COUSINS
A newsletter pertaining to the descendants of Robert
Pepin and Marie Crete
| In this month's COUSINS
And then Lisa fell off the face of the earth. Well . . . between my Mom's benign tumour and the remove of the effected kidney (she's doing extremely well), and my step-daughter's amputation, life got complicated. Oh, yeah, and I've moved. Not far. I'm just a tad over a mile away from where I was before. This month's issue is going to be a bit peculiar, but then again, I'm still feeling a bit peculiar.
Because this month's issue it going to be a pastiche of my over-flowing inbox, that will be this month's feature. And I'll see what I can put together for next month. I’m working my way through an email back log that has been a couple years in the making. I started with nearly 3900 three weeks ago, and I've gotten it whittled down to 3125 messages.
19 Jun 2004 Message Board Post: I am looking for the family of Earl PEPIN born February 2, 1918 in Portland, Oregon. His father's name was Ralph and his mother Florence. I have pictures that I would like to give the family, Sincerely, Lorie
2 Aug 2004 Hi. My name is Melanie Berry. I have been searching for anyone with ancestry information/trees with Madeline Pepin (on the Revenel List), father Alexander Pepin, I believe. Thank you
8 Aug 2004 Does anyone has any lineage/info on the Pepin imigrants to Charleston in 1600's? Thank you.
14 Aug 2004 I am looking for any information on Suzanne Pepin who married Thomas Perreault May 17 1830 in Yamachiche, Quebec. Thomas died in Centreville, Ontario in 1879. They had 10 children.
17 Aug 2004 I have a pocket watch that has the following engraving: "Presented to Mr. Frs Pepin as a token of sympathy and esteem also as a memento of his recent Providential escape from the hands of his enemies. Quebec, 7th. March, 1857." Perhaps someone could identify Mr. Frs. Pepin and what enemies he escaped from. Its not signed by the presenter. Also, don't understand "the token of sympathy" statement. [Lisa note: I remember being intrigued by this one]
18 Aug 2004 My husband's grandmother's maiden name was Florence Pepin, born in Brandon, VT, in 1903. Her parents were supposedly, according the only 1930 census she filled out with her husband, from New York.
23 Aug 2004 Suzanne Pepin was daughter of Augustin Pepin and Marguerite Grenier.
25 Aug 2004 Recently, a friend sent me several pages from a family genealogy published by the Association des Familles Pepin Inc. in Quebec. Marie Reine died on 9/25/1841 in St. Damase. Her sister Rose died on 11/19/1855 and was buried on 11/20/1855 in Saint Dominique. There were 3 Pepin sisters who married Bousquet brothers. Marie Reine married Amable Bousquet on 10/12/1795 in St. Hyacinthe. Rose married Pierre Bousquet on 10/3/1796. M. Marguerite married Alexis Bousquet, also on 10/3/1796 in St. Hyacinthe. I do have names of other siblings, if I can help further.
3 Sept 2004 Rose Pepin's parents were Antoine Pepin dit Lachance & Marguerite Robichaud. They were married on 2/24/1772 in Notre Dame de Bon Secours (L'Islet). Antoine was born on 11/20/1751 in St. Francois de Sales (Montmagny). Marguerite Robichaud was born abt. 1754 in Port Royal, Acadie. Her parents were Pierre Robichaud & Francoise LeBorgne. Antoine Pepin & Marguerite Robichaud had the following children:
Ancestors of Antoine (11/20/1751) were:
15 Oct 2004 What a well done collection of history. It was of great interest to me as my grandmother Eugenie Prince and her family lived in Manchester NH before coming to Homestead in Saskatchewan, Canada. Eugenie Prince was the daughter of Albert Prince and Clarisse Royer. Albert and Clarisse were married in St. Augustin Church. Eugenie Prince my grandmother was baptised in St. Augustin also. Clarisse Royer's parents were Narcisse Royer and Eugenie Pepin.
16 Oct 2004 I do have some documents i.e. Marriage Certificate for Albert Prince and Eugenie Pepin. I also was able to get a Baptismal Certificate for my Grandmother Eugenie Prince, along with one of her brothers Eugene Prince. But I have no information on Eugenie Pepin's Family, documents, or photos. Anything you might come across would be so much appreciated. I find that doing genealogy there is so much done on the paternal side, so I thought I would endeavour to start with the maternal side. Thanks again.
17 Oct 2004 The marriage and baptisms took place at St. Augustin Catholic Church, 383 Beach, Manchester, N.H. Albert Prince and Claire Royer (this is how her name is written on the marriage certificate) were married January 28, 1884. Marie Claire Eugenie Prince was baptised February 1, 1885, St. Augustin Church, Manchester, N.H. Clair Royer's parents are listed as Narcisse Royer and Eugenie Pepin. Narcisse Royer and Francis Hamel were the witnesses. On Marie Claire Eugenie Prince's baptismal certificate, Narcisse Royer and Clementine Defossee are listed as her sponsors. Clementine would be Narcisse's second wife. I believe that Eugenie Pepin's parents were Alexis Pepin and Marie-Anne Lacourse.
17 Oct 2004 Further research on Social Security Index presents that my father-in-law had 'divorced' in marital status for his death records, therefore Florence probably remarried or possibly took her maiden name back. Any further information would be greatly appreciated.
25 Aug 2004 Although I have no information beyond what you have about Marie, I was hoping maybe you had information on Rose Pepin who must have been a sister to Marie Reine (parents Antoine Pepin and Marguerite Robichaud). Rose married Pierre Bousquet in 1796. Would you know her birth date and place and the same for her death? Any info would be appreciated.
3 Jun 2006 I am a descendant of Robert PÉPIN and Marie CRÊTE
[Diane is looking for places, dates, and if any of her ancestors are Métis or First Nations.]
There are number of things I could ramble about. The downtown-core exits from Interstate 5 in the City of Seattle. I could find a good stout soap box and get really worked up about certain American Insurance Companies. From that same soap box, I could go on for several hours about the way in which medicine is practiced in the United States. Or other things I shall keep quiet about, for now, because I do not wish to jinx their outcome {afterwards…? You'll probably hear alllllll about it). But right now, I'm concentrating on calm and quiet. Calm and quiet are Good Things, which might sound odd from someone currently occupying space very near a very busy street. The view is smashing. And as I make things feel like home, I'm noticing traffic noise less and less. I have been noticing things, though, having lived very near very busy street in the past. Traffic lights on relatively "insignificant" cross streets appear to be present a personal challenge to those who like to drive fast and loud at 2 A.M. Not all of these people are male. Nor are they young. The one thing they have in common is a basic lack in the knowledge of physics and a near total lack of common sense. These same lights also offer personal challenges to pedestrians. Quite often, the lights cease to exist for people running for one of two local bus stops. But my favourite, I think, and the drivers who have yet to figure out that just because law enforcement appears to be occupied with another driver, they aren't going to notice a speeder going past like his/her hair is on fire. Or that there is quite often more than one patrol car in the vicinity. That last is fun to watch. Even if it isn't calm and quiet Calm and quiet. Calm and quiet is being in the mountains in the morning, listening to the forest wake up. Calm and quiet is being on an isolated late summer beach at sunset. Calm and quiet is being at a non-public after-midnight campfire after a weekend of dealing with lots of public. Calm and quiet is looking at the mountains out my dining room window. Watching the clouds come in, have a short visit with the mountains and then watching the clouds wash back out. The sunsets are pretty skookum, too. I'm hoping Santa will bring me a digital camera this year, but with all the places I've been the last year and a half, he might have trouble finding me. *I'm* having trouble finding me, but it nothing, I am stubborn enough to keep looking until I find me. Should any of you see me wandering round, email me, and I'll let you know where to send me. Thanx.
