She and Albert JARRY seem to have migrated from Quebec Province as single people in 1919, and they seem to have migrated with another family. I have found them in the 1920 Census for Chicopee, MA, but I can't read the handwriting too well. The surname of the family seems to be something like .. DEANER (parents and children), and Albert and Yvonne and Emil (LEVESQUE ??) (sp?) were living in their home as boarders. Albert and Yvonne must have married shortly after the Census was taken in 1920, as their first child was born in either very late 1920 or in early 1921. I don't know what happened to their marriage as Mrs. Yvonne JARRY remarried in 1952. ========================== According to the 1930 Census, Albert JARRY and his wife Yvonne, both age 34, were living at 42 Ludger St (actually, Ludger Avenue) in the Aldenville borough of Chicopee, Massachusetts. The record indicates that both were 24 years of age when married, so your supposition that they married shortly after the 1920 census is on the mark. There are three children: daughter Jeannette, age 9, sons Armand, 8, and Roger, 4½. Also living there were Antoinette LAMOTHE, sister-in-law of the head of household (Yvonne's sister), age 26, and a boarder, Louis Lachance, age 52. Monty
Hi again, I have already thanked Monty separately, but I thought I would tell the List that another researcher and I have decided that the surname of the family which Albert JARRY and Yvonne LAMOTHE probably migrated with in 1919 was .. BERNIER. (Handwriting is very bad on this census sheet.) I have checked and didn't see that BERNIER family in Chicopee, but there was another BERNIER family there. The family Albert and Yvonne were living with in 1920 was: Charles (54) and Virginia (52) BERNIER (sp?) with daughters, Maria (22), Louisa (21), and Angelina (20) (Another boarder in the home looks like Emil LAROQUE ... (sp?), Age 19.) They seem to have come down together in 1919, and gone right to Chicopee, MA.
