RICHELIEU LEGE/LÉGER/LEGÉRE GENEALOGICAL DATABASE

There may be some confusion yet as to whether a Lege/Leger family is from the La Rosette Leger line or the Richelieu Leger line. For many years it was thought that all Leger's were traced to La Rosette, but in recent years, we have found it is not so. If you can trace your ancestors back to Michel Lege and Angelique Pinet, your ancestral line goes back to the Richelieu Legers.

Please look to this page in the future for any news about this fairly new organization.

We ask that all Lege/Leger/Legere Families submit their family genealogical information to the Genealogy Chairperson, Lou Leger - laleger@charter.net We have a very active Genealogy Committee who are working diligently to have as complete a data base as possible and need your help to be able to accomplish this.

During the reunions with Congrès Mondial Louisiana-1999, the Legers were part of the reunion with the Trahan Family. For pictures of some of these activities with their Canadian Cousins, along with a narration of the reunions, go the the Trahan Web Site.
