Dear People:

I am looking for help on my LeBlanc and Trayah family line. I know the information that I am going to present is 100% factual. Beyond that I have no idea. I am looking for the parents of:

Leon Leblanc (son of Louis Severine Boucher) married to a Delima Richard (daughter of Rock Delphine Richard) on November 30, 1892, in Montreal (St-Vincent-de-Paul parish), Quebec

Children
1. Louis Alfred LeBlanc b. 1March 1898 Burlington, VT d. 29 March 1954
2. Leo R. G. LeBlanc b. 2 July 1900 Burlington, VT
3. Rock Napoleon LeBlanc b. 10 June 1903 Burlington, VT
4. Lucien LeBlanc b. 29 Oct 1896 Burlington, VT

1. Louis Alfred (or "W") LeBlanc married Beaulah Gertrude Trayah b. 1901 d. 1928
This is my grandmother's father. She was born Pearl Elizabeth White on 23 July 1922. She married my grandfather in Burlington on 16 March 1940.
2. Leo R.G. LeBlanc who married Irene RICHARD (Andre Norberine MATHIEU) on September 5, 1931, in Bouchette, Ontario
3. Rock Napoleon disappeared in 1950 and his life and final resting place are unknown today. Before my
grandmother passes away I would like to let her know what happened to him.
4. Beaulah Gertrude Trayah b. 1901 d. 1928 - this has stumped me completely. I know her father's name was Frederick Trayah and her mother's name was Ella Wells. In a 1900 census it says that Fred was born in 1876 and that he died in 1940. His wife Ella Wells was born 1878 and died 1962. Both listed their places of birth as Canada. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Shawn L. Bushway

Hello,

My name is Shawn Bushway and I am the grandson of Pearl Elizabeth White whose mother was Beulah Trayah - the daughter of Fred Trayah and Ellen Wells. I saw your post to Norma on 9-3-2012 and hoping you wouldn't mind, I figured I'd take a chance reaching out to you.

I've got to be honest and tell you upfront that I really don't have much to offer. I can send you a picture of Beulah and someone named Hazel Merrill though no one knows who she is. I can send you a picture of Beulah's sister Ruby and of Beulah's daughters Pearl, Thelma and Rita. In addition I can provide you with all of their information - Beulah's daughter Thelma is still alive but she is not in good health and that more than any other reason motivated me to contact you.

In terms of the family history of Beulah's grandparents, I don't have much to offer. I am stuck on Stephen and Josephine as in I have no idea who their parents are. I think Josephine's dad is Charles and her mother's name was Margaret but I'm not sure 100%.

In terms of Ellen Well's parents I'm still confused if her father was Michael or Issac Wells or Stern and while I believe her mother's name was Catherine Rowe - I'm lost on her parents though I think her dad was Peter Rowe - mother Elizabeth Lacroix.

Would you be willing to help me fill in the gaps and maybe share some pictures? I'd love to show aunt Thelma what her great grandparents looked like. You also mentioned Joseph and Aggie Trayah, Margaret Trayah LaRocque and John LaRocque and while I don't know where these people fit into the family tree they are people I've heard of especially Aggie Trayah and John LaRocque. Would you be inclined to share pictures of these people as well?

I am sorry that I don't have a lot to offer in return. Though I started this project in 1996 my family was not much interested in sharing. This changed shortly before my grandparent's passed but by that time I was 2100 miles away and it was hard to connect. I've tried to contact as many of the older people as I can but I always seem to be a year or two behind - in other words by the time I discover them and set about contacting them it's too late as they just passed away. I've missed people by as close as two weeks. I'll offer what I can but if it's not enough I completely understand.

Take care,
Shawn
