Surnames: DEMERS/DELISLE Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JBS.2ACEB/261.1.1 Message Board Post: mary was born in lyndonville VT 23 Nov 1900, married William C. Gelinas 17 Feb 1920. Died 20 July 1940. Mary DEMERS/DELISLE was raised at St. Peters Orphanage in Manchester NH until she got married. I looked at the 1920 and 1930 census and found the them and all the children listed, and I am now going page by page through the census for Hillsborough county, Manchester City. Mary DEMERS has a 1/2 brother Arthur DELISLE who was born in 1901, lived in NH and died in San Bernadino, CA. They Share 1 parent in common, the big question is which one, and was her last name DEMERS or DELISLE? Did the orphanage change her last name? That is all the info I have thus far. Thanx, Laurie
