Just thought you were taking a 3 gen. leap! Leonard joined the Dutch Protestant Church as Jonar Larroy, Petrus was baptisted under the Larua name, it was his son Jonas that used Laraway (maybe he just wanted to sound more dutch).

Vital Audie was born in St. Ferdinand March 10,1875 and came to the U.S. April 12,1909. His father was Vital Audy born Dec 12, 1846, the son of Thomas Audy and Olive Vachon. Line carries back to Simeons son Jean born Sept 4, 1670.

I had already tried that Phonetically close line on my father ... his responce was "only if your speaking mill french" I will stay with dit, or the man might get out of his wheelchair and strangle me with his one good arm!
