Just yesterday I found the parents names of her grandmother. Her grandmother was Philomene Bell, born in NY state (we believe Malone)in either 1862 or 1863. She was married in St. James church in Manville, RI in 1887 and the record lists her father as Francoise Bell(or Baylle dit Bell) and her mother as Marie Malone. I also saw a Julia Bell as godmother on one of their children's babtism records. I believe there is a connection here. Let me know what you think. I would appreciate any more information you have about Francoise and Marie. Dot Schulz Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
