$19.95 each, USA Funds. Click

lineage-linked genealogical
information on between 1,000+ to 40,000+ individuals, as noted below. Every

available and, when known, Acadian Native Indians are identified.

database, each CD contain all pertinent Acadian-Cajun historical texts from
my Acadian Genealogy Homepage web site, as well as a bunch of Acadian songs
(with lyrics).

"A few years ago,
we took a trip to visit Nova Scotia and new Brunswick. While there
we purchased your Acadian-Cajun
Family Trees CD. By using the information contained on this CD,
I was able to increase mine and my wife's ancestry listing from 400+
to over 1700 names which comprise 800+ families. I highly recommend
this CD to anyone who is Cajun of Acadian descent and who is serious
about tracing his or her roots." DWL of Louisiana.

Many years ago, I
learned an important lesson from my wonderful father! He told me, "Yvon,
the more you GIVE in life, the more you will RECEIVE!" I derive most
of my enjoyment from this great genealogy hobby, through the SHARING of
information. And so, it is exactly for this reason that WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF THE GRAPHIC IMAGES (MOST ESPECIALLY THE FAMILY CRESTS), NO PORTION OF
THIS WEB SITE IS COPYRIGHTED BY ME! Having said that however, I do
expect you to ASK before reproducing any/all portions of this site and,
if I agree to your request, I expect that you will respect (and recognize)
any/all 3rd party author rights, as I have done. As well, remember that
commercial use is always PROHIBITED without the expressed written consent
of the original author. Once I've agreed, please feel free to copy and distribute
any/all of the historical Acadian information on this Web Site which, in
effect, is/was created for the benefit of all my wonderful Acadian-Cajun
cousins and the great many friends I have found on the 'Net. Needless to
say, I would of course request and appreciate if the usual credits were
provided me when using the information, by listing my name, e-mail address,
and the URL address of this Web Site. Many thanks dear friends, enjoy...
and God Bless! Yvon.

In my 20+ years of Acadian research, I
have always done my very best to be as accurate and politically-correct
as possible and I hope that, in some small way, I have been able to
assist others and "make a difference"... and, as my father
would say... "you know you've made a difference when other authors
quote you as an 'authority', in their historical publications."
Thanks to all... you know who you are.
