Caillouette Family -- Patricia Nawrocki, 16:49:36 11/08/05 Tue (adsl-68-125-80-149.dsl.irvnca.pacbell.net/68.125.80.149)
I am the great grandaughter of Felix Caillouette, Father Fexix, grandfather Joseph. My Father's name was Bernard Vivian Trudeau. His Mother was known as Nettie Caillouette, daughter of Felix and Victoria Martin Caillouette. I want to thank you for all the time and effort it must have taken to give me background on the Caillouette family. I was grateful for all the historical background you put into the Kankakee county and the early French settlers. I see that you live in Huntington Beach, California. I live in Lake Forest, Ca. ( Orange County) and was surprised to see that one of the Caillouette's is buried right across the street from me in the Catholic cementary on Trabuco Rd. I know a great deal about the Trudeau's and now thanks to you about the Caillouette's but I know nothing about my great grandmother Victoria Martin other than she married Felix and the names of their children. I would like to know more about the Martin's and Victoria's mother's maiden name. I do know that her name after marriage was Caroline Martin( Victoria's mother). It is obvious that you have experience with genealogy and was hoping for some tips. Also which service do you think is most useful genealogy.com or ancestry.com. I have limited subscriptions to both and am now ready to make a bigger investment. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you again for the dedication it took to put together your web site it is such a gift to all of us that want to know more.
Patricia ( Patty) Trudeau Nawrocki

Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Watch -- John Birutta, 14:22:57 09/05/06 Tue (66-90-224-139.dyn.grandenetworks.net/66.90.224.139)
My wife has had this Mickey Mouse watch in her possession for many years and she has asked to me to do a little research on it and see if I could determine its value.

It is original and is in excellent working order, the face, dial, hands, and crystal all appear new. The crystal measures about 3/4" across.

The case has no scratches or dents.

Overall it is in excellent condition with the exception of the original leather band which is aged and cracked.

It has Ingersoll written on the face just to the right and at about chin level to Mickey's head. Also © Walt Disney Productions at the bottom under Mickey's feet.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide in this matter or perhaps you would be able to point me in the right direction?

Hello, I'm helping a friend place a date on a light bulb with a figure of Mickey Mouse on the inside. It also has its own base with a plug in. She thinks it came from a World's Fair...

Ingalls and the Roosevelts -- Laura, 01:46:46 11/26/07 Mon (c-71-200-35-57.hsd1.de.comcast.net/71.200.35.57)
I was surprised not to see to many of our relatives writing in. My grandmother always told me that we were related to the Roosevelts, but never knew how. Thanks for the info. By the way, my mother's name is Ingalls and I am directly related to Peter Ingalls.

Elodie Langlois -- LuAnn, 20:03:03 11/17/01 Sat (dsl-205-187.resnet.purdue.edu/128.210.205.187)
My great-grandmother was Elodie Langlois but I didn't know much about her until I read your St. George page. (She was one of the early settlers with her parents Mr. and Mrs. Passnus Langlois.) Thanks!
