Hi!
Danielle, who has posted to this list, mentioned your name to me. She is in touch with family close to you and she and I have been trying to organize a meeting. I am so glad that you got in touch! Josephine Genard married Antoine Dyon {Dion, Young} and were in Putnam Ct. back to Quebec then finally in Northampton MA. Antoine had brothers though in the area of New Bedford. I have info on the family and would love to share it with you and to learn what you know also. We are beginning to be a group, Genard descendants in New England. You can get hold of me at
cey@mediaone.net. and maybe we can coordinate with danielle and sit down and share our info.
I have met Candy Bryant who also wrote into the list and we had a winderful time at luch sharing info. Her family is descendant from Joseph Octaves brother Zepherine and their family remained in the Connecticut area.
Hope to talk further soon.
Christine
