Giovanni born 1866 in Italy and Alphano Poloni born 1873 in Italy are listed in the 1901 Census of Canada. Both were married but I do not know the names of their spouses. Their address states Marchand Municipality, Labelle County, Quebec. Occupation given as wool maker and woodcutter.

Was or is there still a wool manufacturer in Marchand Municipality?????????

The Giovanni Poloni that I am researching was in Quebec at lease until 1905. Then Giovanni moved to the Silver country of Cobalt Ontario. His wife and child, Ernest Leo followed in 1910.

How can I confirm that these two Giovanni Poloni are the same person???????????

How can I learn the arrival date into Canada???????

I was curious, because I known where Canton Marchand is. And I also that there is a portion of the rivière rouge were the current is fast and that place is called "le rapide des italiens"
(italian's rapid). So on the site "www.ingeneas.com" you can find the names of your ancestors, and according to the census of 1901, there was 3 Poloni and on that site you also can ordered ($) copy of the civil records.

Thank you Evelyn. I have the civil records from ingeneas.com. I did not know the riviere rouge was in Quebec province. Do you have any information regarding the eshistance of a wool mill in the area of "le rapide des italiens" ? Can I write to Canton Marchand library?

According to a book on the "Parc Linéaire du P'tit train du nord", between 1896 and 1908 there was a wood mill owned by Andrea Villani, along the Rivière Rouge, in the municipality of Canton Marchand, and Italian peoples were employed by him. The mill burned in 1908. For more informations I think you can write to Société du Patrimoine de la Vallée de la rouge, 7393, BOUL CURÉ LABELLE APP 50 CP 742 , LABELLE QC, J0T 1H0.
