Happy New Year!
Thanks for responding.As far as I know, Josephine Sirois' family was from Limestone (?), Maine.A cousin of mine remembers that he used to drive my great grandfather, Joseph Martineau up there, even after his wife died and he had remarried, because he was very close to her family.Josephine was only 28 when she died.She was my grandfathers mother.She is buried here in Fall River (Notre Dame).But my cousin said that she had at least one brother (who had a very large family) and also a sister.There might have been more.She died in 1899 (so that makes her born around 1871).I looked up the Sirois name in the Maine area, and there are quite a few.Her father was Michel Sirois and her mother's name (I believe) was Suzanne Pelletier.I will get more info as I am going to try and get her death certificate which will have her place of birth and her parents.I have been unable to find an obituary but I have not checked out the french newspapers of the time.Let me know if any of this rings a bell.
Carol Martineau-Gafford
