Les Doucet du
Monde (LDDM) is a non-profit organization whose
mission is to bring together individuals and families who are
descendants of the Doucet families of North America, especially
those of Germain Doucet, Sieur dit LaVerdure, and Pierre Doucet
of Alabama, to perpetuate an appreciation for our family
heritage. To accomplish this mission, we encourage individuals
to (1) become active members of LDDM, (2) share their
genealogical research to assist others in finding their
ancestors, (3) participate in LDDM sponsored activities
(such as family reunions, etc.) and (4) share stories about
members of the family so that each generation may have a greater
appreciation for those who have walked before us.
In using the
spelling DOUCET we include all those who are descendants of a
Doucet family, but have a variation in the spelling of the name,
such as Doucette, Doucett, Dousett, Dowsett, etc.
Although our
primary focus is on the Doucet family of Acadian descent, we
encourage anyone who is a Doucet or descendant of a Doucet to
join with us. The family is the core element of society. We
therefore cherish our family as an essential participant in the
society of the world.
