I did not travel on my French and Belgian genealogy road alone. Once I was able to find records in the US, which lead me to records in Quebec, and then finally to the names and towns in France and Belgium, As I started the research (and it was a slow one), in France and Belgium, I was able to build a network of genealogists and distant cousins who helped me along the way with translations, guidance, genealogy records, research of family lines and recognizing difficult letters and words in older documents. Two of my distant cousins have also researched extended family lines and found wonderful databases for me to share with everyone. I’m so grateful to all of them for their help and guidance.
