    1. Parents and origin of Rene Landry leJeune
    2. Vincent Landry / RenéLandry In an earlier posting, I mentioned the recent speculation on the relationship of rené Landry, le Cadet (LeJeune) m. Marie Bernard and notary Vincent Landry, chief recruiter for Charles de Menou, Sieur d'Aulnay who was stationed at the Poitevin town of LaChausée. It is believed by some that Vincent Landry was the father of Rene Landry who would have been born at LaChausée and traveled to Acadia as a young batchelor, where he met and married Marie Bernard daughter of ..?.. Bernard and Andrée Guyon at port Royal in ca 1659. In a conversation with Michèle Touret, présidente association "Acadie, Naissance d'un pruple" La Grande Traversée" while attending a supper in New Orleans, where she and a number of visitors from France were touring Louisiana. The tour was sponsored by France-Louisiane/Franco Americaine based in Paris. I have tried to contact Madame Touret to discuss this further, but I have not had a response. Maybe someone who is aquainted with her, or is familiar with this theory of René's parents and his origin, would respond to this posting. I am particularly directing this request to Francois Roux, Ken Breau, Stephen White and /or Ronnie Giles LeBlanc. Sincerely Don Landry don2717@aol.com
