Joan, I may not have been a member of this forum when you made that list. My name is Helen Lehmann Smith Address: helensm at hot.rr.com (no spaces and @ sign) The names I am researching in New Orleans are: Lehmann, Develle, Martin, Lavergne I can read PDF files. It would be great to find others researching the same surnames.
