Dear Sir:
I have just received the link to your site dealing with Louisiana historical and cultural vistas.
It’s amazing work and as a descendant of some of the Lousiana settlers, I thank you for devoting your life to this subject. Its pertinence is particularly relevant in light of current events in the United States.
I hope that I could contact you in the future for any questions I might have on slavery as it existed in Louisiana, or for better orientation in my own family research.
Sincerely,
First of all, allow me to express my gratitude for the information you share online!
Christophe, thank you so much for the information you posted on Louisiana mixed marriages. It was key in helping me solve a mystery in my family tree, which I could have otherwise not done. Again, many thanks. Sincerely, Jim Samuels Jr.
Hello Mr. Landry –
I have been studying your work online and would like to discuss your research as it also relates to our ancestors as well. You seem to be on the path to correct the misinformation’s that have been presented throughout history … Thank you!
Mr. Landry,
There are few words to explain the joy and shock I felt after reading your email. Just seeing my great grandfather’s name (written correctly) was….like finding a long lost treasure map. I am quite sure you have heard this awe and gratitude from scores of our people before. You are truly a blessing to our culture, and I know there are wings hidden under that crisp white shirt! All this said, and I have yet to even say thank you!
Dear Christophe,
Thank you so much for publishing your Mixed Marriages Index on line.
I cannot tell you how thankful I am. Thanks again, and when you write it, I’ll be the first t[o] buy your book.
