Michelle,
As I understand it is possible to order copies of documents but you would need precise references. If they find the documents they will send you an invoice etc. This could take from 3 weeks to 2 months. You can write to them at the following address:
Centre historique des Archives nationales (CHAN)
CARAN - service de reprographie
60 rue des Francs-Bourgeois
F-75141 Paris Cedex 03
Or if you like I will write to them for you. Please let me know before the 31st as I may be without a computer for
My love and prayers for all on both these list (yes I know there are

I was looking to see if I had anything on the McCloskey name in my files. Not
much - but I found that Fred Hellmers had a store where the McCloskey
building was in 1907. I posted what I have for June 1907 on my web site.
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~rambler32/obits/1907_june.txt
There's some material on Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hellmers 50th wedding anniversary,
Dr. Formento and others - not just obits but other deaths and other items
that caught my fancy.

Hi Lionel,
Than you very much for your suggestion of looking for Wrotnowskis in Arizona.
I ahd never thought of that. I have forwarded your email to Roquen in
Sonora. I have suggested too that she join the list temporarily and get
information directly from the list. Everyone has been so helpful!

Hi Gis,
Exact information? All I know is ,"A Louisiana Planter, Dubreuil, made a
machine for separating seed from the lint in 1742, probably a rediscovery of the
roller-gin principle which we know existed in other parts of the world at least
three hundred years before Christ. A public document, dated Paris, 1752,
described at length the cultivation of cotton in Louisiana." I am assuming two
things, one> Dubreuil = Claude Joseph Villars Dubreuil who reinvented and
partially invented several items. two

I was researching wills, etc. at the N.O. Public Library last week and
found all but one on microfilm (one of the ones that was listed in the
index as being on a particular reel wasn't, but the rest were where they
were supposed to be). However, these were early documents (1813 and 1828)
and were not very legible on the microfilm. The copies I made were even
worse, so I'll go to the Notarial Archives on my next trip to read the
originals and make abstracts. The librarian who was helping me said that

There wasn't any hit on the name Arthur F. on Ancestry, but looking at all
the census entries from 1900-1930 for that name, the far majority who were
not native to the US were born in Austria or Poland. (one family showed
Russia) It was interesting to see that many of those born in Austria spoke
Polish as the primary language in their households. I did not see French
mentioned at all.

I am actually working backwards, but I need some help to verify that I have
the correct information. I have a picture that I believe is where my
father was born in New Orleans. I now must verify it. I had some info from
the Williamson Research Foundation, but there were issues with travel and a

I would appreciate it if someone could look up Russell or Rosalino Federico,

The cat's out of the bag.
Our self-styled "silent" partner Dee Brunner has transcribed the 1960 - 1969
St. Roch burial books. They can be found at:

This file is organized by date of burial. She is also working on them by

"Silent"??? My foot. You should have sen her at Salvo's the other night.
Life of the part. Silent? Ha! That's a good one.

HI, this is in response to some of the questions. I work at the Hermann-Grima/Gallier Historic Houses and some of the information is in our tours. Prior to St. Louis #1 there was a gravesite on St. Peter. That became unmanageable and St. Louis #1 was built. More information on that may come from someone else. As to wells. After the 2 devastating fires in the late 1700's, a very strict building code was enacted. Homes had to built of brick, roofs had to be slate or stone, brick walls had to separate p
