Hi fellow researchers I have just broke my brick wall with the CREQUE family, as my grandmother had told me the name was La Creque. I have had a a few of wonderful people, to guide me into the right directions and sent me references to my direct line. Without them I would not be able to share this info. This is my line; Francis Creque b1807 NJ d 9/5/1871 m Ann ? b 1813 PA d 1/10/1901 1) male >From the 1840 census Ulysses, Tompkins County, NY it stated that there were 2 males under 5 years of age, 1 male between 15 and 20 and 2 males between the ages of 30-40 , 1 female under 5 (that's mine) and one female between the ages of 30 and 40. so I will put my g-g as # 4 child. 2) male 3) male 4) Emeline b 1836 Ulysses NY d 1918, Seneca County, NY buried Sheldrake NY m John L. Demun buried Sheldrake, NY a) Frank G. b) Frances/Fanny b 8/ 1857 m Edward Thurston Bryant b 8/1856 c) Minnie 5) Charles b 1838 Ulysses, NY 6) Abram/Abraham b 1840 d 7/22/1910 7) Clark S. b 1844 8) Francis b 1846 9) Wilmott David b 1847 d 8/25/1919 m Gertrude b 1854 d 10/29/1921 10) George b abt 1851 d 9/25/1878 11) Orvale/Orville b abt 1855 d 5/18/1925 The Creques were spelled Cregue in the 1840, 1850, 1860 census. The family members that have death dates are buried at the Trumansburg Grove Cemetery in Ulysses, Tomkins County, NY . On the 1850 Census, it also states with Francis' family, Elizabeth 84 stepmother b NY--the Tompkins County research added that she was the widow of Abraham. Also there are other Creques very close to mine and wonder if they may be brothers/cousins/uncles of Francis. They are Joseph, George and Herman C. Abram, John M., Abraham R. Would appreciate more history on this family. May God Bless, Deb PS. I apologize to all who are getting this message more than once.

Hello feloow researchers, I apologize for those who will recieve this more than once. I need to go through the story my grandmother told me before she passed. The MARCEAU ( not sure if this is the proper spelling, I wrote it how I think it should sound) came from France on covered wagons, through Canada and settled in NYC. MARCEAU married a LA CREQUE, a LA CREQUE married a DEMUNN, as I said this is what she told me. This is what I have found. My Great Grand was FRANCIS(FANNY) DEMUNN b1857 NY d 1930 Seneca County NY m EDWARD THURSTON BRYANT b 1845 NY d 1918 Seneca County NY. After going over some information I was sent I found a EMELINE CREQUE b 1835 d 1918 m JOHN L. DEMUN b 1829 d 1917 also buried in Seneca County, NY in the same cemetery. Needless to say I have tried possible spellings trying to find them in census or records, I have been unable to find them. I am reaching out requesting any help. Any french out there, I would like to know about life as I just recently found out about my french roots thanks for alls patience may God bless, Deb
