I have identified a fairly large family of Crepeaus in the St Joseph Church South Bend
Records on my County Mayo Beginnings Website on page
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~irlmayo2/stjoseph_church_irish_families...
The parents were Eleonora Bernard and Ovid Crepeau. Their children were Josephina Ellena,
Wilfredio Eusebius, Lilly Belle, Bertha Ellen, Louisa Della, Matilda Isabella, Virginia
Pearl, Melvin Ovide and Thomas Oliveri (they were all born between 1870 and 1888- that
matches the ages of Maud and Louisa that you mention. (Although Crepeau appears to be
french, they are in my Irish in South Bend section because of the surname Bernard and its
potential irish origins). The South Bend Genealogical Society has access to these church
records, marriage records and obituaries that may yield clues to all of their
descendants. Hope this may be of some help and you find a connection!
