Robert- I too am looking for info on the Benoit's from MA. I'm not sure if you saw my other message here or not. We were told that our Benoit ancestors were French-Canadian, but were not 100% sure about anything. The last we knew, the Benoit family we're looking for was still in the Springfield area. Guess it's possible that you could be a realitive. The names we are looking for are Paul Dennis John Benoit or Paul Keith ? Benoit. It's all a little confussing so I won't try to explain, if you read my other message it will give you a little insite. Thanks- Erica Benoit
