1726 After his mother's death in 1899, Norman's father remarried to a woman named Florence who became Norman's stepmother. At some point, the family moved to the north shore of the Georgian Bay and settled in Espanola,Ontario. Norman appears to have been working in the lumber trade in the Blind River, Ontario, area. Norman was drafted into service during WWI by the Canadian Expeditionary Forces on 23November 1917 at Blind River. At the time, he was reported to be 5'10" and weighed 142 pounds. Hehad a fair complexion with brown eyes and dark brown hair. Twenty-year old Norman listed his occupation as Bushman. Norman served with the 48thHighlanders Unit, 15th Canadian Battalion, in England and France. Thisunit was known affectionately as"TheLadies from Hell." They earned their tough moniker from their actions in the Aragon Forest in France. When Norman was discharged from the service in Toronto on 10 May 1919, his intentions were to return to Espanola. Norman eventually settled inSudbury, Ontario, and later married there. According to nephew William, he never would discuss his military service with anyone unless he got roaring drunk. At the time of his death, Norman was grandfather to 11 andgreat-grandfather to 3. At the time of Malvina's death, there were 11 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren. A note of interest: Norman is the father to the famous hockey player and coach, Al Arbour, of the NewYork Islanders. ARBOUR, Normand (I1310)
 
1727 After Jean Prou died, Jacquette went to live with Joseph. PROULX, Joseph (I64802)
 
1728 After matching dates, one must conclude that the reason Blanche and Earl separated and subsequently divorced is due to his relationship with Anna. Blanche and Earl married in May 1908, and their son Earl was born later that year. By Apr 1910, Blanche and son Earl lived as boarders, perhaps with friends. Although the elder Earl was no longer around, Blanche still claimed her status as married. Perhaps this was just denial on her part and the couple really had divorced. Or perhapsthey were still legally married even though Earl was in a relationship with Anna. In May 1910, Earl is found livingwith his parents in MT and claims himselfto be divorced. The following Dec 1910, Earl and Anna's son Easton wasborn in MT. Inabout Sep 1918, Earl and Anna had a daughter, Phyllis, born in MT. By Jan 1920, Earl, Anna, and their two children were living in UT. Apparently Blanche and Earl really did divorce at some point because she also remarried, in about 1912, toEdward. In Jan 1918, Blanche and Edward had a son Joseph. By 1923, Blanche, Edward, and Joseph had moved to OR, while son Earl remained in MT. In fact, after the 1910 Census, Blanche was never again notably connected with her son Earl. Perhapshe reminded her too much of his father and she avoided him. In any case, after 1910, young Earl seems to have been taken in and raised by hismaternal grandmother.

Note from Judy : Portland did an extensive street renaming and renumbering in 1931-1933. I'm fairly sure that the Mahoney's 1930 address of 769 SE Caruthers was renumbered as 2307 SE Caruthers, whichis the addresslisted for them in the directoriesIreviewed.

From Julie Re via message board on 16 Feb 2010: I have some pictures that my husband's granny took of the grave sites in Butte Montana of the 2 young children Edward and John. And a picture of Blanche with my mother-in-law in yellowstone in the 50s. I also have an old bible of P. Mahoney that has a section to write births, deaths, and marriages in. It is a little confusing, as it looks like different people have written dates in it over the years going way back to the 1850s. Hopefully I willbe able to view your tree. I am curious to see what other info you have and how we are related.

Bio from Facebook on 06 Jun 2010:
06 Jun 1888 -- Born in Glendale, Montana, Blanche B. ARBOUR was the eldest of 3 children of shoemaker, clothing store owner, and miner Louis-Joseph-"Alfred" ARBOUR and Ida A. TERRY. Just prior to her20th birthday,Blanche married 20-year oldEarl Matt CLARIDGE on 08 May 1908 in Rochester, MT. Their son, Earl V. CLARIDGE, was born later that year. Arranged in haste, theirs was not a marriage meant to last. By April 1910, thecouple had separated. By May 1910, they had apparently divorced. Afterfurther comparing of dates, one must conclude that the reason Blanche and Earl separated and subsequently divorced is due to his relationshipwith Anna. Blanche and Earl married in May 1908, and Earl was born later that year. By April 1910, Blanche and son Earl lived as boarders, perhaps with friends. Although the elder Earl was no longer around, Blanche still claimed her status as married. Perhaps this was just denial onher part and the couple really had divorced. Or perhaps they were still legally married even though Earl was in a relationship with Anna. In May 1910, the elder Earl was found living with his parents in MT and claimed himself to be divorced. The following December 1910, Earl and Anna's son Easton was born in MT. InaboutSeptember 1918, Earl and Anna had a daughter, Phyllis, born in MT. By January 1920, Earl, Anna, and their two children were living in Utah. ApparentlyBlanche and Earl really did divorce at some point because she also remarried, in about 1912,to Edward L. MAHONEY Jr. Over the next 5 years, Blanche and Edward had 3 sons, although 2 died while very young. Between January 1920 and 1923, Blanche, Edward, and son Joseph moved to Oregon, while herson Earl remained in MT. In fact, after the 1910 Census, Blanche was never again notably connected withher son Earl. Perhaps he reminded her too much of hisfather and she avoided him. In any case, after 1910, young Earl seems to have been taken in and raised by his maternal grandmother. Edward workedfor years in the meat-packing industry, both in MT and OR. He retired in 1955 as Vice President of Northwestern Ice & Cold Storage Co. Seventy-year old Edward died in Portland, OR, on17 March 1958. Blanche was86-years old when she died inPortlandon 08 November 1974. Both of them were buried in Riverview Abbey Mausoleum in Portland. Blanche's obituary claims that she had 3 grandchildren and 12great-grandchildren, although we know virtually nothing of them.She had 3 children with Mahoney

1729 After taking the train across the Blue Water Bridge into Port Huron, MI, on 1 Nov 1942, newlywed Madeline came to join Louis at his home in Capac, MI. She had come from the home of her father Alexander COSE in Stayner, ON, and had never before beenin the US. She was noted to be 5'3" with a medium complexion, brown hair, and blue eyes; she also wore glasses. Her birth place was recorded as Sunnidale, ON.

On the occasion of the application for her Resident Alien's Border Crossing Identification Card on 7 Jul 1945, Madeline claimed her occaption was factory machine operator. She was noted to weigh 128 pounds. This time, she said she was born in Stayner, ON.

1731 After their wedding, Belle and Will left Baton Rouge to establish theirhome in New Orleans, where he was in business as a sugar engineer. This is where they raised their three children, two daughters and a son. ARBOUR, Frances Belle (I3863)
 
1732 After their wedding, Frederick and Adeline settled near family in BatonRouge, where they had 12 children, four daughters and eight sons. The couple was confirmed to be living in Baton Rouge in 1840,in 1850, and in 1860. Frederick became oneof the highly respected men of the East Baton Rouge and Iberville Parishes, and accumulated considerable wealth inthe lumber business, which he lost duringthe Civil War by refusing to take the oath of allegiance. The reason for this may haveto do with Frederick's love of the southern way of life. In Sep 1850, he owned 30 slaves, many of whom probably worked at his mills. There were two Arbour sawmills, one at Grosse Tete and one at Baton Rouge, which were located on barges moored on the river front.It is not clear whether the sawmills were owned jointly by the elder Frederic as well as his son Frederick, or by the son alone. It is said, however, that the younger Frederickbuilt his large Baton Rouge home of red cedar from Tennessee which hadbeen floated down the river for a proposed railroad which would have connected Baton Rouge and Port Gibson. When the plan for the railroad fell through, Frederick obtained the lumber for his home. This was probablyin about 1831 or 1832. An interesting note about Arbour heritage hereis that even though they were separated by more than 2,000 miles, Arbours from all branches of the family pursued their fate within the lumber industry. Frederick's house,known as the Big House, rested on whatis nowthe corner of First Street and Louisiana Avenue in Baton Rouge. Many years later, the railroad put tracks down quite near the house. In fact, they were so close that sparks from the coal-burningengines often ignited fires on the house. Thissad factis the reason why the house waslater torn down instead of being preserved. During the Civil War, lifein Baton Rouge became too risky for the family so Frederick sent the women and children to live in Grosse Tete, Louisiana. After the War,Fredericwas forced to attempt to regain his life out of salvaged war losses. These trying times were no doubt the reason that Frederick did not live much longer. Of Frederick's extensive landholdings in Baton Rouge, 10 acres were still registeredas the "estate of Frederick Arbour" and remained within the family through 1962. At that time, Tallulah Arbour retained custody of the deed and paid the annual taxes in the event thatthe family should ever want to do anything with the property.

1733 After their wedding, George and Annie seem to have settled in New Orleans, Louisiana, and had five children, two daughters and three sons. Theyoung family lived in New Orleans in 1900, in 1910, andin 1920. In 1900, they lived at 1020 NorthBroad Street. In 1920, they lived at 1230 North Galvez Street. ARBOUR, George Edouard (I1966)
 
1734 After their wedding, Hilda and Charlie set up their home in Penetanguishene, where the population was 3,664 in 1920. There they had six children, four daughters and two sons, who were all born in Penetanguishene. Charlie was a firefighter with the Penetanguishene Volunteer Fire Department. In 1916 or 1917, their team won the Simcoe County Championship among volunteer fire brigades.

Oddly, a Baby Girl MARCHILDON, who died in 1970, is also buried with Hilda and Charlie in their polt in St Ann's Cemetery. Perhaps she was a granddaughter or a great-granddaughter.

From Linda CHARRON via email on 18 Feb 2009: Catherine-Hilda Arbour wasthe 5th of 11 children born to Wilfred Arbour and Mary Ann Lalonde. She was baptised in St Ann's Church by Reverend Theophile Laboureau on 28August 1898. Father Laboureau and Agnes Lalonde stood as Godparents. The family must have had close ties to the Father Laboureau to have asked him and for the Priest to have accepted the honour of Godparent.

She had 6 children

1735 After their wedding, Jean-Baptiste and Suzanne settled into St Sulpice,where they were recorded in the 1825 Census. Also living with them were their three children living at that time, as well as his parents, Jean-Baptiste and Catherine, and a 14-year old girl, perhaps someone to help with the babies. ARBOUR, Jean-Baptiste (I2804)
 
1736 After their wedding, Jules and Emma seem to have settled in Baton Rouge, where they had 10 children, four daughters and six sons. The family lived there in 1900 and in 1920. In 1900, they lived at 609 St Louis Street. In 1920, they lived at626 EastBoulevard. ARBOUR, Jules Emile (I2947)
 
1737 After their wedding, Merrille and Georgina established their home in Waubaushene, where they raised 11 children, five daughters and six sons. In 1901, the young family rented a three-room house on ¼acre on Concession 10, Lot 10, in Waubaushene. TheC'est ave?e acusaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»y lived in this community for almost their whole lives. The large household was completely bilingual: both English and French were spokenso all of the children grew up knowing both. However, as many of themleft home to work in the predominately English-speaking workplace, they nearly all forgot their first language. Only Pamela, Alda, Orval, andBud maintained their ability to communicate in French. In 1937, the family purchased their first car, a 1935Studebaker for $700. Their youngestson Bud learned to drive in this car and often drove his parents around visiting family and friends.
Merrille spent most of his life working for the Georgian Bay Lumber Company. In winter, he cut logs in the forest. In summer, he worked in thesaw mill in town. As a young family, they endured hard times and the daily challenges of the era. Their dedication to work did eventually payoff, though. In 1933, at the age of 60, Merrille was able to purchase a farm adjoining the village of Waubaushene.He carried on a mixed farming operation until his retirement in 1948 at the age of 75. He remainedon the farm until 1955. Children of the extended family and their friends fondly remember Merrille'sfarm, where they often played. They also went to pick morels. Taking a tin can with some butter, they would go into the fields,pick the morels, and cook them right there on a little fire. Picking violets at the farm became an annual affair. Easter was also a joyous time when family visited from Toronto. This was usually maple syrup-making time. They also came to hayin the summer.
In 1956, Merrille took up residence in the Beechwood Nursing Home in Penetanguishene. Georgina had been bedridden and paralyzed since experiencing a stroke in 1942 and had been a resident of the homesince 1950. InApril 1956, a large party was heldat the nursing home for Merrille andGeorgina to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. In addition to their 11 children and 37 grandchildren, they also had 20 great-grandchildren at that time. Like his father, Merrille was a laborer who workedhard all of his life, giving up only as old age set in. Merrille and Georgina died within a couple ofmonths of each other. He on 21 January 1957in Penetanguishene and she on 11 April 1957. They were buried next to each other inSt John's Cemetery inWaubaushene.
Merrille and Georgina are remembered by their children as being very good to them and extremely understanding parents. 
ARBOUR, Joseph-Merille (I1699)
 
1738 After their wedding, Pierre and Caroline lived in Joliette City for a time. By 1871, they lived in Ste-Emelie-de-l'Energie, where they had 17 children, eleven daughters and six sons. In 1871, Pierre was reported as a farmer in Ste-Emelie, aswere many of his brothers. Perhaps Pierre received one of the two Land Grants for property in Joliette County, Quebec, that were given to Pierre ARBOURs in 1876 and in 1880.

The family was still living in Ste-Emelie in 1881, in 1891, and in 1901. In 1901, they owned an eight-room house plus 10 outbuildings and one vacant house on 282 acres of the 1st Range, Joliette Canton.

Over their lives, Pierre and Caroline became godparents to seven familyyoungsters: nephew Octave HOULE in September 1873, niece Exerine ARBOUR in November 1877, grandson Eldege BLAIS in December 1886, grandson Homer Elize COUTU in March 1889, granddaughter Esther Eulalie COUTU in April 1896, grandson Joseph Thomas Camille ARBOUR in April 1901, and grandson Lucien ARBOUR in April 1905, all in Ste-Emelie. Pierre was also witness at the funeral of niece Georgiana ARBOUR in March 1879 in Ste-Emelie.

Six of Pierre and Caroline's children are known to have migrated to theUnited States of America to settle in the State of Massachusetts. Perhaps more of them also left Canada to weave their stories within the neighboring country.

--> Note on 19 Apr 2011: We now know that Pierre and Caroline lived in MA themselves for a time in the early 1880s. They were found there by Jun 1881, when daughter Rosalie died. They were there whendaughter Marie-Louise died in Mar 1882. They werestill there in Apr 1883, when son Adelard was born in Lowell. 
ARBOUR, Pierre (I1161)
 
1739 After their wedding, the bright young couple of William and Pamela settled in Waubaushene, but a year later tragedy came to their home. Dear Pamela never regained her health after the birth of their daughter MariaAva in early 1892. Pamela died on 24 June 1892 and was buried in St John's Cemetery in Waubaushene. Their baby girl followed shortly thereafter.
When William married second wife Zephyrine, they returned home to Waubaushene, where they had a son, Norman. Then came young Zephyrine's turn to depart this world. She died on 24 June 1899 and was buried in St Margaret's Cemetery in Midland.Our courageous William - weakened in heart but not in spirit - decided to take refuge with his parents for a time to collect himself.
Although uncommon grief seemed to beset William's marriages, he eventually decided to try once again. William married a third time to a woman named Florence Theresa GUERTIN in 1903. Florence was married earlier toa Mr. LeGARRY and had a son, Leo LeGARRY, whom she brought to live in William's house. Leo later served with the Merchant Marines.
At some point before November 1917, William and Florence moved their blended family to Espanola, Ontario, on the north side of the Georgian Bay, in the Sudbury District. Here, William continued to work as a lumberjack. William and Florence eventually had six children together, three daughters and three sons.
A family story tells that William was once involved in a fight in a lumber camp. A man stole his gold watch. Later in a bar, William saw the man place the watch on the table as his bet in a card game. The story says that during the ensuing fight, William killed a man, perhaps even the thief himself.
William's suspected death date of 1948 has been difficult to confirm. He supposedly lived in Windsor, ON, at the time but there seems to be noobituary in the Windsor paper. It has also been difficult to ascertainhis death record from the ProvinceofOntario.

1740 After their wedding, the young couple settled in Verner, Ontario, wherethey appear to have lived for the rest of their married years. Throughout his life, Albert was a dairy farmer, a lumberer, and later a gardener at his home. Albert and Laurenciaeventually had 14 children, four daughters and ten sons. Both Albert and Laurencia were a little on the short side, barely over five feet tall. Grandma was always on the go andfull of energy. In their retired years they kept a beautiful vegetablegarden. Grandpa used to take grandson Marc ARBOUR ice fishing. He knewthe best places to go on Lake Nipissing and would tell stories of earlier years, including when they were lumbermen who cut wood in the winter. Even at 70 years old, Albert used tosnowmobile eight miles to Marc's house to take him out on the lake fishing.

1742 After their wedding, Zoe and Octave only remained in Quebec for a shorttime, probably about two years. They then made the tremendous move from their hometown in Quebec all the way to the western shore of Lake Simcoe in Ontario. Although exact reasons may never be known, we can speculate that they made the move in order to reap the benefits of the growing lumber industry. Many of the large lumbercompanies in Ontario were in desperate need of hands to cut trees and operate their their mills. One of these lumber magnates was Henry W. SAGE, who opened a large mill at Belle Ewart, in Simcoe County, Ontario, in 1852, and was widely known as "King of the Trade." Word travelled to Quebec and many French-Canadians migrated for work to mills throughout Ontario. The Sage and McGraw Mill at Belle Ewart appears to have become the new GREGOIRE home. Zoeand Octave's second child was born in March 1866 in Quebec and their third child was born in May 1868 in Belle Ewart. This means the familymigrated during this time, most likely in the summer of 1866 or 1867. They were enumerated in the Census reports of April 1871, living in Innisfil Township, Ontario. 1871 was also the year Zoe and Octave became godparents to Charles GOUETT, the sonoffamily friends John GOUETT and Philomene PELLETIER. In addition, 1871 was the year that Octave was recorded in the Dominion Directory as being a laborer living in Belle Ewart. At that time, Belle Ewart was a flourishing village with a populationof600. Octave's sister Caroline GREGOIRE also appears to have moved with them to Ontario, perhaps as an aide with the children, perhaps to open new doors for her own future. Over the next several years, she became godmother to some of the family'syoungsters. At some point, Caroline married a man named Jules BOURGEOIS. Caroline was born in 1840 and died in1917. Jules died on 21 December 1910 at age 70. Both of them were buried in St Ann'sCemetery in Penetanguishene.

The GREGOIRE family remained in Belle Ewart at least through March 1872, before moving again. By this time, the stands of pine in that area had dwindled significantly. Further north in Simcoe County was the relatively young Georgian Bay Lumber Company, which had recently purchased more timber rights in northern Ontario and promised great growth. The Georgian Bay Lumber Company was headquartered in Barrie, the county seat of Simcoe, and had a central mill in Waubaushene. The Georgian Bay Lumber Company was so named because of its prominence in the Georgian Bay area. The Georgian Bay is the large, northeastern arm of Lake Huron, and is about 124 miles long and 50 miles wide. It is partially separated from Lake Huron by Manitoulin Islandand by the Bruce Peninsula. Numerous rivers, which drain the lake regions of southern Ontario, empty into the Bay. It is today linked with Lake Ontario by the Trent Canal system. Georgian Bay has a very irregular shoreline. Limestone cliffs line the western shore. Numerous bays, inlets, sounds, and islands mark the eastern shore, which cuts into the Canadian Shield. Modern vacationers frequent many of the islands, including the Thirty Thousand Islands and those of the Georgian Bay Islands National Park. Forestry has long been animportant industry in the region surrounding the Bay. The Bay was sighted in 1612 by the French explorer Etienne BRULÉ, the first viewing by a Caucasian. The Bay was laternamed for King George IV of Great Brità16 milieux défav's18 Rivitab» «tab»ain.

So the family moved once again, possibly by train, from Belle Ewart, through Barrie and Orillia, to Waubaushene. Zoe and Octave are confirmed to be in Waubaushene in February 1874, when their daughter was born. Inthe 1881 Census, they were recordedin Tay Township, Ontario. Octave was no doubt among the vast majority of residents who were millworkers earning between $25 and $35 per month. Waubaushene eventually became thelargest of the mill villages and also the most attractive. The charmingand neat little community held about 500 inhabitants, including about36 families. Each company-built house was laid out nicely and surrounded by a white picket fence. Temperance was the rule of the day in the strongly Protestant town. Our French-Canadian ancestors must have felt alittle out of place.

Between 1880 and 1883, the family moved again, this time just the relatively short distance to Port Severn, just to the north-northeast of Waubaushene. Their reason for this is unclear. Perhaps they felt more comfortable living among other French-Canadians instead of among the mostly-British Protestants in Waubaushene. By the 1930s, nearly all of the 200 or more residents of Port Severn were French-Canadian. Perhaps their sons were working in the Port Severn Mill or Octave was offered a better job there.

Zoe and Octave had nine children in all, although three of them were lost early in life. Zoe then died sometime after the 1881 Census, perhapsas the result of the birth of her last child in June 1883. It is unknown for sure when or where she died or where she was laid to rest, but she definitely passed away prior to September 1887, when Octave married again.
She had 10 children

1743 After Warren's death, Mattie moved to Orchards, WA, also located in Clark County, perhaps with one of her children. She still lived there at the time of her death.
