This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

Somewhere I've seen the hyphenated name Durand-Ruelle, is that the museum in France? Where is Doeuil-sur-le-Mignon? There must be some interesting stories about Jean Durand and his wife, as well as their descendants. Hope you will send in some more of your Durand, Paquette, Boswell family's history to the FDL list, maybe with a few pictures it would be a good attachment to the FDL Co Website? Tracy would find just the right spot for it! Another group that would surely be interested is the FCGW [French Canadian/ Acadian Genealogists of Wisconsin]. The editor of the group's excellent Quarterly, Joyce Banachowski, is very knowledgeable and helpful. You can reach her through the website: <http://www.fcgw.org/> Thanks, Tom & Barb G
