Francois Xavier Jardon was my maternal great grandfather. He immigrated to the US from France prior to 1852 when he was married to Elise Beuchat in November 1852 in Norfolk, CT. He arrived in Douglas County, with wife and three children in 1858. They were eventually parents of 12, some of which still live in Baldwin City. He died 8 November 1890. He had several businesses and was a prominent citizen of Baldwin City. If possible, I would like a copy of his obituary, any information concerning his immigration such as ports of departure and arrival, dates, etc. I am willing to pay a reasonable fee for this research and for copying, postage, certificates, etc. Thanks, Trudy Swain
