They lived on Beaver Street. Hi, Alan! I had Pierre and Azilda in my database, I had a birthdate of Jun 1848 for him -- probably from the 1900 Census. I did have his death date, though. I have 4 Feb 1867 as their marriage date, I'll have to change that. I have children listed: Melvine (m. Archie Olena), Mary (m. William Olena, Henry, Mary Josephine (m. Napoleon Marion), Anne (m. Mose Cote), Peter b. 1879, and Joseph b. 1884. > My question: does anyone have information on who > Pierre's parents were?

If Pierre's family is who Jack said they possibly could be, they would be Joseph Boudreau and Judith-Jos�phe DOXTODER. The name DOXTODER I have found in Illinois records as DOCTATEUR, DEXTRADER, STRODER, STRUDER, STUDER, and I can't remember what all else. LOL Joseph & Jos�phe had a son named Peter in the 1860 Census, he is listed as being 13, if I remember correctly (can't find my book at the moment). I did not have a family for him. Actually, I guess I didn't have any families for any of their kids, this is what I have: Descendants of Joseph Boudreau Generation No. 1 1. JOSEPH6 BOUDREAU (�TIENNE5, �TIENNE4, ANSELME3 BOUDROT, MICHEL II2, MICHEL1) was born 1818, and died 12 Dec 1862 in Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. He married JUDITH-JOS�PHE DOXTODER 03 Aug 1841 in Blairfinde, Qu�bec, Canada, daughter of JEAN-BAPTISTE DOXTODER and JOSETTE GERVAIS. JUDITH-JOS�PHE DOXTODER was baptized 30 Aug 1823 in Blairfinde, Qu�bec, Canada, and died 14 Aug 1894 in Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. Children of JOSEPH BOUDREAU and JUDITH-JOS�PHE DOXTODER are: i. JOSETTE BOUDREAU, b. 1842. ii. ROSELLA BOUDREAU, b. 1843. iii. JOSEPH BOUDREAU II, b. 1844. iv. PETER BOUDREAU, b. 1847. v. CHARLES BOUDREAU, b. 1848; m. MARY JANE CHRISTIE?. vi. ELAIR BOUDREAU, b. 1850. vii. ZEPHIERE BOUDREAU, b. 1852. viii. EDWARD BOUDREAU, b. 1853, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. ix. PHILOM�NE BOUDREAU, b. 1854, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois; d. 12 Sep 1857, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. x. MALVINE BOUDREAU, b. 21 Aug 1856, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois; d. 28 Oct 1956, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. xi. LOUIS BOUDREAU, b. 1858. xii. ALFRED BOUDREAU, b. Jul 1860, Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Illinois. My great-great grandfather Lucien BOUDREAU married Agnes STRODEUR -- he was the son of Joseph's younger brother Charles (who married Marguerite GAREAU dit ST. ONGE), and she was the daughter of Jos�phe's younger brother Georges (who married Martine LaVOIE). If Joseph & Jos�phe are your Pierre's parents, I have both of their lines back.
