Thank you so much, that was fast!!! I married a Doiron and moved to Lafayette and I don't speak any French after over 25 years of living here. And believe me ... the fuzzy's are here too....
I would appreciate it if you find out any information to please let me know. There was the BiCentenial in Brusly and my Doiron friend here mentioned Kirkland Doiron was related to him somehow. When I saw your posting, I thought I'd give it a try. There will be a big Doiron Reunion in 2010 or 2012.. not exactly sure, but it will be here in Lafayette, so please keep it in mind, I'd love to meet more Doiron's. There was one here in 1999 and we had a really good turn out... hope to do the same again.
What a shame they didn't continue with their French and you as well... but those were the times back then. I cannot imagine how degrading that must have been for all the Acadians. They were all treated like that. But lucky for us, they were such proud people and now we have embraced their/our heritage.!>
Thank you again, for responding so quickly. This is so neat!
