Dear Francois,

I would like to echo Ray's welcoming note as your potential cousin! I guess the question that is in all of our mind's is "Have you been able to connect your lineage to the Francois Barteau that immigrated to this country from Holland in 1657?"

If so, I am sure that there are many people monitoring this message board and this thread that would love to learn of your connection and more about our French cousins! Please feel free to share your connection by posting again to this thread!

Au revoir,
Wayne Barto
