Delores > Maupassant is the french for Maupassant and Maupin is the French for Maupin. By the way, Maupassant is one of my favorite (Edgard Allen Poe is a kind of english speaking : ) Maupassant). Talking of artists, I have seen on a very old french movie poster, the name Maupi for an actor. It was a movie by Marcel Pagnol (late 40's early 50's). At school I have often been called "Mopin" or worst "Moppin". At the "College Francais", my secondary school, I have been listed for a year as " Maurin", and until recently I have been listed as "Mopin" at McGill University. I think it comes from the fact that many people dont know how to prononce the "au" which is very different from "o", at least in french (I live in Quebec, and half of my family is still in France). The "au" should be prononced a bit like "ow". When I was younger, I was very desperate about the way people would write or prononce my name. I have heard or read often these variants (in decreasing frequence): Mopin, Moppin, Moffet, Maurin, Dauphin, french for "Dolphin" : ), Moquin, and some other less frequent but funnier variants.

In fact it look likes a french speaking person trying its best to prononce the name in "english" ! By I have a question : How do you english speaking folks prononce my french name ? I am very curious ... What should be the standard ? The french prononciation or the english one (if it is different) ?

As I've told you all before that Sally Crosswaithe line is Bill's favorite. He also said that the William Maupin-Mildred White line is the most successful line, having had the most doctors and lawyers in it. According to bill, William White, the father of Mildred White, was an important man in the area. The town of White Hall (it's two words per Bill, but sometimes mistakenly written as one word) was named for him, there is a mountain near Mt.Moriah which was known as Wm White's Mountain, and I think that Bill told me that Wm Maupin married VERY WELL. Bill is such a wealth of information and it's all in his head, he said. Denise

How can Maupissant (sp?) be French fro Maupin--when Maupin IS French? I don't understand that. Love, Denise

I remember at the Williamsburg Reunion, Dorothy had a French teacher there (I think that she was a Maupin) and she said that the correct pronunciation Mo-peen. Also, it was a Williamsburg that I discovered from a speaker that the pin in the name is because they lived in a pine forest. Interesting, no?

Hi Cousins: Forgot to mention this. Brainfade!!!!!!!!! All who have e-mailed to be added to the book list will be. I have a number of them today but will do that tomorrow. Now, I would like to STRESS, yet again, that there WILL BE no supplements. So, the next time I send the latest copy of the list to you all via MAUPIN-L you will note that the + S will not be seen! That is the reason we are going to do the Myfamily.com for each of the children of Daniel Maupin~Margaret Via. Phyllis Bauer's site is becoming quite impressive. I am doing the John Maupin~Frances Dabney section. Tee hee. A cousin, after reading that Denise said Bill Albertson likes our section best is having a lot of fun teasing about it. BTW, he's in my section also. Take care and if you have any questions, please e-mail me privately. Love, Cuz Sandi

Hi Cousins: I haven't been on the net much today. Just had to go out and have my nails done and my hair cut and dyed. Yes, this tall old lady has her hair colored because her hairdresser since the early 1980s says, if I let it go natural I'll look like a skunk coming down the street! :( I've got a white streak down the middle and am willing to put up with it, BUT, not my hairdresser, who is loved and was our oldest son's first love, as she was his! So, I listen to Heidi! Okay, I had a complaint from one of our Maupin cousins today, who said she might just be in a ------ mood. The point was well taken, though. When you e-mail, PLEASE change the subject to fit your e-mail and PLEASE copy and paste any old e-mail you are responding to in a new e-mail so grumps don't have to scroll down and down to get the total message! I sure appreciate that and hope the grump doesn't kill me for passing this on! Well, that grump is a darling and will appreciate this as much as, probably, a lot of other cousins on this list. Your old cuz in California, Sandi :)

Just for something to think about: You know the old fashioned calling cards that people used to give out? Well I have a small collection of them that belonged to my Great-Grandmother, who was a Maupin and one of them is a hand-made, or hand drawn card with the name as "Mr. Moppen". Not sure who "Mr. Moppen" was, but I bet he was a relative somehow, and yet the name is spelled different. AH,and yet another mystery........ Leanna

Moppen looks like it might be a phonetic spelling variation of the French pronunciation. A French woman, about 45 years ago, addressed my mother as Mrs. Maupin and pronounced Maupin as mo-peene. The woman was a nurse in a doctors office and called into the waiting room for Mrs. Mo-peene. She repeated it several times because no one was responding and was even a little irritated about it. Finally, Mom realized she must mean her and she did. (chuckle, chuckle) That was our first clue to a French pronunciation.

Just came across this sit on another list, and thought some of you may be interested in it. Newspapers on Microfilm - Univ. of Oregon at Eugene, OR. It is a very impressive list of newspapers! http://libweb.uoregon.edu/govdocs/micro/papers.htm One of the newspapers is the "Maupin Times" covering the period Sep 2, 1914-Jul 31, 1930. It includes a few newspapers from other states including CA, NV, VA. One of VA's is the "Williamsburg VA Virginia Gazette" for the period Sep 10, 1736-Dec 9, 1780. Sandy and I have other kin, who migrated to OR. We spent a day + at this library, and have obtained several of the microfilm via inter-library loan. I believe most, if not all, of these microfilm are available through inter-library loan, but you will have to check the site for more detail. Hope the above will be of some help!

Hi everyone: Boy, this is about the busiest family list I ever been on! Its GREAT! Just a bit of trivia about an actual census taker's comments. Thought it applies to Phyllis' message. ============== TRIVIA in recognition of the dedicated Census Takers: Quote form a Logan County, Illinois Historical Society newsletter, with the original spelling preserved: "I am a census takers for the city of Bufflow.in 1865, it has become a hard and time consuming job to count all the peephill. There are not many than con do this werk, as it is nesassarie to have inejucashun, wich a lot of pursons still do not have.
