Notes - Alfred was about 11-years old when he moved with his family from Quebecto Ontario. As a young man, Alfred witnessed his brother Joseph's wedding in Midland in August 1896. After their wedding, the young couple initially settled in Waubaushene. By April 1901, the family had moved to a house on 4th Street in Midland. They owned a one-story, seven-room house on a regular city lot of one-fifth of anacre. Alfred earned $320 that year at the mill. A couple of years later - in August 1903 - the budding family experienced a modern-day miracle when Midland's community electric power system went intoeffect. Alfred and Delia had six children, four daughters and two sons. In April 1907, Alfred also became godfather to his cousin's daughter VelmaARBOUR in Waubaushene.
