Hi... Thanks to you and Laura, I think the family is coming together...your info from Salt Lake City surprised me with a wife named Elizabeth W. as family legend says the mother of these same children was named Belle Bean... I thought it possible that Belle might be what she went by instead of Beth for Elizabeth... then Laura gave me more info on the marriages of Amelia, Delia, and Edward listing the parents as Frank and Belle (Bean) DeForge...then she told me that Bean was the dit for Lefebvre which I didn't know, either...so, I was really thrilled when she sent a message that Frank DeForge of Highgate had married Louisa PHelps as 2nd wife in 1901.. listing his home as Highgate and his parents as Jerry and Adeline DeForge... she further told me that Jerry was Jeremie and Adeline's maiden name was Lavoie...
Here is the rest of her info... Descendents of Jeremie DeForge(Louis Robert4, Louis Robert3, Robert Deforges2 dit Picard, Nicholas or Nicolas Deforge1 dit Picard.. Jeremie, born 20 Oct.1824 in St Mathias, Rouville County, Quebec...died in StAlbans, Vt. July 10, 1892..married Adeline Lavoie Nov. 24, 1845 in St Cesaire, Rouville Cty, Quebec, dau. of Rene Lavoie and Francoise Hins.Jeremie died of Cancer at age 72..Children:
1. Marie Adeline b. 12 Oct, 1846... died 8/24/1847...
2. Louis Robert, b. 12 Nov. 1847
3. Frank, b. about 1851
4. David, b. abt 1854 @ St. Armand, Quebec married Mary Mc Carty 8 Jan. 1883
5. Philanda, b. abt. 1859 Highgate, married Henry Lovell, 27 Oct, 1878, Norwich, Vt.
6. Adeline, b. abt. 1864, married Fred Bressette 23 Nov. 1907 at Hartland, Vt.
7. William, b. abt. 1866 m. Rose Williams 21 May, 1885 at St. Albans, Vt.
8. Delia, b. abt. 1870 St. Arnard, Quebec, m. George Bailey 18 April 1887 St. Albans, Vt.both age 17.
I hope to make the connection from Nicolas/Nicholas DeForge to your line to Robert who came to Quebec from Picardie, France... can you add any info to this...I am very thankful to you and Laura for all the help you have given me...Ruth
