Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2003 09:01:04 EDT

In trying to complete the genealogical information of the late coach Tom
Landry. The earliest ancestor I could find were his great-grandparents Stanislas
Landry and Marceline Tremblay. But thanks to and André Landry, Judy Palm, Kathe
Knight Carol Chiniguy and others, we now are able to trace his ancestry back
to Rene Landry, l'âiné dit "Claude" and Perrine Bourg through their son Claude
Landry bn ca 1665 died 1740 and married Marguerite Thériot who was bn ca
1667 and was the daughter of Claude and Marie Gautrot.

Port Royal, and daughter of Jean Simon LeBlanc and Jeanne Dupuis around
