Information on the Gadbaw name
I'm 22 yrs old and I am trying to research my family, and not having a whole lot of luck cause I don't have a lot of info to start on. My Grandfather is Harry Gadbaw and he now lives in Cheyenne, WY. I don't really know a lot about his family because he and my Grandmother, Joann Hurlburt were divorced a very long time ago. He is now married to Minnie Gadbaw. I don't know if anyone knows anything but if you do anything would be helpful. Thanks a lot

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
I have Gadbaws in my family also. They are French. The name would be George Gadbaw who married Mable Coyer. We are told that he was born in Chatagauey, NY. I have their birth and death dates and where they are buried. Also, I have childrens names and can get this info and childrens marriages, etc. from my grandmother. This is all I have. It has been a hard name to research. I have also run into a brick wall in my research. I hope this helps in some way. Is your Grandfather still alive to ask and see if George is related or not? If so please let me know. Thanks.

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
Laurie, I can`t help you with your George Gadbaw, but the only people with that surname in NY state on the 1880 census were living in St.Lawrence Co. There were two families in Ogdensburg & two single men in Brasher ( Frank b. 1855) & Stockholm ( David b. 1853). The two families were headed by Francis Gadbow b. 1837 in Can. & Oliver Gadbaw b. 1839 in NY. If you want the full entries for these familes,let me know. Pat R.

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
That is great my family is also French. I have not been able to get a hold of my grandfather to find out anything else but as soon as I learn more I will let you know to see if it helps. Thank you so much for your help.

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
Hi Pat! Thanks for your reply! Yes; I would love to have the full entries for any and all Gadbaw family members that you have! Maybe this will hold a clue for my Gadbaw ancestors. I never knew that there were any Canadian Gadbaw's. Maybe my Grandmother might be able to remember something her parents told her with this new information. I will be eagerly awaiting your reply. Thanks for your time and help with my Gadbaw ancestors. Laurie

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
My husband has relatives that were Gadbaw's in St Lawrence Co NY. They were Julius Gadbaw/Gadbois born in December 1833, in Ogdenburgh, St Lawrence Co, NY who married Louise Hibien. My line is his son Horace Adelbert Gadbaw who married Elizabeth Young. I know the Young family came from Canada. Their children are D.E.?, Horace, Horatio, Curtis, Albert, Fannie, Hatie, Pandelia, and James. Julius Gadbaw's father was Joseph Vandendaigue-Gadbois (born in 1803 in Racket River, Massena, NY)and his mother was Victoire Electra Hens (born 1806). I do not have a child to this marriage named George but the children listed are: Joseph, Victoire, Ursule, Celeste, Mary, richard, Louis, Julius, Julie, Jean Baptiste, Marquerite, Peter and M.Catherine. They were born between 1824 and 1844. The father and mother of Joseph Vandendaigue-Gadbois are Gabriel Vandendaigue-Gadbois and Josette Mahair/Myers. See if any of these names fit with your ancestors.

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
This is wounderful information! I can only go back as far as George Gadbaws father and mother. They are William and Mary Gadbaw. He was born about 1858 in French, Quebec, Canada we think. Found these names and dates in the 1910 census with George Gadbaw listed below as a child. I haven't searched Canada yet. Need to make sure the names and dates are right first. Mary ? was born about 1866 in French, Canada. I have yet to find them in any church records for burials, etc. I don't know any of his brothers and/or sisters if he had any. This would hold a clue if I can get a varification of death record for him. It would list the parents names. I will keep your email for further reference. Thanks for the help.

Re: Information on the Gadbaw name
I do not know if all Gadbaw's are related but if you look at the March 11th message I sent you can see if you can link up to any of these people. If you think you can I have other names and places that may be of help to you. Good luck.
