Hi Joan,

Thank you for thinking of me. Yes, I started that List last February, and
we average about 280 subscribers.

P.S. Last week I started up another new List. I haven't had time to
set it up, yet, but researchers should be able to subscribe to it:



I had thought about starting up a new List for Argenteuil County, Quebec,
but, I found out that the counties north of the St. Lawrence River are now
grouped into municipalities. A little investigating showed that a good
part of this area is part of the Laurentian Mountain range. I decided
that might be an appropriate title. But, when I checked the Message
Boards, I found out there is a Laurentides Message Board. So, I decided
my new List should have the same title as the Board.

An FYI is that there has been a List for "the Former Township of Gore" for
several years. And, researchers can post a query for other parts of
Argenteuil County. That is where the KERR / HENDERSON family-group
settled. That "former town" is where Lachute and Lakefield are now.

(Don't forget that some place-names in Quebec Province have both English
names and French names.)

Remember to check the archives of all the Lists and Boards for your surnames
and place-names.
And, please remember to check the on-line auctions for for your surnames and
place-names.



We may have arrived on different ships but we're all in the same boat now.
