Nicole Philippeau was a filled du roi. See below.
Filles du Roi --"King's Daughters" http://www.delmars.com/family/filleroi.htm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Between 1663 and 1673, 768 Filles du Roi or "King's Daughters" emigrated to New France under the sponsorship of the French government as part of the overall strategy of strengthening the colony until it could stand on its own without economic and military dependence on France.
In 1663, about 2,500 colonists lived in New France, for the most part on the north shore of the Saint Lawrence between Québec and Montréal. With a constant threat from the Iroquois and the more populous English colonies on the Atlantic coast, the need to populate New France became a growing concern for Louis XIV and his colonial advisors. Through the early 1670s however, men of marriageable age far outnumbered the women of marriageable age. Unable to find a wife in Québec, a great number of male immigrants returned to France after their three-year term of service expired.
Between 1634 and August 1663, while the colony was governed by the Compagnie des Cent Associés, about 262 filles à marier (marriageable girls) were recruited by individuals or by private religious groups who paid their travel expenses and provided for their lodging until they were married. But individual recruiters and private organizations had little success in enticing single women to emigrate to New France, and fewer than ten filles arrived in the colony in most years. In 1663, the King took over direct control of the government of New France and initiated an organized system of recruiting and transporting marriageable women to the colony. On September 22, 1663, thirty-six girls --the first group of Filles du Roi-- arrived in Québec.
The recruiting of Filles du Roi took place largely in Paris, Rouen and other northern cities by merchants and ship outfitters. A screening process required each girl to present her birth certificate and a recommendation from her parish priest or local magistrate stating that she was free to marry. It was necessary that the girls be of appropriate age for giving birth and that "they be healthy and strong for country work, or that they at least have some aptitude for household chores."
The cost of sending each Fille du Roi to New France was 100 livres: 10 for the recruitment, 30 for clothing and 60 for the crossing itself --the total being roughly equivalent to $1,425 in the year 2000. In addition to having the costs of her passage paid by the state, each girl received an assortment of practical items in a case: a coiffe, bonnet, taffeta handkerchief, pair of stockings, pair of gloves, ribbon, four shoelaces, white thread, 100 needles, 1,000 pins, a comb, pair of scissors, two knives and two livres in cash. Upon arrival, the Filles received suitable clothing and some provisions.
All of the Filles du Roi first landed at Québec City where 560 remained, with 133 being sent to Montréal and 75 to Trois-Rivières. While awaiting marriage, they were lodged in houses in dormitory-style settings under the care of a female chaperone or directress where they were taught practical skills and chores to help them in their future household duties. Suitors would come to the house to make their selection, and the directress would oversee the encounters.
When selecting a Fille du Roi, the suitor looked beyond outward appearances and considered the practical attributes of a bride that would be adapted or disposed to the rigors of the colony. The preference seems to have been for peasant girls because they were healthy and industrious, as opposed to city girls who were often considered lightheaded and lazy. Marie de l'Incarnation, mother superior of the Ursuline convent at Québec City and one of Québec's early female founders, requested in 1668: "From now on, we only want to ask for village girls who are as fit for work as men, experience having shown that those who are not raised [in the country] are not fit for this country."
Every Fille du Roi had the right to refuse any marriage offer that was presented. In order to make an informed decision to accept a would-be husband, the girls asked questions about the suitor's home, finances, land and profession. Having a home of one's own was one of the most important considerations for a Fille du Roi. According to Marie de l'Incarnation, "The smartest [among the suitors] began making an habitation one year before getting married, because those with an habitation find a wife easier. It's the first thing that the girls ask about, wisely at that, since those who are not established suffer greatly before being comfortable." After agreeing to marry, the couple appeared in front of a notary to have a marriage contract drawn up, and the wedding ceremony generally followed within 30 days. For the Filles du Roi, the average interval between arrival and marriage was four to five months, although the average interval for girls aged 13 to 16 was slightly longer than fifteen months.
In addition to any dowry of goods that the bride may have brought with her from France, each couple was given an assortment of livestock and goods to start them off in married life: a pair of chickens and pigs, an ox, a cow and two barrels of salted meat. The King's Gift of 50 livres is believed to have been a customary addition to the dowry, but only 250 out of 606 known marriage contracts make reference to an additional dowry given by the King. Once married, there was an incentive to have large families. A yearly pension of 300 livres was granted to families with ten children, rising to 400 livres for 12 children and more for larger families.
In November 1671, Intendant Jean Talon in a letter to the King wrote that the birth of six to seven hundred babies that year confirmed the fertility of the country. He predicted that "without further help from the girls from France, this country will produce more than one hundred marriages in the first few years and many more after that, as time goes by." Talon advised that it would not be necessary to send more girls the next year in order for the colonists to more easily give their daughters in marriage.
In 1672 France and England declared war on the Dutch republic, requiring a great deal of the attention and finances of the French government. The French authorities decided it was too costly to continue sending Filles du Roi and unnecessary since the colony's own population could provide a sufficient number of marriageable women. In September 1673 the last shipment of Filles du Roi arrived from France, and the program ended. The population of New France had risen to 6,700 people, an increase of 168% in the eleven years since the program had begun. Although the Filles du Roi represent only 8% of the total immigrants to Canada under the French régime, they account for nearly half of the women who immigrated to Canada in the colony's 150-year history.

A biography of Rene LeDuc appeared in the francophone LeDuc Journal, vol. 7, #4 (Autumn, 1995), published by the Association des Familles Leduc, Inc. written by Jocelyne Leduc Gauvin. It may be found at the following website: www.geocities.com/Heartland/5063/rene_e.htm?200627.
The following is a summary of this article which also includes informaion on Rene's son Guillaume Le Duc from whom we descend:
There were four immigrants to New France with the name LeDuc. Rene Duc's name had the misfortune to be "daughtered out" by the third generation of this family leaving most of his Canadian and American descendants unaware his existence. As noted above he married the fille du Roi Anne Gentreau/Gendreau. (See her entry for a summary of her life and a dsecription of the filles du roi.)
Land records for Lauzon and Quebec City indicate that they sold and exchanged many grants of land on the shore of the St. Lawrence River, as well as on the Quai of the Cul-de-Sac in the lower town of Quebec City. These llands became part of their children's inheritance.
Besides land speculation, Rene LeDuc also was a voyageur, a man who contract to work with a crew of other men in a canoe to transport goods up and down the St. Lawrence River. In 1702 Rene, age 61, contracted to be a voyageur with for the Compagnie de la Colonie.
His son and our direct ancestor, Guillaume Le Duc, like his father took up the trade of voyageur. Contracts appear to have bveen drawn up for his services as early as 1690, when Guillaume woudl have been 21 years old, with a trip to Acadie. Succeeding contracts indicate this occupation of voyageur was a side line for Guillaume LeDuc as these contracts refer to hims as being a farmer, merchant, trader, and a prospering citizen of Quebec (bourgeois). He had a two storey stone house built on Cul de Sac Street at the Place Royale in Quebec in 1725. This house still exists in the place described.
Guillaume and his wife Elizabeth Drouin have 16 children, but infant mortaility was high in this household, as 12 died before the age of two years. Their child, Marie-Catherine LeDuc, according to the author of this article, was the only one to have a family after marrying Pierre Marcoux, son of Jean Baptiste Marcoux. However this is an error as another daughter from whom we are descended, Elizabeth LeDuc married Henri Crete thorugh whose daughter Marie-Louise Crete we descend. Marie Louise died somewhere in the Detroit area, either in the city or in Monroe County, Michigan. | LeDuc, Guillaume (I10347)

Rene LeDuc's wife, Anne Gentreau/Gendreau, was a fille du roi. See Peter J. Gagne' "King's Daughters ands Founding Mothers: The Fille du Ry, 1663-1673", p. 266. The following is a summary of that entry:
Anne Gendreau or Gentreau was born about 1642 in the parish of St. Nicolas in Les Sables d'Olonne, diocese of Lucon, Poitou, France. she was the daughter of Nicolas Gendreau and Perrine Buette. She came to Canada in 1663, age 21. A year later she reieved the Sacrament of Confirmation in the city of Quebec.
She married Rene LeDuc on 28 October 1664 in Quebec City. Neither were able to sign their names to the marriage contract. Rene was born about 1641 in Breze, arrondissement of Saumur, diocese of Angers, Anjou, France. He was the son of Vincent LeDuc and Urbaine Renoult/Renoux. Rene Le Duc and Anne Gendreau settled in Quebec City from 1664-1673, then at Lauzon from 1674 to at least the 1681 census after which they died. Rene's death is not recorded, but he died between 18 November 1704 and 22 August 1713 and Marie Gendreau, his wife, died September 11, 1721 at the Hotel-Dieu of Quebec City. They had ten children from 1665-1680, a space of 15 years.
Two of their daughters, Madeleine and Francoise, became nuns at the Hotel Dieu in Quebec where their mother died. Not withstanding that she had raised two daughters who became nuns, Anne Gendreau was brought before the Provost of Quebec to answer charges that she had slandered Jeanne Redie', wife of Jean Dumets. Anne was ordered to make a "reparation of honor", that is, a public apology to the grievant and to refrain from insulting her in the future.

Thank you for your John/Jean Baptiste Trombley materials. His first wife was Vernique-Angelique LeRoux /Larue. They had two children together, both born in St. Regis, NY: (1) Francis Xavier Trombley and (2) John (Pete) Trombley who died unmarried at age 27. Francis Xavier Trombley did marry and had children, but according to a great uncle of mine, Charlie Jarvis, he took his family to the Dakotas (North or South) and nothing further is known. This information about migration to the Dakotas is not recorded anywhere and is strictly oral history from Uncle Charlie.
As for me, my mother is 100% French Canadian, making all of her ancestors are available to me both in the US and Canada.
.
Jean/John Baptiste Trombley was one of my great-great-great-grandfathers who lived in Monroe County, MI, where all the Frenchies settled in the 19th Century.
I have his complete ancestors back to the 1600's in France as well as many, many of his descendants on my site as well as pictures of J.B, his wife and some of his children. Please feel free to visit Tombeau.net. Also involved is a Laura ? Trombley whose husband is a Trombley. I think you have had contact with her.
Well feel free to take whatever you want from the site. The branch of the Trombley Family you sent me is part of the larger tree at my site. Your other larger tree appears to be more Germanic than French or American. But the Stark /Sterk family
did marry into my mother's family, The LaVoys. So I thank you for whatever I shall find there in detail later.

That is quite a piece of work you have sent me. I did pick up some LaVoys who form the bulk of my searches. Mostly interelateted to the Stark/Sterk family. However, I was not able to find any Trombleys. I am primarily interested in the descendants of Jean Baptiste Trombley and his wife, Mary Boemier who settled in Newport,Monroe County, MI. Can you steer me to this work in your magnum opus? Also do you have descendants of his first marriage?
Thanks you for your kind presentation of your extensive work in genealogy,

The Ancestry of Elizabeth Fitzsimmons Tambo
Elizabeth Fitzsimmons, the wife of William Tambo, was born May 5, l876, although her birth certificate in England to confirm this has not been sent for. An l88l Census of Durham County, England, indicates that her birth place was Gilosjute Moor, County Durham, England. She is listed as eight years old at the time which conflicts with l876 as her birth year.
Her parents were Peter Fitzsimmons and Ann Joyce who were born in County Mayo, Ireland, "across the River Moy from County Sligo" says the oral history handed down to my father, by his maternal grandfather, the above named Peter.
Mary Judith Voinski Juliano, a great granddaughter of Peter, has written a family history of some branches of the Fitzsimmons Family, entitled "Lackawanna County Heritage: A Family History" privately published in l986 (Judith Juliano, Briarwood, l58ll West l36th St., Olahte, Kansas 66062 as of l988)
The earliest known Fitzsimmons' ancestors were William Fitzsimmons and Mary Grimes, reported on Peter Fitzsimmons death certificate as his parents. They were born in Ireland in the early l800's. Their son, Peter Fitzsimmons, would have been born in l84l according to the l88l County Durham Census age he is given, (Durham County, England, l88l Census, Village of Boyne, dwelling #l52, 23 School Street) or in August of l839, according to the l900 U.S. Federal Census, Lackawanna County, Olyphant, Pennsylvania, dwelling #l69. Peter's wife, Anna Joyce, was born in l843, according to her age in the l88l English Census, or in July of l844 according to her age in the l900 U.S. Federal Census. From the naming of Peter and Anna's children, they appeared to have adopted the Nineteenth Century custom of naming the first two children of each gender after the children's grandparents. On this basis Anna's parents would have been Patrick and Margaret Joyce.
According to the Juliano book, Peter and Anna married in County Mayo, Ireland, in l860 (U.S. l900 Federal Census states they were married for 40 years). They left Ireland for County Durham England because of the poor economic conditions resulting from the Irish Potato Famine. They did so shortly after their marriage as their first son William, according to the l88l English Census was born in Framwellgate, County Durham, England.
Juliano states in her book that Peter and Anna Fitzsimmons first settled in the village of Houghton-Le-Spring, on the east coast of England, near Newcastle, the famous mining town, subject of the famous proverb about useless activity "like carrying coals to New Castle". Houghton-Le-Spring is in County Durham near the Scottish Border.
Peter became a coal miner in England and the birth towns of their children recorded in the l88l English Census indicate that the family lived a nomadic existance: William was born in Framwellgate, Patrick in Pity Me, Margaret in New Durham, Elizabeth in Gilosjute Moor, Annie and Peter in Boyne, and Anthony in Kimblesworth. Peter and Anna had ten children in all, nine of whom reached adulthood and settled in and around Olyphant, Pennsylvania. Their names were William, Mary, Patrick, Margaret, Elizabeth (the writer's grandmother), Ann, Peter, Jr., Anthony, and Kathryn Fitzsimmons. The tenth child, a son believed to be named Thomas died in his youth, perhaps in England. The l900 U.S. Census confirms that Peter and Anna Fitzsimmons had ten children.
Family tradition has it that Peter came first with his oldest son William, again took up work coal mining, and gradually bought the passage of his wife and other children to the States.
Naturalization papers for Peter Fitzsimmons indicate that he came to the U.S. by way of the port of New York on l9 March l887. it must be admitted, however, that Peter's signature is an "X" on these papers and that his birth year is said to be l852, which conflicts drastically with the Census returns of England and the U.S. There is no other identifying data on these papers to determine whether this is our ancestor, or another Peter Fitzsimmons. The l900 Census does state he was naturalized, but that he came to the States in l885. More research will be necessary to confirm whether the naturalization papers in the hands of the writer are indeed ancestor Peter's. Clerks at the Lackawanna Court House were unable to find papers for any other Peter Fitzsimmons, however.
Anna Joyce Fitzsimmons died 4 January l90l, a date found on her obelisk tombstone in St. Patrick's Cemetery in Blakely, PA. A death certificate has not been found because Pennsylvania did not have a compulsory vital statistics law until l906. The cause of her death was a heart attack, according to her grandaughter, Dora Roberts Leek. Anna died at the age of 56-57. The early deaths of so many of her descendants of heart attacks and strokes suggest that it is she who brought into the family the lethal gene that causes cholesterol to accumulate in the arteries of those who inherit it.
While a photograph of Anna Joyce Fitzsimmons has not been found, her granddaughter, Dora Roberts Leek states that Anna and her daughter, Ann Fitzsimmons Roberts (Dora's mother) were the "image" of each other. A picture of Ann Fitzsimmons Roberts' has been included with this history.
Peter Fitzsimmons lived on until l August l922, just days short of his 83rd birthday. The cause of death on his death certificate was noted as myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle. A contributing factor to the cause of death was atheroschlerosis, or hardening of the arteries. He is buried next to his wife of 4l years in St. Patrick's Cemetery, Blakely, PA.
Turning now from Elizabeth's family to Elizabeth herself, we have already reported her in the l88l English Census, in the village of Boyne, County Durham.
The l890 Federal Census was destroyed and so no entry can be found for her there. Her next appearance is in the l900 Census, where she has a double entry. The first entry is in Jessup, PA., dwelling #70, with her husband William, boarding with Margaret Cummings, and elderly widow of 73. This entry is so garbled about essential facts about the family that it may be assumed that neither William or Liza were there that day and the information given out was that of Mrs. Cummings' recollections of them. (l900 Federal Census, Lackawanna County, Jessup, p. 256B)
Her second entry in the l900 Census apparently reflects a visit with her parents on the date of the Census, l2 June l900 (Olyphant, dwelling #l69, p. ll B). The full entry is as follows, reflecting the presence in the home on that date of Elizabeth's parents, three of her brothers and sisters, herself and her young daughter, Frances:
Peter Fitzsimmons, white male, 60 years old, birthdate August l839; married 40 years; born in Ireland; mother born in Ireland; father born in Ireland; not able to read and write; employed as a coal miner; not employed for the last three months; immigrant to the U.S. in l885; naturalized citizen; speaks English; owns home; residing in U.S. for l5 years.
(This entry suggests that Peter could not read or write. As was noted earlier, the naturalization papers of Peter Fitzsimmons bear only the "X" of the man to whom they belong.)
Ann Fitzsimmons, wife, white female, age 55 years; birth date July l864 (an error in view of her stated age, should read l844); had ten children, only nine living; married 40 years, born in Ireland; mother born in Ireland; father born in Ireland; immigrated to U.S. in l885, residing in U.S. l5 years; not able to read or write; speaks English.
Peter Fitzsimmons, son, white male; 2l years old; born May, l879, in England; laborer in coal mines; not employed for last three months; single; reads, writes, and speaks English; came to U.S. in l885; residing in U.S. l5 years; both parents born in Ireland.
Anthony Fitzsimmons, son, white male, l8 years old; born October l88l in England; laborer in coal mines; not employed for the last three months; single; reads, writes and speaks English; came to U.S. in l885; resided in U.S. for l5 years; parents born in Ireland.
Katie Fitzsimmons, daughter, white female, l7 years old, born March, l883, in England; single; reads, writes, and speaks English; came to U.S. in l885; resided in U.S. l5 years; parents born in Ireland.
Tambo, Elizabeth, daughter, white female, 24 years old; born May, l886, in England (must be error for l876, considering her age); married one year; one child who is still living; came to the U.S. in l885; resided in U.S. for l5 years; reads, writes and speaks English; parents born in Ireland.
Tambo, Frances, white female, age 2/l2, born March, l900, in Pennsylvania; father born in Pennsylvania; mother born in england; single, niece to head of the household (obvious error for granddaughter)
In the l9l0 Federal Census (Olyphant, Dwelling # 256, p. l7 B), the year l889, rather than l885 is listed as her year of entry to the U.S. In the l920 Federal Census (Olyphant, dwelling l05, p. 8 B), the year of entry is l882 (an obvious error), but her date of naturalization is stated as l892. The Peter Fitzsimmons papers for naturalization were taken out 7 October l892, when she would still have been a minor child and would have obtained naturalization at the same time as her father.)
In the l9l0 Census, she reports that she had had 6 children, 4 of which were still living. This information was not requested in the l920 Census.
Physically, Elizabeth was a slightly built woman, on the frail side in
old age, as the pictures of her that survive attest. Obviously her size, however, did not stop her from throwing hellish fits of Irish temper as family memory and anecdotes related earlier indicate.
She also had a skeleton in her closet who was raised with the William Tambo family: her illegitimate son, Eddy Mackrell. It is certainly a fine tribute to William that he chose to raise another man's son in his home as his own. Eddy appears in family pictures as another son in the family.
Eddy was the son of Stephen Mackrell, a brother of Jenny Mackrell, who married Elizabeth's brother, Patrick. The Mackrells and Fitzsimmons Family are said to have known each other in England before they came to the U.S. Eddy was born 6 October l896 in Olyphant and would have been about three years old at the time of his mother's marriage to William Tambo. Eddy Mackerel (as it is also spelled) came to Michigan in l922 and eventually settled in River Rouge, Michigan. But his story would take us too far a field and is recorded elsewhere in this writer's records.
Elizabeth Fitzsimmons Tambo died in her daughter Pearl Tambeau's home at l524 Monsey St., Scranton, PA., on l3 April l932 at 7 pm, a few weeks shy of her 56th birthday. She was apparently unaware of the seriousness of her condition, as she awoke from what was thought to be a coma when she heard her daughters making funeral arrangements. She died of stomach cancer, as did her husband. As none of the children of this couple died of stomach cancer, having moved in their young adulthood to Michigan, perhaps these two deaths could be attributed to coal dust that must have permeated the air and been ingested during the course of swallowing.
Her son, Jack, also reports that some time before her final illness she had suffered a small stroke which effected her right side.
Elizabeth is buried in St. Patrick's Cemetery, Blakely, PA., next to her husband, in an unmarked grave in Section P, plot 39, below the Flood Family monument and to the right of the Gibbons' grave markers. St. Patrick's Church records indicate that on 28 December l929, Mrs William Tambo, of Dickson city, paid $50.00 for four grave sites. Two sites remain vacant to this day.

The Ancestry of Frances Alwilda Lake
Before recounting the descendants of Samuel R. Tombow and his wife, Frances Alwilda Lake, what is known about our ancestress and her origins at this writing is here recorded.
The earliest Census of Frances's family so far researched is the l850 Federal Census of Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. Susquehanna County is Pennsylvania's most northeastern county, bounded by New York on two sides.
The following entry is found on page 97 of the l850 Census, dwelling l507, Lenox Township. The entry was made 30 October l850.
William Lake, age 45, farmer, born in New York State, real estate value: $300. Catherine age 28, born in New York State Mary age l0, born in Pennsylvania Frances age 8, born in Pennsylvania John age 7 born in Pennsylvania Angeline, age 5, born in Pennsylvania Lucius (m) age l born in Pennsylvania Inez (f) age l born in Pennsylvania
The following is an entry taken from the l860 Federal Census for Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, city of Carbondale, dwelling #850. The entry was made on 4 July l860.
William Lake, age 50 years, sawyer, born in New York, estate value: $50 Catherine Lake, age 34 years, born in New York
Alwilda Lake, age l7, dressmaker, born in Pennsylvania
John W. Lake, age l6, day laborer, born in Pennsylvania
Angeline Lake, age l4, born in Pennsylvania
Inez Lake, age l2, born in Pennsylvania
Lucius Lake, age l2, born in Pennsylvania
Patience Lake, age l0, born in Pennsylvania
Arthur Lake, age 7, born in Pennsylvania
Emaretta Lake, age 6, born in Pennsylvania
Ralph Lake, age 3, born in Pennsylvania
Charles Lake, age ll/l2, born in Pennsylvania
A personal search of the l870 Census for Carbondale did not reveal traces of the William Lake Family.
A computerized search of the Luzerne County Federal Census for l870 did not reveal the family of Nicolas Johns whom Frances Alwilda Lake married after the death of Samuel. (Marjorie Wylam Bleidner, Computerized l870 Luzerne Co, PA. Federal Census, PO Box 2363, Marathon Shores, FL 33052, (305) 289-0734. Research done l August l989)
What is now known about Frances Alwilda Lake from oral history and the public record can be reconstructed as follows. Frances was born in Pennsylvania, probably Susquehanna County, in about l843. Her parents were William and Catherine Lake who were born in New York State, and apparently came to Pennsylvania shortly after their marriage as all children are born in Pennsylvania. Their marriage probably occurred around l838-39 in the State of New York.
Many of Frances' siblings remained in the Scranton area as this writer's aunts have stated that the Lake uncles helped their family to get jobs. Further research on the Lake Family and its origins will require work on the siblings. Perhaps John W. Lake, Frances' brother, entered the Civil War. If such is the case, his pension papers may reveal something about the family. Vital records for Lackawanna County, and its parent County, Luzerne, need to be searched for further clues, as well as city directories. Shortly, all Federal Censuses, including the l920 Federal Census, will be open for public scrutiny.
Greene County, New York, has a great number of Lake Families in earlier Federal Censuses. Many other family names from this County also show up as family names in the l850 Federal Census of Susqehanna County, PA. Since migration movements in the U.S. often involved neighbors and relatives moving to the same locations, Greene County, NY, may be the birth place and place of marriage of Frances' parents.
Frances Alwilda Lake was a seamstress, or dressmaker, according to the l860 Census. Her granddaughter, Pearl Tambeau, states that "when she walked down the street, she took both sides of it with her", the impression being given that Frances had a proud and grand air about her.
Frances' pension application, as the widow of Samuel Tombow, indicates that she married Nicolas Johns 25 December l869, but it does not name the location. By the l870 Federal Census the family had apparently moved to Carbon County where they are found in the l880 Federal Census.
The 1880 Federal Census. Vol. 18, E.D. 109, Sheet 13, line 26, indicates that Nicolas John, a white male, age 44 years, was living in Yorktown, Carbon Co., PA, with his wife Frances A. John, age 37, son William (Tombow), age 15, daughter Ann (John), age 8 years, and daughter Elizabeth (John), age 6 years, all of whom were born in Pennsylvania.
Nicolas Johns, a coal mining engineer, must have died by l882, as Frances files an application for Samuel's pension. This suggests that she was once again widowed, and having fallen on hard times sought the pension money as a source of income.
On 24 October l882 she gives her address as Audenreid, Carbon County, PA. In this application she repeatedly spells the family name as "Tambo", not "Tombo", as Samuel did in his signature.
Her signature appears on this application which was subsequently denied on 25 July l883.
Seven years later, on 26 March l890, she refiles her application for pension in the Court of Quarter Sessions, Lackawanna County, giving her residence as Olyphant, Pennsylvania. The family name is also spelled "Tambo" on these documents.
Her petition was again rejected on two grounds: the records show that the fatal disease existed prior to enlistment and, secondly, she had remarried within a year of Samuel's death.
The date of Frances Alwilda Lake's death and her place of burial are unknown. As her son, William, married in l899 and resided in Olyphant it may be conjectured that she lived near by at the time of her death. | Lake, Frances Alwilda (I03719)

The cause of death for Guy LaVoy was diphtheria. He died at the age of 11 years (Monroe County Death Records, vol. 3, 1889-1897), This would place his birth year in 1880 the year of Henry Walter's birth. This would make him either a twin of Henry or Guy was Henry's nickname. Further review of the St. Joseph Baptismal Records may shed further light on this issue. | LaVoy, Guy (I00683)

The date and birthplace of Jean Baptiste Dusseau IV was supplied by a family ledger kept by his grandson John Joseph Duso of Kawkawlin, MI and now a copy of which is owned by Mrs. Arbertha Gautheir Baker of Saginaw, MI. Tharcile Laforest was known as Tossie La Foray in the Kawkawlin family branch of the Dusseaux. This ledger indicates she was born in August 1797, so that she was 6 years older than her husband. She may have been born in St. Sulpice, Assumption Parish, as that is where she was married. John's death date of March 1, 1892 in this ledger is in error. The correct date is December 9, 1893, two months after trying to put out a fire that engulfed his granddaughter, Ada Dusseau. As he was 90 years old, the fire no doubt hastened his demise. (See Ada's entry for more.)
The above ledger indicates that John and Thracile had five children: William John, Frank, Joseph, Alice and Justine. For some reason, their daughter Thracile LaForest (Jr.), who married Jean Baptiste Anteau of Berlin Township is not mentioned in this list, although her death is acknowledged in this register. (See her entry for more.)
No records available other than this one to sustain the existence of these children other than William John Dusseau, later of Kawkawlin, MI, his older brother, Joseph, of Toledo, OH, and their \Sister, Tharcile Dusseau Anteau of Newport, MI. It is likely therefore that Frank and Justine died as infants or young children either in the U.S. or in Canada. However, as of 2006, Minden Sexton, a descednat of another brnach of Dusseas (Jean Francois Dussault, through his son Louis Joseph Dussalt, has discovered evidence in Censuses and marriage records that Justine Dussalt survived into adulthood, married and had children in Monroe County, MI. So only Frank Dussault is without
written records at this writing to sustain his existence as of 2006.
While Tharcile is not mentioned as a child, Alice is and it interesting to note that her brother William's daughter was named Tharcille Alice Duso. Perhaps the above Alice is Tharcille under her middle name, as the ledger indicates only five children were born to John Baptiste Dusseau IV and his wife Tharcile LaForest.
According to Aunt Lena Dusseau, daughter grandaughter of John Baptiste and Tharcile, and Mrs. Arbertha Gauthier Baker, a descendant of the Dusseau Family through William John Dusseau, the family came by covered wagon to Erie, Michigan. The above ledger indicates that William John Dusseau, son of John Baptoste Dusseau and Tharcile LaForest, was born in Whitehall, VT, now Whitehall, NY. Research of the records there will be necessary to determine if they bought a farm and other details such as how long they were there before coming to Michigan. The Family came to the U.S. some time beween 1837 when their son Joseph Dusseau was born, since he is a naturalized citizen (See naturalization papers from Toledo, OH, in family papers.) and 1842, when their son William John was born in Whitehall, VT.
Lena Dusseau, a granddaughter of John said he came from Canada to Erie, MI, in a covered wagon with a partner. He made and sold washboards of wood. She described her grandfather as big and huskey.
Joseph's father (John Baptiste Dusseau IV) came to live with them In Toledo, OH, and died there at the age of 90. He had been living with his other son William in Kawkawlin, MI, in the Bay City area, according to that family's tradition. As he died two months after trying to save his granddaughter, it is likely this contributed to his death.
According to his great-great granddaughter, Arbertha Gauthier Baker, John's body was brought back to for burial with his wife. Apparently they were first buried in old St. Joseph's on State St. across from Visitation Church in Bay City and then their remains with others were removed to the new Calvary Cemetery, Kawkawlin, MI, in 1953. What stones they could gather were brought to the new cemetery and the remains were put in a special place. The old cemetery St. Joseph's Cemetery went from Smith St. to Elm St. and had a fence around it. It is now a paring lot (2003).
Arbertha supplied dates for this family and Joseph's parents, Louis Dussault and Louise Amiot on page 102 in her ledger. However, there are issues with these dates with respect to Louise. She is stated as born 20 May 1886. If this is meant to be 1786, she was married in 1794 at the age of 8. Perhaps the correct year is 1776, the year Louis DuSault/Dussault was born.

The dates given for Isadore Knaggs birth and death are taken from Robert B. Ross "The Knaggs Family of Ohio and Michigan". The published Death Records of Monroe County, MI, Vol. 2, state he died at the age of 56 years, 3 months, and 28 days of gangrene. His occupation was that of a farmer. The death records support Isadore's death date as given by Ross.

The Descendants of Lydia Ann Tombow and Aaron Fluck, Sr.
II-5: Lydia Ann Tombow was the fifth of the nine children of William Tombow, Jr., and Elizabeth Rohrer of Lampeter Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. She was born on 26 August 1846, according to her entry in the Portrait and Biographical Album of Whiteside County, IL (p. 368). She most likely was named after her paternal aunt Lydia Tombow Groff. Her paternal grandparents were William Tombos, an immigrant from the Netherlands, and Mary Herzkey, born in America of German descent.
There are three records that indicate that Lydia Tombow was the daughter of William Tombow, Jr.: the Lancaster County 1852-55 register of Births, Marriages and Deaths where she is recorded in her youngr brother William's birth entryin 1852. She is also mentioned as William Tombow, Jr.'s heir in the Letter of Administration filed in 1865 in the Whiteside County, IL, Circuit Court. Thirdly, she is mentioned as his heir in papers filed in 1904 by David Kauffman in Whiteside County Circuit Court against the heirs of William Tombow, Jr., in order to obtain clear title to William's property 39 years after his death.
Although Lydia was in Lancaster County, PA, in 1850, age 4, her entry has not yet been found in the 1850 Federal Census for Lancaster County. Despite her tender age her father had already found another family to raise her. The Federal Censuses in Pennsylvania and Illinois confirm over and over again that William farmed his children out to relatives and co-religionists in the Mennonite Faith.
Some clue to her whereabouts is given in the Portrait and Biographical Album of Whiteside County, Illinois (p.368): "Her mother died when she was 7 years old, and she was placed in the charge of Mr. Landis, now of Sterling Township, by whom she was brought up and with whose family she came to Whiteside County. Her father in the meantime had married again and moved to Sterling a year previous to her coming to this Coun- ty. She continued a member of Mr. Landis family until her marriage."
Oral tradition that has survived in Lydia's descendants indicates that Mr. Landis was not a kindly man. At her death in 1924 scars from beatings she had as a child were still visible on her back.
Another oral tradition that has survived in her descendants is that when she came from Pennsylvania, she came by train all the way to Dixon, IL, where she disembarked and went by horse-drawn conveyance the rest of the way to Sterling. The blue-green prairie grass still dominated the landscape upon her arrival and was ten feet tall.
Our first glimpse of Lydia is in the 1860 Federal Census of Whiteside County, IL. In the spring of 1853, after the death of his first wife, Lydia's mother, William Tombow, Jr., sold his property in Lampeter Township, PA., and moved to Whiteside County, after marrying his second wife, Fanny. The year of his arrival in Whiteside County appears to be 1856. In her biographical sketch above she notes she came a year after her father did and her obituary indicates she came in 1857. She also notes in her brother Jacob's pension application that her father came in 1856.
By that time a wooden Bridge crossed the Rock River at Dixon. Prior to 1855, however, railroad passengers had to cross by ferry to continue their journey.
The 1860 Federal Census confirms her statements that she lived with a Landis family, although the first name of the head of the household is not clear. Lydia's last name is contorted to "Tornbow" in the wretched writing of the census taker of that year. (Entry 3022/2909, Sterling Township, p. 309, Whiteside County, IL, 1860 Federal Census):
Morris (?) Landis, age 40, male, farmer, born in PA.
Mary A., age 39, female, born PA.
Lydia A. Tornbow, age 14, female, born in PA.
Julia (?) everheart, age 1, female, born In IL.
Amos McCordy, age 11, male, farm laborer, born INPA
John Vickerson, age 21, farm laborer, born in PA
Hershe (?) Landis, age 40, female domestic, $200 real estate, $150, personal property, born In PA
Benj (?) Landis, age 9, born in PA
Hattie A. Horn, age 14, female, born in PA
Jacob Horn, age 7, male, born in PA.
Lydia Ann Tombow married 15 November 1864 in Sterling, IL, to Aaron Fluck, Sr., born 22 September 1833 in Bucks County, PA, the son of John Fluck and Elizabeth Leight. (Biographical Sketch noted above)
Aaron Fluck, Sr., according the above biographical sketch came to Whiteside County, IL, in 1857 and became a prosperous farmer in Hume Township. His home is noted to be the largest and most valuable in the township and a picture of this home is part of this family history.
The reader is referred to the Chapman Brother's Portrait and Biographical Album of Whiteside County, Illinois (1883), pp.367-8, for further details on the ancestry and life of Aaron Fluck, Sr., contained in the appendix of this section.
Aaron Fluck, Sr., was involved in real estate speculation and the reader is also referred to the Whiteside County Deed Books to trace his many real estate purchases during the late 1800's.
His first recorded purchase was from Benjamin Rohrer for $750 on 23 December 1857 (Deeds, Book 2, pg. 111). Subsequent purchases of land were made 8 April 1859 for $206 (Deeds, Book 13, pg. 248); 10 October 1859 for $250 (Bk. 15, p. 35); 27 May 1864, no sum of money mentioned (Bk. 27, p. 80); 10 November 1864 for $400 (Bk 33, p. 37); 2 December 1868 for $250 (20-21-7); and 7 October 1874, prpoperty in Sterling.
The newly wed couple is found in the 1865 Illinois State Census as follows in the city of Sterling:
Fluck, Aaron 1 F 10-20 years old; 1 M 30-40 years old
The young family of Aaron Fluck, Sr., and Lydia Ann Tombow can be found in the 1870 Federal Census of Hume Township (Entry 88/87):
Fluck, Aaron, age 36, male, born PA, farmer
Lydia, age 24, female, born PA
McClellan, age 4, male, born IL
John, age 3, male, born IL Ida (Dec.) age 6 months, female, born IL.
The 1880 Federal Census records the growing family of Aaron Fluck, Sr. and Lydia Ann Tombow (Hume Township, entry 88/88)
Fluck, Aaron, age 47, farmer, born in Pa as were parents
Lydia A., age 34, wife, born in PA as were parents
McClellan, age 13, son, born in Il
John, age 12, son, born in Il
Ida M. age 10, dau. born in IL
Aaron (Jr.), age 7, son, born in IL
Kate, age 3, daughter, born IL
Matilda, age 1, daughter, born IL.
Two other children, Benjamin Fluck and William Fluck, were also born to Aaron, Sr. and Lydia Tombow Fluck, but according to the biographical sketch mentioned above were deceased by 1883.
Aaron Fluck did not serve in the Civil War except for a month long impressed service in Arkansas where he happened to be on a trip at the outbreak of hostilities. He escaped from encampment and returned to the North up the Mississippi on the last boat allowed through the Southern blockade. The Chapman Brothers' biographical sketch, noted above, does not mention further service for the North. With the National Civil War Soldier Registry nearly totally computerized in 1993 it may eventually be possible to locate a record of his Arkansas experience there or with the National Archives.
Aaron's obituary appeared the day he died in the 6 October 1899 Sterlng Gazette as follows:
"Aaron Fluck, an old and respected citizen of this county, died suddenly this morning at his home east of the city while sitting in his chair, from the effects of heart disease with which he has long been a sufferer. The deceased was in the 67th year of his age at the time of his death, he having been born September 22, 1833.
"Aaron Fluck came to this city in 1857 from Bucks County, PA, his birthplace and the home of his ancestors for two previous generations. Just previous to the breaking out of the war of the rebellion, Mr Fluck went to Arkansas, where he remained but a short time owing to his political sentiments which favored the Union. He returned to the city and in 1864 he purchased a farm and married Miss Lydia Tombow, who survives him. Six children, all grown, survive their father.
"Aaron Fluck was a fine type of the men who have done so much to build up this glorious western country. Thrifty, honest, and public spirited, he was always ready to do his share in pushing forward any measure for the public good. His long and active life in the community has won him the respect and confidence of all and his death will be looked upon as a public loss."
Lydia Tombow subsequently remarried to Thomas Coates 12 February 1907 (Marriage Lic. 12609) The 1910 Census For Whiteside County, IL, has the following entry for Thomas and Lydia (Sterling, Ward 2, entry 374/374):
Coates, Thomas, age 78, retired farmer, born In SC as were parentsLydia, age 63, wife, born in PA as were parents
Fluck, Matilda, age 31, single, step daughter (to Thomas), bookkeeper and baker
Lydia Ann Tombow died 15 August 1924 in her home on East Ninth Street in Sterling, IL. She was survived by five of her eight children: McClelland Fluck of Sterling, John Fluck of Hume Township, aaron Fluck, Jr., of Nelson, Kate Fluck Winter, wife of Howard Winter, residing in Independence, IA, and Matilda Fluck, who lived with her mother until her death. (Obituary, August, 1924, Sterling Gazette).
Aaron Fluck, Sr., and Lydia Ann Tombow are buried in Riverside Cemetery, Sterling, IL. Their graves are marked with a large granite headstone.
Aaron Fluck, Sr., and Lydia Ann Tombow had eight children: William ("Willie") Fluck, McClellan Fluck, John Fluck, Ida May Fluck, Aaron Fluck, Jr., Kate Matilda Fluck, and Matilda Fluck, according to the Fluck Family Bible currently in the possession of Lydia's grandson, Ralph ("Pete") Fluck, Luther Road, Rock Falls, IL.
