Leopold Lacerte - Canada>NH>MA>RI
Looking for parents/siblings of Leopold, b. about 1851 in Canada (French), married to Elizabeth ??, b. abt 1853 in Canada or Rhode Island.
In 1900, they are in Johnston, Providence Co., RI.Children in the home are:
Anna - 20
Delia C. - 17
Jemme? C. - 15
Edna E. - 13
Earnest J. - 12(Name may be Edward)
Rosena - 8
Lena - 7
Josephine - 5
In 1900, Elizabeth reports birthplace as Rhode Island but in 1920 (still in Johnston, Providence Co., RI) her birthplace is reported as Canada, which is probably correct.
In 1900, Elizabeth reports she has had 11 children who are all still living.She and Leopold have been married for 25 years - since 1875.The oldest children were reported born in MA, Edna in NH, and the youngest 2 in Rhode Island.
Another known daughter was Marie Elizabeth, said to be born about 1879 in NH, who married Wilfred (or Richard) Handfield and living in Providence, RI after their marriage and through the 1930s.
Any help anyone can provide would be very much appreciated.Also hoping to find the maiden name of Leopold's wife, Elizabeth.
Thanks!
