This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SOC.2ACE/1341 Message Board Post: I'm tracing descendants of Edward or John Edward Amero b. abt 1898 who married Pearl Thibodeau b. abt 1901. I believe he was the son of John Amero born about 1867 and Marguerite Doucet b. abt 1867. According to an Amirault website this John Amero was born in 1857 and was the son of Henry "Jenkins" Amero. The 1901, 1911, and his cemetery stone in the Sacred Heart R.C. Cemetery in Doucetteville all give MY John's year of birth as 1867. I believe MY John b. 1867 is found in the 1891 census in the second division of Marshalltown, household #199 which has a John Amero aged 23 with wife Maggie aged 23 and children Mary L. aged 2 and Ada P. aged 1. I think Mary L. is Lillian or Lil and Ada P is Ena B. I checked the Digby census at this site which has 1871, 1881, and 1891: http://www.rootsweb.com/~nsdigby/census/index/amero.htm and I think the only John Amero b. in 1867 belongs to this 1881 family: AMERO, Henry 44, Mary 42, Jane 19, Anna 15, John 14 I can't find them in the 1871 census. Does anyone know who this Henry Amero b. abt 1837 and wife Mary b. abt 1839 are? Also, I can't find John Amero in the Digby County birth records, nor can I find his marriage in the Digby County marriage records. Can anyone offer a source for his marriage to Margarite Doucet?
