova Scotia. Through advanced Y DNA testing, we've been able to pinpoint specific genetic markers that differentiate descendants of specific Acadian surname lines from all others. That our genes did not "forget" who we are and where we came from is perhaps one of the most significant research findings of our Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project, and with our Y, mtDNA, and autosomal DNA test results, we are re-connecting and finding our way "home" in the truest sense of the word. Our astounding abilities to reconnect, by way of matching DNA test results, may be the best "just desserts" ever to be served upon those whose grand scheme was to split us asunder and thereby cause us to fail.  Our genetic, cultural, historical, and genealogical "staying power"  is why we have people from Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Gaspe, Montreal, Ontario, Quebec and westward, Louisiana, Maine, New York, New Hampshire, Michigan, Maryland, Virginia, Texas, California, France, and everywhere else participating in "our" Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project. The "Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project" is therefore open to all of our "legacy" cousins, who carry our celebrated Acadian and Amerindian project surnames and lines, our "allied families,"  (including Romeros, Oubres, Smiths, and all others) who married into Acadian families and have become a part of the greater Acadian / Cajun family tree, the "collateral cousins," who are related to Acadians and are still trying to figure out how, and those special cousins who, as Cousin Paul has stated so eloquently, "were raised at an Acadian / Cajun hearth" -- by the fireplace or in the kitchen of a loving (and very wise!) Acadian / Cajun mother or grandmother who never used the words "biological," "half," "step," "foster," or "adopted" when she talked about all of her children and grandchildren. You can view the Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project information here: https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/acadian-amerindian/about/background You can see the Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project's Y DNA participants here to determine if your male ancestral line is represented: https://www.familytreedna.com/public/AcadianAmerIndian?iframe=yresults You can see the Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project's mitochondrial participants here to determine if our female ancestral line is represented: https://www.familytreedna.com/public/AcadianAmerIndian?iframe=mtresults For questions about joining the Acadian Amerindian Ancestry DNA project, contact the project administrators: Deadra Doucet Bourke at [email protected]  Marie Rundquist at [email protected]  Roberta Estes at [email protected]  (Additional information can be found at https://dna-genealogy-history.com/travel-by-ancestry/travel-by-ancestry-to-the-acadian-and-cajun-roots-recovery-and-rescue-with-2-new-google-groups)

    2. Paul L LeBlanc
    3. Sorry for the repeat many did not get through -----Original Message----- From: Paul L LeBlanc We invite anybody and everybody with an interest in genealogy, family history, and Acadian/Cajun history, culture & traditions to join one or more of our Google Groups. You don’t have to have been raised by an Acadian/Cajun Mother or Grandmother to join our “Research Family”. We firmly believe anybody with any kind of connection to Acadie/Acadia, Louisiana, and/or any early French settlers in North America can benefit from and contribute to our Groups. There are two types of Google Groups: Public, where everybody can see all the posts/items on the site, and Private, which only allows members to see what's on the site. It’s possible to simultaneously join several Public and Private groups and have the capability to send one post to every Group you’ve subscribed to. Regardless of whether the group you join is Public or Private, there are two ways to use it to receive replies to your inquiries.  You can use it like a “Mail list”, where you will immediately receive all posts via individual email or a daily summary containing all posts.  Or you can use it like a message board, where you will only receive copies of replies to your inquiries,.  You can choose your option from the “settings” menu once you’ve joined the group, or ask the Group Administrator to make the setting for you. Within our “Research Family”, we have a number of different Groups that are a mixture of Public and Private. Since it may seem a little overwhelming to determine which Group or Groups you would like to join, here is a quick summary of each one within the "family”. To get more information on these groups, go to their listed website(s). (Where no site is listed, contact the POC for more information.) If the Group is Public, you can submit a request to join through the site; if Private, request to join from the listed Point of Contact (POC). Please note this is only a partial list; more family and Parish groups may be added over the next few weeks. Our Acadian Roots (OAR), https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ouracadianroots . A Public group. For research on all Acadian ancestors back to their arrival in North America. Also very beneficial if you have Cajun or Colonial Louisiana ancestors ancestors (e.g., Creole, Islenos, John Law’s “Germans”, etc.). If your research includes any Acadian ancestors, regardless of where they were born, or ancestors primarily from the "Acadiana Triangle" (i.e., Lake Charles to Alexandria to Grand-Isle), this is probably the Group you should join first. (POC: [email protected] ) Our Louisiana Roots (OLR), https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ourlouisianaroots . A Public group. As its name implies, focuses on all Louisiana ancestors. Very beneficial if your starting point is your ancestors who came to or were born in Louisiana. (POC: [email protected] ) Our Metis Roots (OMR).  A Private group. Research on Western Metis, Coureurs-de-Bois, Amerindian, and other early French settlers. A Special Interest Group (SIG) that focuses on the Eastern metis.  This group covers a wide range of research and discussions of Canadian genealogy.  Because the Metis and their history can be rather complicated, we will go more in depth on this group’s focus in a different post. (POC: [email protected] ) Our Acadian Amerindian Ancestry Family Tree DNA Project, https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/acadian-amerindian/about/background , is not a Google Group, but part of our “research family”. The Acadian Amerindian Ancestry Family Tree DNA project website hosts the DNA test results of individuals who are direct-line descendants of the original Acadian (and other European nation) settlers, as well as the Amerindians who married Acadians and other Coureurs-de-Bois. Please see our other post for an in-depth description of this site’s primary focus and projects. (POC: Marie Rundquist, [email protected] ) Our Petitpas Roots, A Private group. This group discusses and shares information regarding the Petitpas surname and its numerous variations worldwide. A SIG that focuses on Claude Petitpas, who married Catherine Bugaret about 1658 in Acadia, and his descendants. Also researches/discusses families allied to his family. (POC: [email protected] ) Our Hotard Roots, a Private group. The goal of this group is to discuss and share information regarding the Hotard surname and its variations in any place and at any time, e.g., Autard, Otarte, Otard.  A SIG that focuses on Mathieu Autard (Hotard) of Bonnieux, France, m 1772 Marie Genevieve Bourgeois, St-Jean-Baptiste LA.  There is a Hotard Roots website on Spokt, https://spokt.com/hubs/934319  where you can upload graphics, images, photos, etc. about the Hotards. (POC:  [email protected] ) Our DeGruy Roots, a Private group. This group discusses and shares information regarding the DeGruy surname and its numerous variations. Also researches/discusses families allied to the DeGruy family.  A SIG that focuses on immigrant ancestor Antoine Valentin Verloin DeGruy (+1759) (There are many variations to Antoine's name: Antoine, Jean-Baptiste, Valéntin Du Mésnil Fouchard, Verloin de Gruy or Degruys Verloin, Lord Dumenil Fouchard, and Ecuyer de la Folie [Officer of the Troups of the Navy of this Colony].) Antoine married Marie Therese Aufrere, daughter of Antoine Aufrere and Marie Mathurine Guillemet dit LaLande, in 1743 at Fort de Chartres. There is a DeGruy Family Collaboration Site at Spokt where you can upload graphics, images, and/or photos https://spokt.com/hubs/934096 (POC: [email protected] ) Our Evans-Richard Roots, a Private group. This group will focus only on those Evanses who descend from our immigrant ancestor, Richard Evans [+1703] and his son, Samuel Evans [+1770], and their allied families. This Evans family migrated from Maryland to Pennsylvania to Kentucky to Ohio. The New Orleans branch also included Evanses who had lived in Indiana, Ohio and Louisiana. Our Evans-Richard Roots has a site on Spokt, https://spokt.com/hubs/934188  where you can upload graphics, images, and/or photos. (POC:  [email protected] ) Lousiana Orleans Parish Roots (LAOrleans) A Private group. For any genealogical pursuits involving Orleans Parish and surrounding parishes, as many people came through the port of Orleans and moved to other parishes. If your ancestors lived at any time in Orleans Parish, you may want to join this group. (POC: Marsha, [email protected] ) Breaux du Monde Family Newsletter. For anybody with Breau/Breaux/Braud ancestors in their family line.  Contact [email protected] for a full copy of the newsletter & how to join the association.  As Cousine Gayle Breaux likes to say in her newsletter, "Y'all come pass a good time!” Les Guédry et Petitpas d'Asteur is the family association of the Guédry and Petitpas families that descend from Claude Guédry & Marguerite Petitpas and from Claude Petitpas & Catherine Bugaret.  We have members from throughout the United States and Canada.  We have two websites for our family..  The first website below is our family website with all back issues of our family newsletter "Generations" as well as a lot of other information about the family.  The second website is the beginning our genealogical database on the Guédry family. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~guedrylabinefamily http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~guidryrm/Guedry-Labine In addition, we have a Facebook Page at: https://www.facebook.com/Les-Guédry-dAsteur-Guidry-Labine-Labean-Jeddry-Geddry-Petitpas-387769648496/     It can be accessed when on Facebook by typing guidry-labine in the search box at the top of the page. Everything we have available is free to anyone interested. On 5 October 2020 we will have a Reunion with the Hébert and Breaux families at Rayne, LA - the ballroom of the Rayne Civic Center just off I-10.  It will be from 9 am until 3:30 pm with a couple of presentations, a Cajun musician or two, displays and lots of time for meeting and greeting cousins.  We're having a master Cajun chef prepare a big jambalaya dinner with black-eyed peas and will supply the fixings (desserts, salads, breads, drinks).  All is FREE and everyone with an interest in any of our families is welcome to attend.  Our latest issue of "Generations" has all the details. Martin Guidry 6139 North Shore Drive Baton Rouge, LA  70817 225-571-9726 (cell) [email protected] Les Guédry et Petitpas d'Asteur, Inc. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~guedrylabinefamily http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~guidryrm/Guedry-Labine The Grand Réveil Acadien 2020 (GRA2020), October 3-11.  GRA2020 will once again gather Acadians from all corners of the US and the world, as well as strive to educate everybody about our culture. This year will be a gathering of a family so big that Acadians from around the globe, many who speak different languages, work in different fields, and have different traditions but still feel like they belong to the same family, will meet to celebrate the historic ties that connect them all. Young and old will get to meet long-lost family members, hear about how their ancestors lived as well as how their cousins live now, share stories of their families’ successes and heartaches in the places they settled, and watch and hear the music and art that has come from these cultural roots. It will be a mix of entertainment, education, connection, and enrichment. The planned activities highlight how our history has made the Cajuns and Acadians who they are today, and how they have impacted North America.  Other planned events include a massive reunion of all the Louisiana participants at the Université Sainte-Anne French Immersion, a Tintamarre in Lafayette on October 11th and many other community activities in cities and towns throughout southern Louisiana. For further details, go to the GRA2020 Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/GrandReveilAcadien/ , which is updated constantly. They will also soon have an active website at https://www.louisianeacadie.com/  If/when other groups join our research family, we will send out notices of their name, their focus, and their POCs. On behalf of all of our POCs, we hope to hear from you soon!

Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.  Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb ...”   Upon receiving this notice we immediately began searching for another system that could accommodate the mailing list format we use on Rootsweb.  After much research, we determined Google Groups was our best option.  As such, we have created two new public Google groups:  “Our Acadian Roots” and “Our Louisiana Roots”, which between them will consolidate 77 Acadian and Cajun, 10 uniquely Louisiana, many French surname, and 32 Louisiana Parish sites.  Once up and running, we will “connect” these groups with our sister group (the private “Our Metis Roots” group) to form a consolidated Genealogy research/discussion group that focuses not only on Acadian and Louisiana ancestors, but also on "All Early French in North America".  This will enable us to continue to post questions, make comments, etc. etc., on our genealogy after having done what research we could in the Rootsweb list archives (which, from what I can gather, will still be available for the near future.)  In addition, we will soon add other Acadian, Louisiana, and French surname related research groups, which will expand the number of people we can talk to and bounce our ideas off of.   Come visit our groups' new websites and take a look at the new format:   https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ouracadianroots   or   https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ourlouisianaroots   If you would then like join , just click "apply to join group" box located at the top of the page.  If you have any problems, contact me at [email protected]   I will soon be sending invitations to as many of you as possible, asking if you would like to join the new Google Groups.  Please think about all these changes and decide if you want to continue your research by utilizing our new Groups.  If you want to join, simply click the “Join This Group” link at the bottom of the e-mail, and this will start the process to get you registered in the new Group.   For those of you who want to join but have not received an invitation, please e-mail me directly at [email protected] and I will add you to one or both of our discussion groups on Google.    One other note  If you would like to create your own "OUR ______ ROOTS" Google Group for your family or Parish/County contact me at [email protected] .  I may have some ideas to help you get started.  In addition, we may be able to add your new group to our new and expanding research family, more info about which will soon be forthcoming.   Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about this.  Regardless of your final decision, I wish you luck with your ancestor hunting!   Paul L LeBlanc [email protected]

I can send you both the deeds that were found by the banks attorney in the investigation for the clean title. And any of the involved attorneys info so that you could contact them about the issue, if you had any questions. I have only a few weeks to resolve this, otherwise I lose the buyer and have to pay two mortgages, as I did not think I would have this issue.

(the City of Fitchburg assessors map shows it as 2 lots which include lot 47) What seems to have happened is that when Vautours bought it lot 47 was not included, because they messed up recording the deed. The deed that should have been lot 47, but said lots 1 and 2 (which were sold to Lous Leblanc a few years prior to Henry's purchase), so though lots could not be transferred to Vautours, because Ovila did not still own them to sell to Henry, and no one made the correction to the lots on the Deed that said Henry purchased lot 47. (lots 1 and 2 are a on another street, Maryland Ave.). Also because lot 47 is so small it was overlooked. The Vautour's were foreclosed on (due to some unfortunate things) and I bought it from Fae Mae, but it only included lots 45 and 46, which the title came up clean for those two lots and no one looked i! nto lot 47, and I did not know that, that part of the yard was a separate lot, because of the size, the maps only showed two lots (not three), and it had always been used by the Vautours, when they had owned the house. (I grew up approximately one mile away). So this was not caught until now. Sorry to be so winded, but not so simple to explain.
