    3. Norman Simoneau.. a neighbor down the street remembers great uncle "Ben" as he went by. He had a large farm on Millham St. which he sold. The family moved to Harrington Ct. in town. "Yeh, I also remember John, he married and bought the farm and took care of his father" Anyways, I'm from Marlborough and this post peaked my curiousity. So I did some research on the family in the census of 1910 and 1920. The following is what I found. Curious. when Mary ends up on Harrington Ct. in 1920, there's no Cyprien (Cyprian) yet he is still living. Maybe he was on the farm at the time. Cyprian Simoneau was born May 21,1858 in Canada and came to the US in 1860, married Mary born March 12,1861 in Canada and came to the US in 1865. She became a citizen in 1882. They married 1878 in Marlborough. They had Arthur S. born 1888, Charles C. born 1885, Edward T. born 1891, Stacy a daughter born 1893, Francis V. born 1895, John P. 1896 and Anna V. born 1899. In 1910 Cyprian owns his own farm on Elm St., sons Arthur and Edward are sole cutters in a shoe factory, daughter Stacy is a day hand in a shoe factory and son John was an errand boy in a shoe factory In 1910 son Charles C. at age 25 has been married for two years to Florence age 21. He is employed as a shoe maker in a shoe factory. They have had one child Elmer born 1909-10 In 1920 wife Mary at age 58 rented on Harrington Court with son Aurthur age 38 who was a manager, son Charles C. age 35 employed as a finisher in a shoe factory, son John P. age 23 employed as a cutter in a shoe factory, grandson Elmer age 11 and grandson Edgar C. age 9. In 1920 son Edward at age 29 was living with his mother-in-law on Versaille St.. He married Mary Boudreau who was age 39 at this time. His mother-in-law was Mary Boudreau who came to the US in 1863 from Canada and became a citizen in 1900. Edward was self employed as a Lawyer. He would become Marlborough's 19th Mayor in 1922 - 23 The Boston Evening Globe on Saturday May 20, 1922, ran the following announcement on page two under the heading: "MARLBOROUGH": "The golf course of the Marlborough Country Club will be formally opened Saturday, June 3, 1922. Among those who will be present are Governor Cox, Mayor Curley of Boston, and Mayor Simoneau of Marlborough. One of the feature events will be an 18 hole contest between Ouimet and Guilford." He waslternate delegate to Republican National Convention from Massachusetts, 1928; candidate for U.S. Representative from Massachusetts 3rd District, 1940. His picture is here http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~historyofmarlborough/marlboromayors.h tm In 1920 son Francis at age 26 rented on Broad St. in 1920 he was employed as a laborer in a shoe factory. His wife Edna H. was employed as a sorter in a shoe factory. Three sons Francis V., Edward T. and John P were vetrans of WWII. John P went by John but I believe his first name was Pierre. BTW: The following is in my guest book I am now working on my husbands mothers family. That would be Simoneau(Louis Napoleon) and Manning(Mary A. ). She was born in Marlborough. As I was told Louis had a large family of Simoneaus in Marlborough.Louis had a brother that was a superior court judge so he told.Louis' parents were Cyprian Benjamin Simoneau and Marie Louise Duhamel.(both died in Marlborough). I am looking to find more of the family. It is understood that Louis has numerous siblings! The story was also told that Louis was once on a jury where a man was wrongly convicted of murder as someone else confessed on their death bed. Does this sound familiar to anyone??? I would love for someone with knowledge of the Simoneau and or Manning family or better yet a relative of either to contact me. I can be reached at: sisbubwilhawg@metrocast.net or my backup address: Mskay1951@excite.com. Please someone contact me if you can give me any info.. Thanks In Advance for your anticipated willingness to help. Kay Kay Mahoney <sisbubwilhawg@metrocast.net> OBTW: Cyprien and wife are here: (In French) http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~simoneau/simoneau/pag23.htm Anyways. I will make a sincere attempt at finding their grave. St. Marys is on the side of a hill and I'm not to swift at walking. I will also try to find the house, Norm says it's still there, and take a pic of it also. Not today though for it is raining. I am also trying to contact another Simeneau I know to see if he is related. Email me at john.buczek@comcast.net PS: The closest shoe factory to where they lived on Elm St. would be the S.H. Howe shoe factory. Here is a picture of it. http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~historyofmarlborough/shoefactories.ht m#SHOE PPS: He must have bought the land and farm after 1900, for the map I have does not show the name. -----Original Message----- From: KPhill2906@aol.com [mailto:KPhill2906@aol.com] Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2006 5:54 PM To: MAMIDDLE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [MAMiddle] St. Mary's Cemetery, Marlborough, MA Dear Fellow Researchers: I am hoping to find someone that would be willing to locate and photograph the gravemarkers of my great grandparents?
