Notes |
- she was born on a trip north from new Orleans to Philadelphia. According to her sister Cecilia's notes in the family records,
"Nous sommes partié pour le nort le 27 d'Avril 1851."
"Nous sommes arrivé de Nord let 3 Septembre 1851."
In 1870, I assume that "Laura, Carlene, and Emma" are Daniel Maupay's children living with their oldest sister Cecilia and his son-in-law Gustave Pitard's family:
