J.J. Bellemare

Bellemare stands for J.J. Bellemare. That's me!

I am a French-speaking Quebecer immigrant to the United States and I had the privilege the live in New Orleans' historic French Quarter until Hurricane Katrina's landfall. I have been a Wikipedian since 2006. I have a B.A. in History.

When I come across a landmark that has not yet drawn the attention of Internet users, I generally research it and add a short description on Wikipedia. I do my best to be informative rather than use Wikipedia to share my personal opinions. The articles that I write are not always very polished, but it is to be taken with a grain of salt since the content of Wikipedia is a continuing work in progress.

Past Articles

edit

I have written or reshaped many brief articles, related to a wide variety of topics. They include:

  • In Savannah and its surroundings:
    • African-American Heritage;
    • Local buildings and structures;
    • Meaning of street and road names;
    • Waterways;
  • In my native area, La Mauricie, and Quebec, Canada:
    • Historians;
    • History and landmarks;
    • Local economy;
    • Local politicians;
    • Military history;
    • Provincial third party politics.

Future Projects

edit

I would like to:

  • improve and expand the content of the articles that I have written already;
  • write articles related to the Savannah Jewish community;
  • translate the articles that I have written already into French, my native language.
