Hello,
Josephine Besancon, daughter of Conrad, married George Bailey in Buffalo, NY.They are listed in the 1870 Louisville, KY census.I beleive Conrad is actually still alive at the time, but going by "Victor" in the census.As you know, he also had a son Victor:
1870 Jefferson County Census, Louisville Ward 9:
Bailey, George 35 CarpenterNew York (Parents also born in France)
Josephine 35 France
Edward 12 New York
Fannie 10 Kentucky
Victor 5 Kentucky
Willamina 1 Kentucky
Besancon, Mary 68 Switzerland
Victor84 Switzerland
Mary and Victor have same age difference as Conrad and Mary in 1850 Erie County as well as Passenger list.The whole family came to New York in 1848 aboard the St. Denis from Le Havre, France.They all list as born in France.
I would appreciate any other information you have on this family and if you have record of Josephine and George's marriage in Buffalo.
