Hi,
My name is Marcel Chabot. I was born in St-Lazare-de-Bellechasse, a small village near
Quebec city. Henry Chabot (originally named Lauradan) was probably born in Somersworth,
because his parents, Pierre Chabot and Aurélie Bilodeau, came in this town about 1899 with
all their family to find work in the mills. They returned in Quebec 3 or 4 years later
because 4 of their children died meantime. The oldest children, Maria married to Pierre
Lambert and Alfred stayed their. Henry returned probably in Somerswortd when he was a
young man, I suppose, maybe with the help of his sister Maria.
Henry (Lauradan) was hence my uncle, brother of my father Alphée, born in 1896. This one
told me, when I was a child, he had learned to speak english the time he leaved in
Somersworth with the family. I knew my aunt Maria because she came sometimes in St-Lazate
when I was a small child, but I never met uncle Henry. Aunt maria had children with Pierre
Lambert but we lost their tracks.
I am the secretary of the Chabot's Association. Our website address is :
www.webchabot.com
My personal website is :
www.sitechabot.com/WebAlph In this website you can find, among
the family members of Pierre Chabot and Aurélie Bilodeau, the name of Lauradan (Henry) and
those of his siblings, with a photo of him when he was a young man.
Il would be glad to share some information with you if you wish. I would like to gather
more information on the descendants of the members of the famiiy of Pierre et Aurélie who
have established in USA around 1900'.
