This surprises me.I've just read your list of birth anouncments, and noted that nearly all the names were unfamiliar to me. However, all the obit. names are ones I know well, some are older people, but many are young, and some are children.

I'd be very interested to see some BAs from your area if you feel like posting some, some time. I'm especially fascinated by the French Canadian names that don't occur in France, which I come across occasionally - Exérine (as mentioned further down the page) was one.
