Raphael VIAU Jr. and Jean Baptiste VIAU, sons of Raphael VIAU Sr. & Florence LEFEBVRE of St. Remi, Napierville Co. Quebec, both married women surnamed LANGLOIS. Probably related to each other, sisters or cousins? I have found only 1 of the 3 marriage records.
Raphael VIAU Jr. married Eulalie [Nellie] LANGLOIS probably 1850's. The 1861 & 1871 Quebec censuses show 7 or 8 children b in Canada, 1857 to 1871. Raphael died in 1872, before or after their move to Malone, Franklin Co. NY. Nellie didn't remarry & died 50 years later, in Malone 15 Aug 1922.
Raphael's brother, Jean Baptiste VIAU [ca. 1834 - 1869] also moved to Malone, married Julie LANGLOIS, who must have died on or before the end of 1868. On 1 Jan 1869, he married Sophia LANGLOIS, who moved to WI, possibly Marinette Co., after he died May 1869. No known children.
The only LANGLOIS information in the VIAU wills & probate files in Franklin Co. Surrogate's Court records are these wives' maiden names.
Hope somebody has info on 1 or or more of these 3 LANGLOIS women.
Happy to exchange information,
Barb Glassel
