Dave,
Glad to hear from you. I would have gotten back to you sooner but we've been having some 60 - 70 mph winds and I got knocked off the computer in the middle of composing my message twice so I decided to wait until the storm was over.
Xavier Charlebois appears on the 1871 Canadian census but never after that. Xavier Charleswood appears on the 1880 U.S. census (Ohio) but never before that, sooooooooo, I think I have the correct Xavier Charlebois.
Xavier Charleswood (b. May 03, 1827 in Quebec, d. December 27, 1902 in Ohio) married Polly Ann King (b. September 08, 1835, d. June 1913 in Ohio).
They had at least one son, George Xavier Charleswood, (b. August 10, 1854 in Ohio. d. April 08, 1929 in Garett, Indiana).
He married Selena Reichelderfer (b. July 07, 1861 d. December 29, 1943 in Garett Indiana).
NOTE: I have the family tree for the Reichelderfers all the way back to about 1600. They originated near Heidleberg Germany on this geneology.
George Xavier Charleswood and Selena Reichlederfer had quite a few children, one of which was my grandmother, Ople Kitty Charleswood (her first name was also spelled Opal on some records). She was born September, 15, 1893 in Garett Indiana and died in May 1985 in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
Ople Kitty Charleswood married Rouse Leonard Hopper (b. March 15, 1888 in Ohio d. April 06, 1968 in Minneapolis Minnesota.
Ople and Rouse had only one son, Raymond Edward Hopper,
my father (b. June 30, 1914 in Garrett Indiana d. August 07, 2002 in St. Louis Park, Minnesota)
This is pretty much the straight line story. There are many brothers and sisters that I left out but as near as I can tell we are related to just about every Charleswood in the U.S.
My email address is wrhopper(a)hotmail.com
Let me know if you want additional information 'cuz I've got quite a bit more.

I believe I'm a descendant of the Xavier Charlebois who appears on the 1871 Canadian census as living in Glengarry County Ontario.
I KNOW that I'm a descendant of Xavier Charlebois who was born in Quebec May 03, 1827 and lived in the 1000 Island area of Ontario. He then moved to Cuyahoga Falls Ohio where he changed his name to Charleswood and died on December 27, 1902 (in Cuyahoga Falls).
I have more information about his marriage(s) and descendants if anyone is interested.
I'm ALMOST certain that this is the correct Xavier Charlebois but I'm new at this geneology stuff so I'd like confirmation from some of you folks that know what you're doing.
Thanks

Hi Shirley
The very first place to start would be to get a copy of her fathers birth, marriage and death certificates, assuming these events all took place in the US.
Does she know her grandparents names? If she doesn't know them yet, they should be on her fathers documents.
Does she know if her grandparents died in the US or did they return to Canada before they died?
You didn't mention the name Charlebois in your query. Does your daughter-in-law think she has Charlebois ancestry?
I do have four marriages of a female Daze to a male Charlebois in my file but I don't have any male Daze's who married a female Charlebois.

Hi, my daughter-in-law's maiden name is Daze' and she has never met anyone with her last name. Her Father was Ralph (they called him Tom) Daze' and she is interested in doing research on his side of the family. He died in a car accident in Tulsa, OK around 1972 when she was just 6 yrs old. She says her Grandfather was French Canadian and never had a citizenship for the USA he just came down and worked here (? in MO or OK). I think his 1st name (her Father's) was actually Ralph Daze'. Do you have any tips for her in her research? Thanks, Shirley Grnyshirl(a)aol.com

Hello Dave,
Well gosh darn, I thought YOU were our list administrator! Why don't you
contact Rootsweb and make it official?!
I will check the limits of "Vaudreuil parish" at the relevant time period but I
rather suspect the last person - St. Timothée is in the Beauharnois area just
off the island and closer to the current Vaudreuil than the other sites. The
St. Benoit families are on my tree and that is in Deux-Montagnes county, quite
a bit north of Vaudreuil across the Ottawa river junction with the St.
Lawrence. Buckingham is too far north-west, also on the Ottawa River. Clarence
Creek is in Prescott-Russell Ontario - too far west, wrong province, and that
Basile died in Lemieux Ont in Jan.1921. His wife Emilie Charlebois was my
great-grandfather's half sister. I once sent you a picture of their son Félix
who strongly resembles a certain Quebec pop star....
I suggest you put a note in your data base with the St. Timothée family in case
any descendants contact you or this list - just in case. Maybe they heard of
this story too. Thanks!

Hi Monique

Buckingham
Basile Arsene Charlebois married to Emelie Charlebois on August 05, 1878 at
Clarence Creek
Basile Odilon Charlebois married to Sophie Julien on October 18, 1871 at

While searching in the Sherbrooke "Le Pionnier" on microfilm for my
maternal family, I found the following Charlebois item, dated 30 June
1898. The French original follows my translation. Perhaps our wonderful
List Administrator can identify this person? I can't place him on my
tree.
"An amusing event recently took place in the parish of Vaudreuil. An
honest farmer in the area, Basile Charlebois, had an employee named
Brunet, whose nickname was "Torner". One day the latter went to the city
and on his returned, announced that his wife had died and he wished to
bury her in Vaudreuil. Since his employee was penniless, Mr. Charlebois
provided a black suit and a few dollars, and promised to meet the
grieving widow with two coaches at the G.T.R. station, to transport the
remains to the church. The honest farmer was waiting at the station
long before the usual arrival time, black crepe hanging from his hat.
First one train - no one. Then the second - still no one. It was only
when the third train had come and gone that he realized he had been
tricked. He swore, but too late, that he would never be taken in again.
"Torner" was still at large."
