• Acadian roots

    From Mike Dippel@954:895/1 to All on Wednesday, February 12, 2025 09:07:02
    This weeks focus is a family tree of French immigrants who settled in Acadia during the
    dates 1600-1763. Their descendants are concentrated in today's Canadian Atlantic
    Provinces, Qu˙bec, New England, and Louisiana (Cajuns).

    Per wikitree.com, I am:

    18 degrees from Beyonce Knowles - pop performer
    17 degrees from Jean B˙liveau - hockey player
    18 degrees from Madonna Ciccone - pop performer
    19 degrees from Rheal Cormier - baseball player
    16 degrees from Joseph Drouin - genealogist
    17 degrees from Jack Kerouac - novelist and Beat poet
    19 degrees from Anne Murray Langstroth - country and pop music singer

    15 degrees from Azilda Marchand - women's right activist
    18 degrees from Mary Travers - musician

    I have some ancestors that were astronauts, black, bank robbers, singers and musicians, politicians, physicians, detectives, architects, actors, comedians. I guess that
    I am a collection of all of them, as we ALL are.
