Germain DoucetSieur de LaVerdure(possible rendition)

I am proud to say that I am able to trace my roots back to the original Acadian settlers of early Acadie.

All individuals of Acadian and Cajun descent will find themselves able to retrace their roots back to this same earliest group of hardy men and women who were willing to brave a new world for themselves and their families.

I, myself, am a direct descendant of Germain Doucet, also known as Sieur de LaVerdure.

Being a current and upstanding member of Les Doucet du Monde, it is my hope that we will grow in phenomenal numbers as we rediscover lost cousins.

Old genealogists never die; they just haunt cemeteries and lose their census. This about sums up my genealogical undertakings.

As a Special Education teacher, I know how important documentation is.

In combination with my insatiable passion for history, you end up with an obsessive amateur genealogist.

NOTE: Amateur refers to someone who pursues a study for the sheer love of it as opposed to the financial recompense.
