I've "rescued" three photographs belonging to the PAUZE Family of New
Hampshire. The first is a photograph of Leonard PAUZE which appears to have
been taken in the early 1900's with his birthday noted as 20 Jul 1906.
Leonard looks to be about 2 years old at the time the photograph was taken.
The second photograph is of Sylva PAUZE and was taken at the Alfred PAUZE
Studio in Lebanon, NH. This photograph appears to have been taken after 1910
with Sylva likely about 6 years old at the time. It may well be a first
communion photograph as he is holding a rosary and what is likely a small
bible as well.
The third photograph is one of Leonard and William PAUZE which was taken at
the A. Posey Studio in Lebanon, NH. This photograph is also taken in the
early 1900's with Leonard about 3 years old and William about 4 years.
Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information
regarding this family:
Leonard H. PAUZE was born 20 Jul 1907 in Lebanon, NH to parents Alfred J.
PAUZE (b. 1882) and Olia CHAREST (b. 1876). Leonard was one of 8 children
born to this couple including, William; Leonard; Alphee; Rita; Adrian
Sylvia; Marie Blanche; and Paul PAUZE plus one other unnamed. Leonard
married Yvonne (1904-1973) and they had at least one child. Leonard died 4
Mar 1992 in Wilberham or Springfield, MA.
William A. PAUZE was b. 16 Jul 1904 and died 9 Oct 1993 and is buried in the
Saint Louis Cemetery in Caledonia, WI. William had a son Maurice F. PAUZE
(1929-2009) who is buried in the same cemetery.
