Hi, I would like information on my Desjardins history / past / background - where they were before they came to Quebec and when they came to Quebec, ect.!! My Grandmother's father, Joseph Pelletier married Adelle Desjardins on Oct. 29, 1889 in ME. I think they came to ME, separately, around 1885 or so from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, but not sure on the dates. I was told Adelle's father was Pierre Desjardins, but I was only told that her mother's name was Justine and I'm not sure if that's what it was. Adelle died around 1904, leaving Joseph with 4 small children to take raise. He remarried in 1905 to Ezilda Charron (anyone know anything about this last name either?). I don't know if she had any children, but I don't think so. I would like to find as much information as I can on the Desjardins and Adelle's family....siblings, her parent's and their siblings, ect. I would also like to find any of their descendant's to talk to get to know that side of my family?? Any h! elp would be very appreciated!! Please help me if you can!! If you know anyone that might be able to help me please give them my e-mail address so they can get a hold of me. I would love to hear from anyone with any possible information even if it's just information on the name and where they came from!! Thank you. Virginia (Corkum) Wheeler from Florida by way of my Dad's parent's in MA.,his grandparent's from ME.
