Landreville family of Saint Paul of Quebec
The Landreville family of Saint Paul, Joliette, Quebec is shown here in about 1907. My father’s uncle Albini Landreville is at back right and his parents are in front middle. They had 17 children of which some are seen here. Photo thanks to a couple of my second cousins from the Landreville clan. Albini would immigrate to New Bedford and marry my father’s aunt – Dorothy Comeau – in 1913.
Identification is as follows: Damase at left back hiding off the photo – Elida at top left near him at edge- Henri at back middle – Elmeria at right back – our Albini – Antoine at left center row – father and mother – Rose-de-Lima at left front – Marie-Ange at front right – Omar at right front
The parents are Joseph Camille Gauthier dit Landreville and Rose-de-Lima Richard. They were married in 1887 in Saint-Liguori, Montcalm, Quebec. Their eldest son was Albini but of the other 16 children we know only names and some birth dates and locations. Albini was born in Saint Paul, Joliette, Quebec, Canada on 1 May 1889. I have recently found the family on the 1911 census in Canada.
Does anyone know more about the children born to this family? How many of them came to the USA and what happened to the rest? In the picture, I do not really know which of the older girls is which. Of the two older girls one is a half sister of the rest of the siblings.
