Posted on: FONTAINE Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/f/o/FONTAINE/queries/28 Surname: Fontaine, Binet, Gagniez ------------------------- Hi, I have her in my geneology papers, She's listed as M. Ursule marieé 1856 a Pierre Binet, Ste Marie, and her parents were Jean Fontaine and Ursule Gagniez. Jean (Baptiste) Fontaine, born Feb. 14, 1805, a St. Henri, marie Aug. 28, 1832, Ste. Marie Usule Gagniez, fille de Pierre Gagniez dit Belavance et Marguerite. I can go back further on the Fontaine side, but that's it. I don't have the list of the children born to Jean Fontaine and Ursule Gagniez, that's where our family breaks off and we follow Fenelon (Leon) Jacques Fontaine (who would be the brother of M. Ursule Fontaine, married to Binet. I think that this information was taken from a book by Frere Eloi, 'Les Genealogies de la Beauce'. I hope this helps. Cheers, Lise Fontaine

Posted on: FONTAINE Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/f/o/FONTAINE/queries/26 Surname: BINET, BINETTE, FONTAINE, PAZOTTE, ALLAIRE ------------------------- Melina Binette married Cyrille Allaire in Biddeford, Maine January 25, 1892. The record of Victoria Allaire states that the name of the parents are Pierre Binette and Tharsille Pazotte. Other researchers feel that the Pazotte is Fontaine??? But I cannot make the connection of Melina to this family or find any "Pizotte." St. Joseph Book states the name of only the father. Does anyone have the marriage of Tharsille Fontaine to Pierre Binette which would include this child, Melina, and the marriage? Tharsille Fontaine married Pierre Binette in Ste.

Ah, you must be going to visit the marriage (and burial) place of Etienne Fontaine. Even though he is one of my croocked ancestors (paternal & maternal lineage, not straight paternal), I have not been there yet. Came close when I visited Levis and Quebec City awhile back. At that time, I was chasing other ancestors and sight seeing. Quebec City is nice, worth a side-trip. Folks, please remember to check your TO: heading and to PLEASE delete the extra text at the end of the message. Extra text slows down servers and is just plain annoying to look at. :^) Tony Fontaine, list manager ----- Original Message ----- sent privately to me by accident From: Lise Fontaine Hi all, I am going to be in the Quebec city area for two months - January and February , and I plan to go to Ile d'Orleans, has anyone been? anything to check out especially? any advice? much thanks Lise Fontaine At 10:14 16/11/00 -0500, Tony Fontaine wrote: >Since the list has been quiet for a while, I'm just writing to test (to make >sure it still works) and invite anyone with questions to ask.

Unfortunately, I do not have the street number on Elm Street. Making an assumption from a census that Joseph was the father is VERY dangerous. You see, most Catholic French-Canadian males had the first name of Joseph. Just as most Catholic French-Canadian females had the first name of Marie. Many did not use this name, but the name that followed for everyday use. The custom of naming Joseph and Marie is from the parents of Jesus Christ. So you see, Joseph could even BE Antoine, but unlikely since he was most likely in Manchester, NH at the time of daughter Alice's birth. Also realize that Antoine's parents may not have moved to Biddeford, ME. In 1890, he was approximately 34 years old and fully capable of living on his own. His parents may have stayed in Canada. Besides, in 1900 he was on Elm Street in Manchester, NH (did I say Biddeford, ME?). So you need to check the 1890 NH census, not the ME census. Tony Fontaine www.geocities.com/Heartland/Farm/5233/ ----- Original Message ----- From: jkerttula Tony, I discovered in the 1890 census of Maine, a Joseph Fontaine that lived on 107 Elm Street in Biddeford, Maine. Your recent email to me said that Antoine was living on Elm Street in Biddeford in 1900. Did your research happen to mention the # on Elm Street? I was wonder if perhaps Joseph Fontaine was Antoine's father. Let me know what you think. Judith

Both born in Canada app. 1838. There is indication that Joseph may be on the PION dit LAFONTAINE line, although I have no documentation for that, and don't know when the PION would have been dropped, or the simple FONTAINE adopted. The only information I have is 1. the birth record of their daughter, Mary, born Oct 23, 1868 in Westerly, RI---parents listed simply as Joseph and Philomena. 2. the marriage record of their daughter , Mary, married May 4, 1884 in Woonsocket, RI to Joseph Moreau. She and Joseph had 7 children that I know of. No parental information supplied. Mary was known as Antonia at the time of her marriage, listed as Antonia on her death certificate, and listed as Annie on the census records. 3. the death certificate of their daughter. She died in Riverside, RI on July 13, 1960. Parents listed simply as Joseph Fountain. No mother's name. 4. I have some biographical information on Walter Fontaine of RI, John Baptiste Fontaine, and Charles Fontaine, grandfather of Walter, who was born in St. Hyacinth, Canada. Walter owned property in the same area as my GGgrandmother, Antonia, and our family history states a connection to St. Hyacinth. I have just recently been told that the above are definitely of the PION DIT LAFONTAINE line, and feel very strongly that there may be a connection with my GGgrandparents. John Baptiste has the correct date and place of birth to be a brother or cousin to the Joseph that I seek. I have not yet, however, found a connection between my Joseph and this line. I am also looking for any information on the siblings of John Baptiste Pion dit Lafontaine, b. in 1836 in St Hyacinthe, QC, and d. 25, May, 1895 in Woonsocket, RI. He married Elodie "Ella" Prairie in Uxbridge, Ma. His parents are Charles Pion-Fontaine and Sophie Olivier. If you have any information on either the siblings of John Baptiste PION DIT LAFONTAINE or Joseph FONTAINE m. to PHILOMENE, LAST NAME UNKNOWN, I would be very appreciative. I have been at a dead end for 2 years with this line. Of course, I would be happy to exchange any information that I have. Thank you. Sincerely, Mary Ilene Trainor
My name is Caroline Crane Litkenhous. I am related to the Fountains on my mother's mother's side of the family. My gr-grandmother, Minnie May Martin, was the second wife of Jason C. Fountain. His first wife was Rebecca Holland, she had three daughters and a son Homer, but he died about a year after birth. My gr-grandmother also produced all girls so the name did not survive but the family love and pride did. A few years ago I ran across the story of the Hugenouts of St.Lo, Normandy. Now I am trying to trace the bloodlines back. I don't know if Nicholas first settled in MD. and then moved to NC, but I do know James Fountain and his wife came to IN by the Wilderness Road when the territory wasn't officially open. I know this is sketchy, but I can supply more information. Thank You

>From Kathy Carto Hannon: I've hit the proverbial "brick wall." Looking for information on Marguerite (Mary) ROBERT dit FOUNTAIN. She lived in Canada, probably Perrys Mills or Laprairie. She married James CARTO (aka Jacques ARTAUT or HERTAUT.) (It is said that he was a furrier that worked for John Jacob Astor and traded w/ the Northern Native Americans.) I am searching for proof that these two are the parents of Jerome Millien CARTO. Margaret (Mary)and (Jacques) James appear to have had at least two children: Jerome A Millien CARTO b. 26 May 1836 in Perry Mills, Canada. Jerome entered the US 1837. He married Eleonore PROSPER 25 Nov 1863. They lived in Champlain, NY and Hoyoke, MA. Jerome died in 1902 in Massachusetts. Eleazer CARTO born May 1846 in Moores, Clinton County, NY and married Matilda May ROY of Champlain, NY. ----------------- Can anyone help her? My guess is she is on the ROBERT dit LAFONTAINE line. Maybe Marie Robert-Lafontaine b.30-May-1814 in St-Marc-sur-Richelieu (don't have marriage though). Tony Fontaine in Maryland
