Hello.

Thank You for visiting.

My name is Dave Lapin.

I live with my family in Austin Texas, and lead a blessed life.

I coach HS Lacrosse and work for a large technology company.

I know who I am.

I am quite sure to a more limited degree, that I don't know where I came from.

Strange as it seems, I cannot rationalize why in the world I would want to discover more branches of my family tree. I am, for the most part, way too impartial and uninvolved with most of the members of my current known family tree.

That said, I started this quest as a lark in an attempt to change that indifference.

I got a kick out of how many Lapins there are out there. Some of my cousins and I have built a Facebook community called: "People Whose Names Mean Rabbit in French" and have invited as many Lapins as we can find. Feel free to add me as a friend, or join the group, or both.

I will present the time line for the part of the Lapin tree that I know, and can confirm. I am working on getting the references loades; thanks for your patience.

Please feel free to participate in a collaborative way; in the spirit of cooperation, we may all benefit by gaining a better understanding of where we came from.

Warm Regards,

Dave
