Thanks
to all the individuals who helped put this work together. |
Thanks to Bruce LeBoeuf who scanned all 466
pages, one by one, after helping to decide the format, etc., of
the files. |
Special
thanks to Audrey Barnes Westerman CGRS, who used her many talents
to research the Native American population of Pointe au Chien and
Isle de Jean Charles to contribute to the Genealogy and Timeline
sections. |
Thanks
to Jess Bergeron who had done a considerable amount of research
to correct and add to Miss Ledet's family pages. |
|
I
want to specially thank my wife, Gloria Gravois Hicks for all her
help, encouragement, and patience during the two or more years I
took to finish this project. The places where she influenced the
final output are too numerous to mention, here. |
**Note:
the name of the area is a bone of contention to a number of people,
not the least of whom was Miss Ledet, herself. See her obituary, here. |
Thanks
to Marcie and Essie Cavalier who took the last photographs of Miss
Ledet and saved the obituary. |

In
one of the last known photographs of her, Laïse is shown
with the bed which was hand made by her grandfather Ledet. Read
the story on pages 342, 343, and 344 |
Using
Internet Explorer?If the images are too small to read, hold
your mouse over the page for a few seconds (5 - 20) and you may
see an icon for enlarging the picture of the page. |
Another
trick for enlarging: Most up-to-date browsers have
a Print Preview feature where you can select the percent of enlarging.
Use that to look at the page, even if you don't print it. |
If
you have tried everything and you are still having trouble, you
may need to update your browser,
or find a replacement. Most browsers are free. Go online to the
Mozilla site at http://www.mozilla.org/ and look for the latest version of Mozilla, Firefox, etc. Or try
the latest Netscape browser at http://channels.netscape.com.
