FYI--the following is a comment I received from a contact in my paternal ancestors' village in Swabia, south of Stuttgart. I guess it shows how lucky we French Canadians are. "I am astonished that you find the dates of ancestors in France back to the late 1500s. In our region a lot of records have been destroyed during the Thirty Years War (1618 - 1648). Obviously the soldiers of the French Revolution were not as destructive as the Swedish, French and Imperial troups during the war 1618 - 1648 in Germany."

Could Benjamin Christie or Marie Lacoste Christie be related to Louis Fabien Lacoste dit Languedoc (LANGDOC) (Joseph LACOSTE DIT LANGUEDOC and Marie-Anne DYON) or his wife Marguerite Christie (Michel MYNES dit CHRISTIE and Louise PILON) Langdoc? Their daughter, Josephine Langdoc is my great grandmother, born 16 Aug 1862 in St. Anne.

Alan, I agree with Jack but there is some discrepancy about Pierre's date of birth and marriage. Joseph Boudreau and Josette Doxtoder are my direct line. Jeny

St. Anne Lister, The St. Anne City Clerk just passed on to me several sheets of paper, containing a lot of information on the above names and more. One sheet is a copy of births, deaths & marriage out of a Bible. If any one of you are researching any of these names, please contact me. Evidently there was a dentist in the area around the turn of the century by the name of Oliver Brass. and etc. A copy of Certificate of Admission to Asylum for Feeble-Minded Children at Lincoln.

Re: Bastien Family I have a letter which I just read that is from Jesse Sanche Dewar. She talks about the death of a relative, Mr. Bastien who owned a department store in Chicago. His wife died in Turkey while they were on a trip and he died about a year later "of a broken heart". I know this is a connection to the Sanche family and I hope it will help fill in someone's family stories. I have a lot of pictures in an old album of this family.
