Hiya Thomas :-* Joseph Lionel Blanchette March 18, 1930 - March 17, 2005. The Journey: Our family starts out in France, then travels to the area known as New France ( Quebec). In fact, this trees genealogy leads to the family of ,whom most consider, the first family to settle in New France and stay tofarm the land, Louis Hebert and Marie Rollet. Pierre Blanchet married Louis Heberts' great grandaughter, Marie Fournier. It has been said that all Blanchet's & Blanchette'sin America can trace their lineage back to Pierre. Life was hard and each family labored long and hard. Each person had a part to play in the survival of all. I am very proud of my ancestors courage and bravery in there quest to settle the North American continent. SEEKING INFO ON: CHILDREN of EMELIE BLANCHETTE( Dau of Alfred Blanchette and Flavie Berube.) & OSCAR CYR ( Son of Antoine Cyr & Sophie Nadeau.) Please email at address listed above. If anyone finds an error, Please let me know and I will correct it. Not all information has been sourced. I will be adding the sources, but it will take some time. I would also love to hear of any family stories or see pictures of family,if anyone would like to share them with me. Happy Hunting.... Diane
