Some of my Giroux ancestors left St. Anne (originally in Bourbonnais in 1852/3, later in St. Anne and then Aroma/St. Marys/Beaverville)in the mid 1870's for Dakota County, Nebraska, as well. They appeared with mangled name in the 1880 census for St. Johns, Summit Precinct in Dakota County, but always referred to living in Jackson NE, a small town near Hubbard and on the rail line to Sioux City IA, in later years, rather than Dakota County. They bounced back and forth between Dakota County NE and Story County IA until the 1890's when they moved to South Dakota. There was a decent-size French settlement not far away in western Clay County IA (nearest town to the north and east was Royal)where some of the Demers (aka Demarse) ended up with other St. Anne families, and this seems to have been tied into the migration into Dakota County (my gggrandmother was a Demarse). I believe that Vicki Buettner has more information on the Clay County IA group. Jody Boyd has a book on the Pioneers and Old Settlers of Dakota County that was somewhat interesting. I believe you can still get a copy through the Dakota County GENWEB site.

They ended up in Dakota County, Nebraska and are listed on the Jackson Township Census. My Giguerre line ended living near Hubbard (a French settlement) and Emerson, Nebraska. Also, my step gr.gr.gr. grandfather Antoine Allain (aka: Allen brother of my gr.gr. grandmother Cecila (Allain) Boudreau lived in Cloud County, Kansas.

I have Antoine Lambert, who is listed in the 1880 census of Mulberry Township, Clay County, KS. He is a brother to Peter and Gabriel, Peter is my direct ancestor. They were all in Will Co., Borbonnais in the 1850 census as shown. Also, the 1860 census of Kankakee Co., IL. I don't know where they were in 1870, but by 1880 they were in Benton Co., IN. Here is the 1850 census of Gabriel Lambert in Will Co., Borbonnais. Lomberel Gabriel 24 Illinois Lomberel Rosalie 23 Canada Gabriel 7 Canada Peter 5 Canada Marcellon 3 m Canada Antoine 1 Canada I have an obituary for Peter who died June 5, 1917 in Remington, IN. It does not mention Antoine as a survivor. Also, an obituary for Gabriel, Jr., who died Dec. 26, 1921. No mention of Antoine. Jan --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

Hello: Based on the ages of the parents and of the children I wonder if the four children were siblings. It will be interesting to see the names of the parents from the marriage records (assuming that they were married at Maternity BVM church). There was a Antoine Lambert (Married to a Catherine Breault) who had a couple of children baptized in Cloud County, Kansas. Louis was born Jun 13, 1880 and Delia was born May 14, 1884. Catherine was listed as being born in Illinois and Antoine was listed as being from Trois-Rivieres. This town might be worth exploring for some birth records of the children of Gabriel and Rosalie. richard graveline Georgia ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan Hibner" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 12:00 PM Subject: RE: [ILSTANNE] pioneer list > I have Antoine Lambert, who is listed in the 1880 census of Mulberry Township, Clay County, KS.
