i was wondering if the name bouchet shows up in your lineage, because florent shows up in mine. my lineage derives from montreal, st. laurent and cornwall, ontario. i have many name changes in my lines, some are; florent, fleurant, flaro, flora, flareau, bouchet, and damour. if any of this sounds kosher to you...please reply...thank you

To Collette McFarland--My g grandfather was Albert Florence/Florent. I heard that he had a sister, Margaret, but not sure. He had a sister Clarissa who married Eleaser Hibbard/Hebert. They lived in Canada and Vermont. Albert and Clara's parents were Louis Florent and Cecile________. Albert said on censuses that he was born in Canada, possibly St. John (which one?) Do you have info on other Florents? Please let me know.

HI, MY E-MAIL HAS BEEN CHANGED TO JMJRIV3@JUNO.COM. MY APOLOGIES FOR NOT CHECKING MY POSTING FOR NETTIE LA FRANK/ FLEURANT SOONER. AS YOU CAN SEE WE ARE NOT SURE ON HER CORRECT LAST NAME. I SAW YOUR REPLY ON THE FLEURANT MSG BOARD, THEN CHECKED THIS ONE ALSO. I NOTICED THE NAME FRANK RIGHT AWAY AND HER SON ORIN LAMBERT, MARRIED LOUISE HEBERT. WE MAY HAVE A CONNECTION, I AM NOT SURE. AGAIN MY APOLOGIES, JANE
