I guess my great-grandfather was a family man.
Stanislas Lagacé was born on August 9, 1842, in Henryville in the province of Quebec. I knew back in 2007 that I had a great-grandfather of course like everybody else, but I knew nothing about him.
Everything I have found out about Stanislas Lagacé is because some people cared and were willing to share what little information they had about Stanislas Lagacé.
My 3rd cousin Sandy had been looking for him since 1985 when her uncle got her interested in genealogy. She always wonder who was that elusive Dennis Lagasse.
He is not elusive anymore and he’s even more famous than Emeril Lagasse, well on this blog that is…
Lionel Lagasse had these pictures of Dennis aka Stanislas who is his great-great-grandfather.
I never met Lionel in person but I know that Stanislas’ kindness runs in his veins as well as his son’s.
Great posts, I really do have to get back here more often. By the way, saw on another blog that you mentioned your current interest in the Civil War, thought you might like http://www.chipsofftheoldblock.wordpress.com they have a Civil War section.
