Another inquiry for the group. Melissa Lahue was the daughter of Peter Lahue (i.e., Pierre Lague) and Amanda Ranville (i.e, Monique Rainville). She shows up in the 1850 Vermont census living in her father's household in Richford.. She next shows up in the 1860 census in her father's household in Berkshire. However, she now has the last name of Collette. With her are three children (all named Collette): Napoleon (age 9), Charles (age 7) and Jeremiah (age 1). The Vermont Vital Records has a marriage record for her showing her marrying a Jerry Collette in Aug 1850. I haven't found Jerry in the 1860 census. A couple weeks ago, information came up that said that Jerry Collette had enlisted in one of the Vermont regiments, was captured and then died in Andersonville Prison. The records for Andersonville show that a Joseph Collette, from VT, died there in June 1864. Supposedly, Melissa remarried to a "Jeprhion" Laviolette (or Lovelett), moved to Minnesota, had more children there and then moved back to Vermont. So, I'm looking to see if anyone is following the Collette, Laviolette and Lovelett families and whether anyone has information on what happened to the three Collette boys and who might be descended from Melissa Lahue and Jephrion Laviolette. Also, I'm trying to find out where in Minnesota that they moved to and where they came back to in Vermont. Thanks for any replies. Jim Lahue
