I'm researching the Gendron family from Kaskaskia Island. Cyprian (Sip) Gendron is listed in the 1883 Patrons List, History of Randolph, Monroe, and Perry County. Does anyone own a copy of this book, or have access to see if there is a biography? It lists his first wife as Genevieve Buatte, second wife Mary Page. He is found in the 1880 and the 1900 census, the only one's I have been able to access so far. His children in the 1880 census are listed as Alexander L., age 9, Sarah, age 11, Lolie E. age 2, and Mary L. age 9 months. I don't know for sure, but suspect that the child Alexander L. is my husband's great grandfather. "My" Alexander married Ellen Barnes, also in Kaskaskia. Does anyone have any information on this family? I would appreciate any and all help! Also.....where is the best library to do research on this area? Thank you! Lisa Gendron
