I began researching my family tree back in 1976 when my father discovered a paternal link of his ancestry ten generations back to Acadia in the 1600’s. It was a fun and wonderful discovery, and I have been engaged in genealogy ever since. This book is a summary of many of the ancestors I have discovered. It does not include all known ancestors since once you get past the 12th generation into ancient noble familes of England and France, the numbers would become much too large to put into these charts. For most of my ancestors who were from noble families, I provide information about their ancestors and on occasion follow one of their lines back as far as the records show. I generally do not show all the anestors since to do so would have required that I double the size of this book. There are well over a thousand ancestors listed in these charts. With some lines I can go back over thirty generations. Many of my ancestral lines go back thirteen generations or more. I try to to list sources for the information in the book. In this age of the internet, most of the information in these charts can be found by doing google searches of the name or family. Much of the information in these charts can be found in websites. A lot of the information on my French Canadian ancestors can be found in the Archives nationals du Quebec, Centre d’archives de Montreal PRDH at the University of Montreal (Programme de Recherche en Demographie Historique,www.genealogy.mon- treal.ca/en/main.html) and the Dictionnaire genealogique de nos Origines, by Denis Beauregard www.genealogie.com. Information on ancient family lines was obtained from a variety of sources, most which is available online. If you want to get additional information on any of the immigrant ancestors listed in this book, simply google their names and you will find detailed information for most of them. I provide names of sources for some of the ancient family lines, some which have detailed references. I certainly cannot verify the accuracy of ancient lines. My ancestors were some of the first Europeans to settle here. In fact, some of my ancestors were here when the Europeans came. Many of my ancestral lines go back to the 1500’s in France and England who had laws which required the recording of baptisms, deaths and weddings1. Some even go further back. Most of my ancestors were peasants or common folk although some were nobles and knights. Following is a sampling of some of the persons who make up my American Roots: • I have a direct ancestor who lost both of his eyes on order of King Henry I of England after he was labeled a traitor by fighting the King at the battle of Rougemontiers in France which was fought in 1124 A.D. (30. Geoffrey de Turville) • I have many direct ancestors who were protestant and came to the new world to escape religious prosecution. Those who were English of course remained protestant but those who were French had to convert to Catholicism in order to conform to French laws that only allowed Catholics in New France. • I have a direct ancestor who was the Sheriff of Hertfordshire in merry old England in the 1300’s. (21. Sir Roger de Puttenham). • Charlemagne is a direct ancestor of mine through several noble lines. William the Conqueror is one too! In other words, I can trace my bloodlines back to the Celtic, Germanic and Roman people who lived in Europe during the Dark Ages. Immigrant ancestors of Mark Labine where noble connections have clearly been established are 10.Jean Baptiste Sicard de Carufel, 13.Michel Leneuf, 14.Jeanne LaMarchand, 12.Catherine de Baillon, 10.Francois de Chavigny, 10.Mathieu Amyot, 11.Anne Couvent, 11.Pierre du Lignon, Sieur de La Mirande, and 13.John Putnam. Other immigrant ancestors who appear from the information available to be from noble families include, 11.Jean Jacquet de Gerlaise, 11.Jean Francois de Billy, 11.Etienne de Lessard, 11.Eleanore de Grandmaison, 11.Jacques Aubert, 11.Anne Godefroy, 11.Thankful Woodward, and 11.Edward Elmer. 1 In 1539 in his castle in Villers-Cotterets, King Francis I of France signed an edict known as the Ordinance of Villers-Cotterets, which among other reforms, required priests to register births, marriages and deaths and to establish a registry office in every parish. King Francis also required every person to have a “surname” and because of this edict I am able to trace many of my French ancestors back to the 1500’s. Ancestral Chart Page 3 • I have an ancestor who was with the famous explorer Jean Nicollet when he died in Quebec (11.Francois de Chavigny). • I have three direct ancestors who fought in or near the battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775 (9.David Johnson, 9.Othniel Taylor and 8.William Boyd). • I have a brother of a direct ancestor who fought with Roger’s Rangers who were made famous in the book “Northwest Passage” (Lt. Jacob Farrington, brother to 8.Elizabeth Farrington). • I have a direct ancestor who was one of the original colonists of Southampton, Long Island, New York (11. John Farrington). • I have at least two direct ancestors who were Native Americans (8.Pert Won and wife or lover of 8.Alexander McDougall). • I have a direct ancestor who was the Bishop of London in the 1500’s (15. Bishop John Aylmer (Elmer). • I have at least six direct ancestors who fought in the Revolutionary War on the American side (9.David Johnson, 9.Othniel Taylor 8.William Boyd, 8.Gad Elmer, 8.Lt. Josiah Johnson, and 8.James Dascomb) and one direct ancestor who fought for the British side (9.Lt. Duncan McDougall Sr.) • I have at least two direct ancestors who fought in the Civil War (6.Alexander Seber and 5.Adelphis David Verboncoeur). I have a cousin of one direct ancestor who died from wounds received at Gettysburg (Edmund Dascomb) and one cousin of a direct ancestor who won the Congressional Medal of Honor (Lt. Colonel Robert Whedon Steele). One of my direct ancestors was believed killed in Sherman’s march to the sea only to discover that the man who died was his replacement (5.Alexander Seber). • I have several direct ancestors who were soldiers in the War of 1812 (7.Joseph Labissioniere, 7.Archibald Jackson Sr. and 7.George Dascomb). • I have several direct ancestors who fought in the Indian wars of early America and Quebec, and several of them were killed by the Indians (12.Edward Elmer, 12.Jean Turcotte, 12.Jacques Lucas 11. Jean Dalpe dit Pariseau and 13. John Graves) • I have the brother of a direct ancestor who was hung as a pirate in Boston in 1725 along with his minor son (Jean Baptiste Guidry, brother to 9.Pierre Guidry dit Labine). • I have a direct ancestor who was a parliamentary lawyer in Paris in the 1600’s, (11.Pierre Sicard) and several ancestors who were judges (13.Pierre Guibert, 11.Francois Perrot, 11.Michel Boudreau, 11.Abraham Dugas, 11.Jacques Turcotte, 13.Michel Leneuf du Herisson, and 12.Charles Sevestre).

    * African Borders as Sources of Natural Experiments Daniel N. Posner Department of Political Science University of California, Los Angeles Los Angeles, CA 90095-1472 [email protected] This version: 12 February 2006 * Paper prepared for presentation in the Colloquium Series of the Yale Program in Agrarian Studies, 17 February 2006. I thank John McCauley for sharing his data on religious identification along the Côte d’Ivoire-Burkina Faso border and Anoop Sarbahi for his help assembling the GPCP rainfall data. The arbitrary nature of Africa’s borders is well known.1 Less well recognized is the opportunity that these arbitrary borders provide for social science research. This paper describes some of the shortcomings of traditional, observational studies and shows how natural experiments can provide for more reliable inferences about causality. The paper then draws on examples from three different projects to illustrate how the artificial nature of Africa’s borders can be used as a source of natural experiments. The Quest for Causal Inferences in Social Science Research In the social sciences, researchers typically make causal inferences through observational studies. These are analyses where the variables that the researcher is studying acquire their values through the unfolding of real-world events that are outside the researcher’s control (Collier et al 2004). The problem with observational studies is that they make it difficult or impossible to rule out the possibility that other, unmeasured variables may be the cause of the observed relationship between the variables of interest. Suppose, for example, we are interested in the linkage between smoking and cancer.

  • LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1Re Partie)
    ENTRETIEN LE CHEMIN DU ROY (1re partie) Au début de la colonie, il n’existait pas de réseau routier, mis à part quelques sentiers, tels ce chemin de bois, dit grande allée ou grande ligne, qui reliait dès 1650 la pointe ouest du Cap-aux-Diamants et Cap-Rouge1. Pour se déplacer, on utilisa d’abord la route fluviale, puis des chemins de grève, tracés sur terre battue à 12 mètres environ en deçà de la ligne des plus hautes marées, conformément à cette ordonnance du Conseil souverain, datée du 13 mai 1665 : …il est nécessaire que les clotures… soient… apposées à deux perches au dessus des plus haultes marées… pour la liberté tant du passage des charrettes et bestiaux que de la navigation. Enjoinct à toutes personnes de reformer celles qui sont plus que les dites deux perches… à peyne de tout despens d’hommages et intérests et mesmes d’amendes… Durant plus de 80 ans, des charrettes tirées par des bœufs puis des chevaux franchiront ces routes rudimentaires, ancêtres du chemin royal. Nous ne croyons pas faire fausse route en prétendant, comme plusieurs auteurs, que l’actuelle route 138 sur la rive nord du fleuve suit, dans son ensemble, le parcours original du chemin du Roy, sauf lorsqu’on a dû bifurquer par l’intérieur des terres. À l’origine, cette voie de communication fut entreprise sous l’impulsion de quelques grands voyers, à qui fut conférée la charge des voies publiques. LES GRANDS VOYERS L’office de grand voyer est attribué en 1657 par la Compagnie des Cent-Associés à René Robineau (de Bécancour).

  • The Fur Trade of the Western Great Lakes Region
    THE FUR TRADE OF THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES REGION IN 1685 THE BARON DE LAHONTAN wrote that ^^ Canada subsists only upon the Trade of Skins or Furrs, three fourths of which come from the People that live round the great Lakes." ^ Long before tbe little French colony on tbe St. Lawrence outgrew Its swaddling clothes the savage tribes­ men came in their canoes, bringing with them the wealth of the western forests. In the Ohio Valley the British fur trade rested upon the efficacy of the pack horse; by the use of canoes on the lakes and river systems of the West, the red men delivered to New France furs from a country unknown to the French. At first the furs were brought to Quebec; then Montreal was founded, and each summer a great fair was held there by order of the king over the water. Great flotillas of western Indians arrived to trade with the Europeans. A similar fair was held at Three Rivers for the northern Algonquian tribes. The inhabitants of Canada constantly were forming new settlements on the river above Montreal, says Parkman, ... in order to intercept the Indians on their way down, drench them with brandy, and get their furs from them at low rates in ad­ vance of the fair. Such settlements were forbidden, but not pre­ vented. The audacious " squatter" defied edict and ordinance and the fury of drunken savages, and boldly planted himself in the path of the descending trade. Nor is this a matter of surprise; for he was usually the secret agent of some high colonial officer.^ Upon arrival in Montreal, all furs were sold to the com­ pany or group of men holding the monopoly of the fur trade from the king of France.

  • In Church on Bigfeasts. I Think
    297 think it would be advisable to have them in church on big feasts. I think that, by making the establishment right after the mission that the Bishop ofBeauvais wants to have given there, it will be easy to get all that can be desiredfor the good of the confraternity. I have not done anything at all about suggesting this collection. Addressed: Monsieur Vincent 207. - TO CLEMENT DE BONZI, BISHOP OF BEZIERS [September or October 1635] 1 Your Excellency, I learned from M. Cassan, the brother of a priest from your town of Beziers, that you wanted to know three things about us. Now, since I was unable to have the honor of answering you at that time because I was leaving for the country, I decided to do so now. I shall tell you, first of all, Your Excellency, that we are entirely under the authority of the bishops to go to any place in their diocese they wish to send us to preach, catechize, and hear the general confessions of the poor; ten to fifteen days before ordina- tion, to teach all about mental prayer, practical and necessary theology, and the ceremonies of the Church to those about to be ordained; and to receive the latter into our house, after they are priests, for the purpose of renewing the fervor OurLord has given them at ordination. In a word, we are like the servants of the centurion in the Gospel2 with regard to the bishops, insofar as when they say to us: go, we are obliged to go; if they say: come, we are obliged to come; do that, and we are obliged to do it.

  • The Political Sources of Religious Identification: Evidence from The
    B.J.Pol.S. 49, 421–441 Copyright © Cambridge University Press, 2017 doi:10.1017/S0007123416000594 First published online 8 March 2017 The Political Sources of Religious Identification: Evidence from the Burkina Faso–Côte d’Ivoire Border JOHN F. MCCAULEY AND DANIEL N. POSNER* Under what conditions does religion become a salient social identity? By measuring religious attachment among the people living astride the Burkina Faso–Côte d’Ivoire border in West Africa, an arbitrary boundary that exposes otherwise similar individuals to different political contexts, this article makes a case for the importance of the political environment in affecting the weight that people attach to their religious identities. After ruling out explanations rooted in the proportion of different religious denominations, the degree of secularization and the supply of religious institutions on either side of the border, as well as differences in the degree of religious pluralism at the national level, it highlights the greater exposure of Ivorian respondents to the politicization of religion during Côte d’Ivoire’s recent civil conflict. Methodologically, the study demonstrates the power – and challenges – of exploiting Africa’s arbitrary borders as a source of causal leverage. Keywords: arbitrary borders; natural experiment; religion; Côte d’Ivoire; Burkina Faso; conflict; identities An estimated 85 per cent of the world’s population claims membership in a religious group.1 Yet the importance that people attach to their religious identity varies considerably. For some, religion is the defining characteristic of who they are; their politics and perspectives on the world are inextricably bound up in their faith. For others, religious group membership is merely one social attachment among many; their attitudes and behavior are little affected by their religious affiliation.
