Champlain Quadricentennial in Clinton County, NY

Preparations are starting to gel for the Quadricentennial of Champlain's arrival to New York. Meetings are being held, plans are being made and finances are being distributed.

NNYACGS is inviting other genealogical societies around the Champlain-Richilieu Valley to join us in our celebrations. People have already started to send us descendant trees of their ancestors who walked with Champlain. See them at http://www.nnyacgs.com/descendant.html.

You'll see that even though the lines started out with French names, they may end up with Polish, English, Spanish or Scottish names. What an American mosaic. We'd like to find as many cousins and cousines as possible. Add your own descendant tree by sending them to dunott@aol.com.
