Confuse the Dead is a genealogy and family history blog authored by genealogist Laurie Desmarais.

“My name is Laurie Desmarais, I’ve been researching my family history for over 15 years.  I’m a life member of the American French Genealogical Society in Rhode Island.  In the last year I’ve decided to take my hobby to the next level.  I’ve started to participate in #genchat on Twitter, online discussions and other social media resources related to genealogy.”
