The following was gathered by my aunt Mildred Pepin Hanson and given to me by one of my older brothers. I do not know the source material that she worked from, but knowing her, I am sure that it was triple checked. (I am not sure who got her material after she died.)

Joseph Pepin was born May 5, 1834 and died January 17, 1896. He married Matilda Morrisette (who was born February 6, 1838 and died September 18, 1914) on August 6, 1854.

They had 16 children:
Matilda Gertrude Pepin       May 7, 1855
Victorine Pepin       January 1, 1857
Mary Pepin       September 12, 1858
Adessa Phillomine Pepin       March 26, 1860
Angelica Azilde Pepin       January 15, 1862
Joseph Dusire Pepin       September 10, 1863
Anthony Baptist Pepin       May 17, 1866
Louis Pepin       October 2, 1867
Peter Oliver Pepin       September 15, 1870
Amelia Eleanor Pepin       March 5, 1872
Victor Pepin       December 24, 1873
Eugene Abraham Pepin       June 14, 1876
Julian Theodore Pepin              April 2, 1878
Augustus Jerome Pepin       June 5, 1880
Ferman (Fermin or Fermen) Soloman Pepin       May 6, 1882

(I actually met Ferman. I am named for both him and his brother Anthony Baptist. He left me his watch when he died. He died of a heart attack. His second wife found him slumped over the bath tub.)

I descend from Eugene Abraham Pepin who was born June 14, 1876 and died of pneumonia on June 25, 1924. He married Louisa Maggie Hansen (who was born February 23, 1885 and died September 25, 1969) on July 4, 1900.

They had 8 children:
Earl Eugene Pepin       April 2, 1901
Julia Pepin Antiel       July 9, 1902
Herman Pepin              October 29, 1903
Elsie Pepin Townsend              December 5, 1906
Mildred Pepin Hanson       October 16, 1909
Evelyn Pepin Chambers       April 21, 1911
Howard Abraham Pepin       April 14, 1922
Jean Pepin Thore Welch       June 18, 1924

They have all passed on.

As an interesting aside, of the three boys, my father, Howard, was the only one to have male offspring. So my brothers and I are the Pepin branch from Eugene Abraham Pepin.
