Posted on: Polk County Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mn/Polk?read=296 Surname: STGEORGE ------------------------- Mary, Edward was the brother of my great-grandfather, William. The family consisted of: Antoine (b Apr 1866) Louis (b Mar 1868) Clement (b ?) Edouard/Edward (b ?) Etienne/Steven (b Jan 1876) Francois/Frank (b Apr 1880) William (b 22 Mar 1882) Sophie (b Dec 1887) Maxim (b Dec 1895). To the best of my knowledge, all my great-grandfather's siblings were born in Crookston, Minnesota, moved to Fort Macleod, Alberta sometime after the 1900 census and continued on to Yakima, Washington as you have said. My great-grandfather went east instead and moved to Fall River, Massachusetts in 1921. My grandparents in Providence, RI Conrad and Marguerite (St George) Cote have visited their cousins in Yakima a couple of times over the years. As for the Boiselle name, I don't have any in my lineage. I recommend you contact the American-Canadian Genealogical Society in Manchester, NH (www.acgs.org) of whom I am a member. Their library is probably about the best collection of French-Canadian info in the US. Thanks and good luck.
