Hi, I am looking for the parents of Joseph GOODROE and Julia BURSEY. In 1880, Joseph GOODRO,49, Brick maker, wife Julia, 45, and children Isreal, 25, Julia,24, Emma,23, Joseph, 20, George, 15, Agnes, 11, Ida, 9, and Fred,5 were living in St. Albans, VT. According to the census Joseph and the 3 oldest children Isreal, Julia and Emma were born in Canada. Emma GOODROE (3-18-1857 to 2-10-1935)married Edward BUSHEY (9-15-1857 to 5-19-1933). Their children were Agnes L. , Oscar G. , Arthur , Nellie M., Anna B. and Walter E. BUSHEY. Agnes was my grandmother. George GOODROE(1864-1947)married Rosalie BOMBARD (1871-1954). Thanks, Mary Alvarado alv6011@aol.com
Aloha Mary, Sounds like you may be looking at Franco-Americans. GOODROE=GAUDREAU and BUSHEY=BOUCHER or BOUSQUET. Seems to me that you need to find either the church or civil record of the marriage of Joseph and Julia. That marriage likely occurred in Quebec and likely about 1854. Use the French names if you search in Quebec. Where do you live? Maybe I can lead you to some resources for researching Quebec marriages.
