Anne-Marie Irwin - Francois Scarabin

Filed under: General — Anne-Marie Irwin @ 6:43 pm

Hello there,

I am contacting because my grandfather was also called Francois Scarabin. He lived in Savigney sur orge and died at the age of 98. He was originally from Brittany. he married Valentine D’Amboise, and my mother was Helene Scarabin, until she married my father, William Irwin at the end of WW2
I am wondering whether our families may be linked in some way!
best wishes,
Anne-Marie Irwin

Filed under: General — Jason Scarabin @ 10:04 am

I will write more about this later, but it has been a nightmare dealing with Jennifer Convertibles. Do NOT ever buy a single thing from them. Please read this great article about another person’s nightmare with this less-than-stellar business..

Jury Duty

Filed under: General — Jason Scarabin @ 5:28 pm

Well, I just spent the day “doing” Jury Duty. I’m not too happy I got released by the prosecution but I suppose when you express your opinions, you’re not likely to be kept by either side. It looked to be a very interesting case.

Welcome!

Filed under: General — Jason Scarabin @ 12:34 am

Well, I’ve been working on sites for many years now and I can’t say I’ve been more pleased with a solution for a family site than I am now… with a blog that seems to suit the needs of a family-driven site. I hope that you’ll all contribute whatever is important to you and your individual families. I do want this to be a place for the family to stay close as well as publishing ourselves.

As always, thank you all for the support you’ve given to the site!
