My gggrandfather was Stanislas Chaput, and his parents were Charles Chaput and Marie Desange Sauve. They had other children also. Burial is listed as BMVM Catholic Cemetary, Bourbonnaise. They migrated from Canada and two weeks after arrivingm the whole family died (unknown cause) except Stanislas. >> Maybe there is a newspaper article? accident or disease I suppose.
