Yet More CDs Are Here

By on 26 September 2005 in Steve's Blog

I purchased several more marriage record CDs and have begun to dig thru them to find some of “my people.” I have found a bunch of Saurette people to enter. On a lot of the new CDs I have to also look under Larose. It usually says Saurette-Larose under the S section and Larose-Saurette under the L section. So it would seem that the later descendants used both names – seems like a personal preference to me.

So the next few days will see a flurry of activity on my end followed by more uploads to the site.

Genealogy Workings

By on 14 August 2005 in Steve's Blog

I have gotten some more genealogy completed recently. My latest burst of work was inspired by a couple of e-mails with regards to the Saurette surname. I have always known that there are some Saurette descendants who use the Larose/La Rose surname. It wasn’t always that way, however. To try and clear some things up, I wrote a new page about the name. Read my Dit Larose page to see what I am talking about.

I have been entering more data as well as helping some other people with their research. To that end, I have ordered two more parish CDs. One is for the county of St-Jean (excluding l’Acadie & St-Luc) and the other is for Missiqoui County. I hope to have them this coming week.

I also ordered the newest version of Family Tree Maker. Mine is fairly old, and I do like to upgrade every now and again to stay current. I don’t think there will be anything different on the web-end of things, just on my end at home.

Thank you to all who have contacted me recently with corrections, questions, information, etc. Genealogy is most definitely a team effort, and I wouldn’t have gotten to where I have without the help of a lot of other people out there. Keep the inquiries coming!
