This weeks focus is a family tree of French immigrants who settled in Acadia during the 
dates 1600-1763. Their descendants are concentrated in today's Canadian Atlantic 
Provinces, Qu˙bec, New England, and Louisiana (Cajuns).

Per wikitree.com, I am:

18 degrees from Beyonce Knowles - pop performer
17 degrees from Jean B˙liveau - hockey player
18 degrees from Madonna Ciccone - pop performer
19 degrees from Rheal Cormier - baseball player
16 degrees from Joseph Drouin - genealogist
17 degrees from Jack Kerouac - novelist and Beat poet
19 degrees from Anne Murray Langstroth - country and pop music singer
20 degrees from Matt LeBlanc - actor
19 degrees from Romeo LeBlanc - former Governor General of Canada
15 degrees from Azilda Marchand - women's right activist
18 degrees from Mary Travers - musician
18 degrees from Clarence White - guitarist for The Byrds

I have some ancestors that were astronauts, black, bank robbers, singers and 
musicians, politicians, physicians, detectives, architects, actors, comedians.  I guess that 
I am a collection of all of them, as we ALL are.
