    3. Hi, We found quite a bit of information on your Monette family. Wedding certificate for Joseph MONETTE bride Margaret DENNIS residence of groom: Montpelier Date: Jan 5 1874 His age: 29 First marriage Occupation: Laborer Place of birth: Drummondville, Ca (assume Canada) Father: Mitchell Monette Mother: Margaret Wood Priest's name illegible. Wedding Certificate for Margaret DENNIS indicates in addition to the above that she is 18 years old, born in Montreal, father: Charles DENNIS; mother: Philomen Dale Death Cert. Joseph Monette 49 Years old Occ: Laborer Born: PQ (Province Quebec) died Sept 18, 1889 heart disease Died in Montpelier (does not indicate place of burial, but St Augustine's is the Catholic church in Montpelier. Their cemetery is on Lincoln Street. Write to the church at St. Augustine's Parish; 16 Barre Street; Montpelier, VT 05602.) Daughter's Birth Cert. Maggie M MONETTE born Middlesex Mother: Maggie ___________ Mother's Birthplace: Montreal Mother's Res: Middlesex Father: Joseph MONETTE Birthplace of father: Montreal Occ: Farmer Daughter Maggie married Charles MURPHY on May 13, 1889 in Montpelier. We did not have time to check on whether his wife remarried or died before him. Sorry. Interestingly, there is a family much like this family (ages a couple of years off, but who's counting) in Holyoke, Mass in 1880: Household: Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace Joseph MONETTE Self M Male W 37 CAN CAN CAN Maggie MONETTE Wife M Female W 26 CAN Keeps House CAN CAN Maggie MONETTE Dau S Female W 5 VT At Home CAN CAN Hattie KEARNS Other W Female W 30 CAN Dressmaker CAN CAN The additional fact that the daughter is born in VT gives credence to this being your family. Let me know if we can be of further help. Best, Kerrin McCadden and crew
