It really was funny, my husband (and his family) always said there were *two* sets of Beaubouefs and we weren't related to the other set. When I got into genealogy and found the Beaubouef book I soon realized that the "two set" theory came from the two complete families that Hypolite had from two wives. My husband's family now knows that we are indeed related to every Beaubouef in and around Louisiana and probably on the planet!!! Peggy
