      Hello, again! I wrote you earlier to express gratitude for your site
      solving a long family mystery for us. (i so enjoyed reading your history
      and achievements...impressive and I'm sure fun and rewarding!)
      You may be much to busy to answer individual requests...I'll certainly
      understand. However, if you're feeling charitable today :~), perhaps you
      could help me clear up some confusion.
      Attached is the letter from a Clinton County, New York (Chazy)
      researcher who finally helped us clear up what the name of our Lashua
      family was in French.
      We've had many other theories (Lajoie, Langevin, Gerin, etc. etc.) but
      this one actually panned out and matched!!It's a thrilling night in the
      warm sub-tropics! (Savannah, Ga..)
      We have some Esther confusion. A couple of Kris's (attached letter)
      records match mine but not yours. I have Etienne Lazure or Stephen
      Lashua (as his gravestone says) married to Esther Nadeau, and Stephen
      (Etienne number two) as their son and Marguerite as their daughter also.
      I have Marguerite's husband as Isaac Richer...so do you and Kris. I have
      Etienne's wife as Marie Nevert, roughly, as does Kris and as does her
      gravestone, but you have a different surname.
      My main confusion, though, as I indicated before I went all over the
      place, is on Esther. I have Esther Nadeau as the mother of Stephen the
      second (Etienne), Caroline, William, etc. from several sources.
      Yet, although Kris shows Esther Nadeau as Marguerite and Stephen's
      mother at these weddings, she also has a wedding showing an Esther
      Fortier.
      Can you help please possibly at all?
      I'll be happy to help later if you want with what I have...I even know
      who Esther Nadeau worked for, what property they owned, etc. :~)
      Seriously, though, I do have a number of dates and places that might be
      of use.
      Thanks so very much! If you get to Savannah (according to Conde Nast
      Traveller...one of the 10 best vacation destinations....three years in a
      row...our nation's largest historic district would just take your breath
      away....) our beach place is yours for a couple of nights if no one's in
      it! :~) It's amazing how much family can't wait to see you once you get
      a little beach condo.:~)
      Take care! Warmly, Susan

      Hi Stu,

      I found the following:

      Etienne [Note: Incase your not aware already Etienne is Stephen in French] LAZURE s/o Etienne LAZURE & Esther NADEAU
      married Marie NEVERT/NEVERS d/o Jean NEVERT/NEVERS & Suzanne LAVALLEE 29 Nov 1871 at St. Joseph's in
      Coopersville

      also found

      Marguerite LAZURE d/o Etienne LAZURE & Esther NADEAU married Isaac RICHER widow of Cecile Monty 12 July 1879 at
      St. Joseph's in Coopersville

      Etienne LAZURE s/o J.B. LAZURE & Marguerite LAFRAMBOISE and the widow of Sale SAREUR married Esther FORTIER
      d/o Jacques FORTIER & Archange LAPLANTE 20 Feb 1849 at St. Joseph's in Coopersville

      Some name variations & 'dit' names you might want to keep in mind are:

      PAQUET= LAVALLEE
      LAZURE=LAJEUNE=LAJEUNESSE=YOUNG

      You may want to try writing to St. Joseph's (sorry I don't have an address) and see if they have any baptismal/burial information on
      the above mentioned.

      Hope this helps.

      Kris

      Hi, Kris! Happy Spring. Thank you so very much for your volunteer
      efforts to help.
      I'll try to be as little trouble as possible!
      My name is Stuart Crowningshield Herrick..I live in Savannah Georgia but
      all of my roots are in Upstate New York. My mother's family
      (Crowningshield) is well documented for centuries. My paternal family is
      a mystery that, at the age of 79, I would like to solve for my offspring
      and theirs.
      My father was born William Edward Lasua/Lashua (even Lashway).The
      spellings vary and it seems to be common with the translations from the
      French. (I'm told it was probably Lajoie originally...perhaps a dit
      name.) The Herrick may throw you...my father's mother was divorced in
      1896 and married a John Herrick...my dad started using that name.
      I know that my dad's father, Edward Lashua, was born in Clinton County
      in 1856. Either his father or grandfather...its not clear, was Stephen
      Lashua (buried in Riverview) who came to Chazy with his wife Esther from
      Canada in 1840. Stephen and Esther, I am told, had children including
      Stephen, Edward, George, William (a civil war vet), Jennie and Caroline.
      Son Stephen married Mary Neverett and they had three children..John,
      Carrie (who married Edmund Dragoon of Champlain) and Edward. This Edward
      I believe to be my grandfather.It seems he might have been married and
      divorced in Clinton County before marrying my grandmother (Ida Louise
      Bemis)and moving to Lowell, Mass.where my dad was born. My dad
      seemingly had an older half-sister Grace Lashua...I've found her
      mentioned on my grandparents' divorce decree.I found one born in
      Parishville in 1881...could be she. (My family would never discuss any
      of this...divorce being an embarrassment in the late 1800's)
      As you know...getting info together is one thing and proving it another.
      I have records of many of the above being buried in Riverview and Sacred
      Heart.
      It seems your specialty is marriages. If you can find any Clinton County
      records of Lashua marriages I would be most eternally grateful! Warmest
      regards, Stu
