They were both born in France around 1800. Joseph is in the 1840 and 1850 Census records for Clarence township, Erie County, New York. By 1860, Joseph, Theresa and some children were in Washington County, Iowa. In 1870, the parents had moved to Randolph County, Illinois to be near their son Joseph. Joseph had the following children: Joseph (lived in Randolph Co, Illinois), John (married Esther DeMarce and died in Civil War), Benjamin (unknown location), Mike (lived in Keokuk County, Iowa and Barbara (unknown location). I'd like to correspond with anyone researching this family. Thanks! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
