Dear Chris, Well we certainly are connected pretty far back.Anyway I have been to France but not Picardy.Apparently from what I can gather from "L'Abbe Cyprien Targuay's Dictionaire Genalogique des Familles Cannadiennes Vol I, 1887)" that is
where "Nicolas Gamache Rouhautt du Poisson des" emigrated from.If you can find an old Encylopedia Brittanica World Atlas or a Michelin guide you will find there was a town called Gamache in Picardy, France.My guess is that the town would have been destroyed in WWII.I know this doesn't directly answer your question but I hope it helps you on your quest.
