The www.ancestry.ca website was designed to be repository for documents and data specifically related to the Maddeaux Surname.
Its goals can be stated briefly as:
To build an Internet community of Maddeaux Researchers bonded together for the purpose of advancing not only their specific, but their common goals as well.
To foster cooperation among Maddeaux Researchers Worldwide, by furnishing them with numerous avenues for exploring and extending their knowledge about their respective Maddeaux Families.
To encourage All Maddeaux Researchers to work with, and share their research with others in hopes of finding additional connections to their specific families. By contributing from your research to the Maddeaux Web, you may provide data which will help someone else. They, in return, may also contribute from their data and the cycle may be repeated. This site, in effect, belongs to Maddeaux Researchers everywhere and was set up with that thought . It will ultimately become what Maddeaux Researchers on the Internet make it to be! Hopefully, It will become a first class Family Research site where everyone can go to give and receive more Knowledge about their Maddeaux Families.
