I, too, am a descendant of Phillippe Cote - married to Josephine. He was my great-grandfather. My grandmother is Florence Cote Campeau.
Elzear Cote, son of Jean and Marie Massicotte, married Abegaile Cephise-Zephise Laveau (dau. of Francoix-Xavier & Angele Sauvageau) came to US in 1880. Had children Amanda (8/26/1892), Philippe J (March 1877), Jeffrey-Geoffrey (Sept 1888), Ledia (Feb 1889), Mary-Louise (Dec 13, 1895 and Ernestine (Aug 1887)
Phillippe J. Cote married Josephine M. Desmarais 11/16/1897 - these are my maternal great-grandparents.
I have quite a bit of info dating back to the 1700's (Francois Lemire).
