LAMIRANDE
Though the stone reads "Lamirandre," it actually is incorrect and should be Lamirande. While this tombstone cannot be read as it is very worn and faint, we were fortunate to obtain a correction (and an older photograph showing the stone intact) from a family member, Mr. Ed Lamirande,a great-grandson, who provided the following information on this tombstone: "I was never able to find out why the family surname was spelled incorrectly. Felix Arbour died on 3 Feb 1886, according to his Holyoke certificate of death, not March "Mars 1887." Felixwas Theodore Lamirande's father-in-law. Theodore's wife, Malvina Arbour (Picard from a previous marriage) is also buried there. Theodore died on 8 Jan 1908 and Malvina died on 19 Feb 1939. The remaining names are some of the children of Theodore and Malvina." Specialthanks to Mr. Lamirande for providing this information!
[http://www.rootsweb.com/~mahampde/cem/shadley/pb/bk/bk-557.html]

According to at least one source, Felix was born about 1805 in Marieville, StCesaire, QC, which we know now tobe incorrect.

According to the index for Felix's Death Registration, he died on 03 Mar 1886.

From email to Denis ARBOUR on 11 Oct 2010: Ok, Denis, here are all the copies of the little girls' records: Celina's baptism, Celanire's burial, Amaryllis' baptism, and Celanire's burial. Do you think the second burial for Celanire should actually have been attributed to Amaryllis? Did her parents really forget what they named her? Please let me know what you think.

From Denis ARBOUR via email on 19 Oct 2010: No, I don't think Amaryllis' parents forgot what they named her but perhaps the priest did. We know, from the burial record, that her father could not read and neither did the witness. Perhaps the priest made a mistake when he wrote the name, but nobody could tell . . . What do you think?
