Delia (Barbeau) LaRouche has French origins.

Delia (Barbeau) LaRouche was a Wisconsinite.

Delima (Delia) Barbeau

• Her ancestral French name with her French dite name was Barbeau dite Boisdore.
• Her given surname was Barbeau. Her father later changed his surname to Baraboo after migrating to Wisconsin in part probably to distinguish the family line from his two brothers who also migrated to Wisconsin at the same time. It is possible that her given surname Barbeau transitioned to Baraboo before she married Charles Laroche.Baraboo-1 11:59, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Family History

French Canadian families began arriving around 1865. (Wisconsin Door County Area)

Charles and Delia LaRouche (Baraboo) played an important part in organizing the first Catholic Church."

"Two churches were established in the area's early development. St. John the Baptist Catholic Church was founded in 1876. The church was located on the corner of Hillside Road and Highway 42. Early in the new century some parishioners wanted to build a new church at a different location. The controversy ended with the gift of land from Charles and Delia LaRouche (Baraboo) in 1901, and the new church was built on Highway 42 and School Road in 1909.

Calvary United Methodist Church was organized in 1912 as the Egg Harbor Union Society. The early stone church was completed in 1924. The building is used for special events. A larger church was built and dedicated in 1965. Both are near the intersection of County E and Highway 42."

"With Parish life being the focal point for many social activities during the early 1900’s, one important activity occurred at the Charles LaRouche home. The choir met there for practice with the dedicated Carmodys and Reslers walking miles to be there. Two violinists, Tom Cassidy and Grace Carmody, along with organist, Laura LaRouche, volunteered their talents to make Sunday worship of our Lord as beautiful as possible. It is nice to know that this type of dedication continues today!

As the village of Egg Harbor grew, there was a movement to build a church in the Village. A controversy had arisen between the Irish and French families about the location of the church. Finally land was deeded to the congregation on January 9, 1901, by Charles and Delia LaRouche (Picture #45), and the present site was accepted as the location for the new church, and Father Nolin, O.M.I., the pastor of Baileys Harbor, set about to build a new church."
