Wow! Thanks SO much..........I have had no luck finding out anything about these people prior to this. Now that I have more names, dates and locations, I might unearth more...... They were another pair of grandparents to my brothers and me when we were young. Not by birth, but by love. Wonderful, wonderful people. Fred had had a heart attack, and wasn't in the best of health. It was also during the Depression years and no jobs to be had. I remember he did a little carpenter work. They had erected a "temporary" house on their lot, expecting to build a bigger and better one later. But with the depression and his health, it never happened. They had the poorest house in the neighborhood, but the biggest hearts. EVERYONE flocked to their home, to sit on the wobbly porch in the summer, or gather around the little oil burner indoors in the winter. I never knew their background, as my family moved out of state when I was in high school and they died soon thereafter. Fred died before Eva........ he had a bad heart, even when I remember him as a kid. Thanks again for helping me with these much-loved people. mas -----Original Message----- From: can-usa-migration-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:can-usa-migration-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Lisa Lepore Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2009 10:50 PM To: can-usa-migration@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [CAN-USA-MIG] Guillet m Sweet Hi MA Eva and Fred were married in Athol MA on 26 April 1904 by James W.
