ANNOUNCING THE THIRD

ST. TAMMANY GENEALOGICAL
SOCIETY WEBINAR –

NOVEMBER 14, 2020 – ONLINE!


Keating: An Irish Name for a

French Louisiana Family

with Jay Schexnaydre


The speaker, Jay Schexnaydre, will discuss the research which he conducted on his great-grandmother's Keating family.  Although they have a traditional Irish name, the Keating family of St. John the Baptist Parish has roots in France, Saint-Domingue, Mauritius, Philadelphia and Delaware, not to mention Ireland.  Find out how Jay uncovered the history of this family back 1,000 years and reunited cousins from around the globe. 


Jay Schexnaydre is the President of the German-Acadian Coast Historical & Genealogical Society.   He is also a board member of the Lafourche Heritage Society and the former two-term president of the Genealogical Research Society of New Orleans. Jay graduated with honors from LSU with a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems and Decision Science and is currently employed as the Assistant Manager at the Laura Plantation in Vacherie.


Jay is a tenth-generation native of Convent of St. James Parish.  He has intensely studied the families of St. James, St. Charles, St. John, Ascension, Assumption, Iberville and Lafourche Parishes — all places from which his ancestors hail.
