She is a true ARBOUR through both lines of parentage. As a young woman, Angelina seems to have given her wings a little stretching. Her first trip to the United States was on 31 October 1923. Her next trip came the following June. In June 1924, Angelina travelled to the US via the port of Quebec City, QC, and was headed for New Britain, CT, and her brother Joseph's house at 364 Elm Street. She was noted to be 5'7" tall with a medium complexion, brown hair, and brown eyes. When she was 40-years old, Angelina decided to settle down when she married Joseph-Adelphis FORTIER on 08 September 1945. Adelphis (aka Adolphis) was 20 years her senior. The couple had no children. Adolphis died in St-Georges-Ouest, QC, on 31 January 1964. Angelina lived another 27 years before passing away in St-Raphael on 23 November 1991.
