Bonjour Salyann,
I tried to send you an email at the email address that appears here (sakluz@yahoo.com) but it looks like it bounced back to me, anyway here's my email to you:
Bonjour Salyann,
I had answered earlier today your message posted in the Breaux Forum on GENEALOGY.COM, but thinking about it, I think I may have a clue as to your family. Here is what you posted and my remarks about it:
>I am looking for "Loren Brow", b. 1815 in France, Married >to Margaret Spenard in Quebec, moved to Vermont and had 6 >children:
I have a Laurent Brault (b. 29 jan 1816, L'Acadie, Quebec) who married Marguerite Lanoue (8 may 1838 in St-Jean, Quebec) and who died 28 jul 1896 in Bennington VT.
>George Washington Brough (1855) - my great-great >grandfather
I have one of Laurent's child that was named George Brough (b. 2 oct 1855 in Hinesburg VT) who married Mary Etta Harrington on 1 nov 1874 in Fall River, MA and who was buried 17 jun 1920 also in Fall River MA. Could that be your great-great grandfather ? I have 7 children for that couple: Jean-Laurent, Ida, George W., Henry James, Harriet, Mary Lucy and Francis Judson.
>Mary (1842)
I also have a Marie born ca 1842.
>Elizabeth (1846)
And also an Elizabeth born ca 1846.
>Matilda (1850)
A Marie Mathilde b. 28 jan 1850 in Henryville, Quebec.
>Peter (1852)
A Pierre (Peter) b. 3 may 1852 in Burlington VT.
>Mahala (1854)
In 1854, I have a Marie b. 18 apr 1854 also in Burlington VT.
>Our family records indicate that the latest generations >(starting w/ Loren's children) use "Brough", he was using >"Brow" and the original may have been either "Breault" or >"Breaux". (I have been told by family to rhyme it with >"cow".) Also, I know that many of the French names were >hacked up pretty badly during immigration, so I am also >looking for "Loren" as "Laurent", etc.
Brault, Breault in french sound like Bro in english.
>I know that George relocated to Fall River, MA, and I >believe some of his siblings did too.
The siblings I have for my George were all born in Fall River MA. Would your grandfather be in there ?
>Any connections or recommendations would be appreciated!
I think I may have the right family, what do you say ?
Au revoir,
