I thought I had submitted a message yesterday but do not see it on the message board. I am a descendent of Avila Sirard from Québec who came to California about 1852 and married Marie Sophie Gauthier, daughter of Apolinaire Gauthier of Lons le Saunier, France. I very much wish to contact M. Dupuis who has done a genealogy of the Sirard family. Thank you.
