The time line is close but not the same. The area is closeby i.e Vaudreuil-Soulanges county. The site is http://www.chez.com/jpmenard/principale.html Look for the Index des familles link in the left column, then find Menard. It may be another Basil but I suspect one that is related to yours. I suggest you contact the site-owner with this problem. Note to all: This Menard family DOES NOT descend from the Menards dit Saintonges line. It is as far as I can tell completely different (unless there is a linkage in France). This line descends from Menard dit Vive L'Amour. To find my descendance find Rozon in the links. -- Je vous prie d¹agréer, Monsieur, Madame, mes sincères salutations. Regards, Richard Rozon B.A. Journalism 94 Concordia University, Montreal.
