What an amazing job you have done researching your ancestors! I am constantly amazed at the connections people have that are unknown until someone like you puts in the work to research family history. I descend from Louis Jacques (bio is online) who immigrated from Amiens, France to eastern suburb of Quebec City, New France(now Canada). He is the ancestor to all the French Canadian Jacques families. These Jacques people were devout Roman Catholics, a contrast to your William who became a Presbyterian minister. My grandmother was Mary Grace Labelle born 1898 near Malone, NY. Her mother was Sophronie Jacques born about 1851 just north of Plattsburgh, NY. Line continues back to L’Acadie, St Jean County, south of Montreal, back to Cap St Ignace area on southern shore of St Lawrence River near Quebec City then back to Charlesbourg, PQ. My grandmother married Patrick McCarthy (Sr). Their son Patrick, my father, married Margaret Semivan born Windber, PA. I am a retired Elementary teacher born (1949)and raised in Oswego, NY, now living in Buena Vista, VA near Blue Ridge mountains. Jeanne (McCarthy) DeSantis (husband Tom is 100% Italian) Thanks for clearing up some mixed up info I found online for Jacques ancestors.
Sorry for the delay, Jeanne. Great info you offer. I worked for the propane company in Windber for a few years before returning to broadcasting and eventually ending my career teaching English at the local Catholic college. How ironic for a lifelong Protestant! My wife, a devout Lutheran, also finished her musical career as choral director for Johnstown’s Catholic high school. We loved working for such kind and serious folks. Feel free to e-mail any time. Thanks for your meaningful words, Larry
